Hi All
I’m thinking of doing an Avant – Garde force with an Infantry support and Cuirassier back up for big games.
My question is did the High command keep the Hungarian infantry separate from the German Infantry?
I was thinking of doing my core from Germans and my Support of Hungarians, would this be OK?
Thanks
JP
hi John,
Recruitment in the German areas was partly by voluntary enlistment and a scheme of supplementary conscription, which was for lifetime service before 1802, ten years thereafter. Recruits for Hungarian regiments were organised by the Diet of Hungary by quota. There government
Each regiment had its own zone of recruitment within the Empire. The only exception to this was the Poles of Galicia, who were deemed untrustworthy and were split up across the regiments.
Austro - hungary empire was one country at the time although it had many different modern nations and cultures. there were high ranking hungarian generals.You could do hungarian comanders and units under the Austrian list
For example the british could have a scottish commander and scottish regiments. But it is a british army.
yes excuse me I didn't quite pick up what you asking correctly. Ive edited it.
I'm not talking about allies both are just diferant parts of the empire
John Paul , As long as I know Austrians only separate both (broad) nationalities in regiments, you can even mix german and hungarian regiments in the same brigade.
As an example in bavaria 1805 (ulm)Gyulay Infantry Regiment (hungarian) and Hoch und Deutschmeister Infantry Regiment (German) formed a single brigade.
