Scots Regulars- League of Augsburg

 

Dumbarton's regiment above.  You will notice a few bonnets have crept in among the hats.  This is not attested in the historical record-but, when on campaign, perhaps permissible. 

Scots Dragoons in the early 1685 grey uniform.  Why? You might ask.  A post  Killiecrankie 'what if' with a second squadron rigged out in the old uniform. In the 'what if' McKay died and Dundee survived to head south,  Here they are on foot.  Horse holders and standing cuddies will follow.

The Scots Royal Regiment of Horse.  

 

The trumpeter's coat is the clue.  Royal at King James's express command no less.  He picked up the bill too, lots of gold lace. Note my attempt at painting blackened armour.  Drilled armoured Bullet Horse in BLB speak.  A bit of a novelty in my Williamite War Armies although I'm beginning to think it shouldn't be.  Maybe there were more armoured cavalry about then than we normally credit.

Anyhow, a full squadron is 'What if' territory for the Williamite War but half a squadron did turn out for Dundee.

The toys are from Essex and Irregular.

That's it so far.  A handy little force.

Coming next a revival of an old project with both Armies complete.
