HaT 1:72 Napoleonic Hungarian Infantry (Marching) 8334

Despite being a significant portion of the armies of the Austrian emperor during the Napoleonic Wars, it has taken a very long time for a set of Hungarian troops to make their debut. In the Austrian Army all troops were labelled as ‘German’, regardless of where they came from, unless they were from the Kingdom of Hungary, and the Hungarians were noted for the quality of their regular soldiers, perhaps partly due to the fact that most were volunteers rather than forced to serve. Indeed it was said that the French would make a point of mentioning when they faced Hungarian troops as these were considered superior to those from the rest of the empire.
