Alternative flags for French Irish Regiment Berwick from the 1721 Manuscript

These French Irish flags will just not let go, it seems. Here is the alternative set of designs for Berwick from the 1721 manuscript:

  1. Outstanding again, David! I am looking through my Lead Pile to see if enough 18mm French infantry are present to field a battalion or two of these units. While my SYW focus has been on the Prussian-Austrian-Russian Theatre of Ops, your work is pushing me in the direction of expansion.

  2. Thanks, Jonathan! :-) I can imagine that the French might just have loaned a brigade of Irish to the Austrians - so I hope you are able to find enough figures to do it...

    If you do, please send pictures of the troops and their flags! Thanks.

    All the best,

    David.
