TOPIC: Irish rebellion |
Standard User Posts: 2 John Simons 7th Mar 2016 09:25:05 I'm thinking of building a small force for the 1798 Irish Rebellion. The Irish are easy: Civil War club men and spanish guerrillas will do nicely. What about the government militias though? Cavalry I can use peninsular light dragoons. Infantry I'm thinking either AWI British or Napoleonic Prussians with bicorne. Any thought on which would be better or other ideas entirely. The AWI highlanders will do well for the Scottish feasibles such as the Reays.

British infantry ... Maybe french line in bicornes or early war Prussians and AWI British grenadiers will still look like grenadiers
