Yes Very nice army eventually I will get to making an Austrian army.

Since Bonaparte has raised a lot of new troops, we have to be prepared:

Yes Indeed, My Prussian's are at 80 Infantry strong with a couple cannons and Blucher of course. I'll try and get pictures A.s.a.p.

[Bonaparte]

Nice army Andreas.

I like it because an Austrian Lego Army is really something unique.

I can't wait until the BS-gallery is public and I can see the rest of the pictures.

Today I received the missing parts. Now the cannon is complete including an escort of light dragoons.

Really great stuff. Is that a wurst-wagen in front of the cannon?

[woody64]

Yes it is.

In one of my available paintings it's equipped with 4 artillerists.

The horses are equipped with riders from the train staff.

And here's a picture from the cavalry (light dragoons and cuirassiers).

In another thread I was asked about some major commanders of the Austrian army. Here are some:

Carl Schwarzenberg: ambassador in paris and key person in negotiation of the marriage of napoloeon with marie-luise (daugther of emporer franz). General of the Austrian supply corps during the rusland invasion of napoleon (arranging as less losses as possible for the austrians). Austrian General at the battle of Leipzig.

Archeduke Carl: Winner of Aspern. Looses in Wagram but got bright respect from napoleon when leaving the battlefield in controled order. Main constructor of modernization inside the austrian army.

Field marshal Radetzky: Wagram, Leipzig. But inmortal due to the Radetzky marsh by Strauss father (the traditional last part of the new years concert of the austrian philharmonics).

General Mack: Maybe known by the handing over of ulm. Therfore he was sentenced to death by an austrian military cord but that was changed to imprisonment by emporer franz himself.

Johann von Liechtenstein: Although successor of his brother as sovereign from liechtenstein he was the main austrian commander at austerlitz. Also he was involved in wagram, hohenlinden and aspern.
