GNW Saxon Infantry.

Marching through the last of the daylight is the last of my GNW Russian Infantry, this time painted as the Saxon Regiment Sacken. A rather splendid sight, or is that just the effect of the red coats. although the majority of the unit are Zvezda, the musicians are from Strelets

I used the excellent Northern wars site by Dan Schoor for the uniforms and colours. There were Saxons at the siege of Vienna, but I'm not sure if the uniforms were exactly the same.

They certainly tempt me to continue with a few more Saxon units for the period
