Preussen: Regiment Towarczys

[HKDW]

Vor plausibel klingenden Regeln wie der generellen gelb-weiß-Oppostion bei Regiment und Bataillon Towarczys muß man sich hüten: zum Beispeil hatten ja beide Einheiten rote, mit weißem Band eingefaßte Leibbinden. Ich hätte da a priori auch gelben Bandbesatz beim Regiment erwartet.

Das stimmt schon, trotzdem stimmt die Regeln bei den Satteldecken, oder eben den Knöpfen, Doepler zeigt das ja sehr schön.

Sans-Souci bat mich, einen schönen Beitrag von G.L. aus dem Soldatenfreund hier hochzuladen, da die Datei zu groß war.

Hi all,

As a follow-up update the link given above is now lost. Another lead to an erased web site; to let you copy if interested (as I do) now found on the Wayback Machine at:-

I'd earnestly suggest that anyone referencing the web data frequently, to download the entire site page by page as best you can as it's disappearance from the main web is sadly complete.

NB- A month later and the first url has returned to life! However I still canot translate or read the original German.

Hi all,

Another question from me, directed to HKWD again- Sir, as consultant to the Perrys or associates, is there any reason you may be aware of that these units (despite the low numbers!) have not been produced already in their Early Prussian series?

and

Surely the most obvious- gamers are notorious for extravagant units, and this one (even if not in major operations) are likely to be purchased in large numbers ‼️

Thank you for your indulgence,

I am not aware that the Towarczys are available by the Perrys, some other few lines are missing as well., like the Füsilier Schützen, as well as Schützen command packs.

Thank you for the reply.
I am disappointed as I had been led to believe by others they always made 'complete' armies, but sadly not yet for Early Prussia it seems.
Never mind my adventure into Prussia can be some time off anyway.
I have used Perrys only for some few Austrian troops (Kavallerie Batterien),

I have had a reply from Alan Perry in this - good news as such -
" Yes, I am planning on making Towarzcys lancers and at some point horse artillery, pending current work."

Something to look forward to anyway,
