AWI Commanders and Chasseurs

As I stated in yesterday's post, I have put together a couple more commanders to lead the troops into battle. First up is a second commander to lead my loyalists. The figure is from Perry's and the officer is in a cut down coat.

Next up are 2 command bases that I put together using some spare command figures from the plastic Continentals boxed set. These guys will act as stand ins until I get some more mounted commanders. I'll probably the relegate them to act as poor command bases in Black Powder.

After finishing the foot element of Emmericks Chasseurs, I finally finished a small mounted element. I used figures from Perry's mounted militia. They look suitably uniformed to act as loyalists.

This brings my loyalists up to 2 small infantry and 1 small mounted unit. I have enough figures to put together 2 more standard loyalist infantry units. Then I'll have to add the mounted component of the British legion. Then it will be back to add more militia and Artillery to my American forces.
