Generic Confederation

The Confederation of the Rhine provided many contingents to the French army in Spain. They adopted the French organisation, including grenadier and voltigeur elite companies. Their uniform was either French or German in style and comprised either a long-tailed, double-breasted, French-type 'habit', open to expose the waistcoat, a short-tailed, double-breasted jacket similar to the French 'habit-vest', closed at the waist or a short-tailed, single breasted jacket similar to a Prussian 'kollet'. Figures wearing the French 'habit' can be sourced from the 1809 range and what is necessary are generic figures, in 'campaign' dress, to represent figures wearing a jacket-type 'habit-veste' and 'kollet'.
