French Army - Cavalry + Light troops: Flags to Print (28 plates)

The 28 plates bring together the flags of all the Gendarmerie, the cavalry, the husars, the dragoons regiments and the light troops that made up the French army in Germany during the Seven Years' War. These flags were drawn according actual written descriptions from the period and to photos or drawings of flags presently in museums. For the cavalry, flags from the periods before and after the Seven Years' War are shown. 8 flags for the Gendarmerie, 91 for the cavalry, 3 for the hussars, 18 for the dragoons, and 21 other flags for the light troops.  141 flags in total!

For each regiment, the 'colonel' flag (when it exists) and the 'ordonnance' flag are proposed. 3 to 8 flags per plate. Each flag is 40mm in height. Each plate in A4 print format is joined by another plate, with strictly identical content, but in Letter print format. Depending on the scale of your miniatures, you will need to reduce the print size to get the height of flags you want. During the Seven Years' War, the colour (or soie) of an infantry flag measured between 1.50 and 1.80m high, that of a cavalry flag measuring between 50 and 60cm high.

Please note that the 'colonel' flag was only assigned to the 1st battalion of each regiment. If the regiment consisted of several battalions, the 2nd, 3rd or 4th battalions did not have a 'colonel' flag but had an additional 'ordonnance' flag in order to replace the 'colonel' flag.
