More Good News

Some more good news for me today and that is HaT’s, 8197 Prussian Hussar’s set is also near completion and another set I cannot wait to get my hands on. But as I have already started painting some of my Prussian army for this year, these will just add to my list of units to paint for now.
This set also comes with separate arms and weapons including a bugle, but again no officer. There will be 12 figures in a set and now my buying list is starting to get long again.

Brunswick Cavalry


Some good news for me today and that is the HaT 8174 Brunswick Cavalry set are near completion and I can wait to get my hands on these. Although I have not even started to paint any Brunswick units yet, these will give the gaming table a real devils look as they are dressed in black with the skull and cross bones badge on their hats.
The set comes with separate arms and weapons including a bugle but no officer. The set also contains just one uhlan (lancer) figure per spure, so with 12 figures in a set we get just four lancers in a box. It’s a shame that HaT have done this but maybe in the future they will bring out a complete Uhlan set? I hope that these will be out very soon before the end of the year.
