Following up from the last set of 1812+ Jaegers, here are some of their earlier cousins from the 1789-1810 period.
During this period, the Jaegers had a different shade of green to the regular troops, and all facings (including pom pom colors, turnbacks and trouser stripes), were in regimental colour.
These guys make up the 2 battalions of the 5th Regiment of Jaegers.

Very cool outfits. I think these would easily pass as armed Leprechauns as well, if I ever want to use them in a medieval-fantasy game :)
DeleteArmed Leprechauns? Quite right!
DeleteI must confess to prefering these guys in their more colorful and unique uniforms to their dour 1810+ cousins. I too have the 5th Jagers in my army - hard to resist the light blue facings!
ReplyDeleteNice looking Jaegers and every time you show one of your completed units I want to rebase my army and organise it like yours.
