Precisely. Unless they happen to be Bavarians, or infantry giving the artillery a helping hand . . .

So what your saying is Bavarians have balls but Prussians dontbiggrin   I thought it a minor pointwink with covers on its very difficult to tell, I looked at hundreds of pics(private albums) I have in an effort to find Artillerymen in Picklehaubs in action seems feldmutze was more normal except on the march at least in my sample... the real gripe I think may be that the officer appears to be on parade, an overcoat and helmet cover would have been better and ditch the sword for a pistol... but a great improvement, hopefully the moulding will go ok on this one... have yet to see the gun though and I think that will be the make or break...

Cheerssmile

I've seel few movies, in which this howitzer was charged. It wasn't in the way Strelets showed it. In reality four soldiers carried the shell on a diffrent to Strelets device
