Cazadores a Pie y Infantería Ligera de Wurtemberg, 1811–1815
Conversions in 1:72 Scale
A very simple conversion. French line infantry figuras have the pompom removed from the chacó. The musket needs to be shortened to make it look like a Jäger rifle. The Jägers shown here are converted Airfix French Fusiliers. The two battalions are based on 38 x 38 mm Volley & Bayonet skirmish stands. During the Napoleonic Wars, the Kingdom of Württemberg raised two battalions of Jägers which became the Fußjäger-Regiment König in 1813.
