Dragones y Chevauxlegers Austriacos de la Guerra de los Siete Años, 1756–1763
Austrian dragoon regiments consisted of ten dragoon and two grenadier companies, formed in six squadrons of two companies each. The elite horse grenadier squadron often fought detached from its parent regiment, either in the advance guard of an army, or as a mounted element of the Austrian grenadier corps. The dragoons pictured here are from Dragoner-Regiment Johann August Herzog zu Sachsen-Gotha. These 40 mm figuras have been cast from Prince August moulds. The figuras are painted with artist oils, and they are based on an upscaled 100 x 100 mm cavalry brigade stand compatible with the Volley & Bayonet game system. The unit represents a cavalry brigade of 1000 to 1500 men.
In 1758, an additional Chevauleger-Regiment Jung-Löwenstein was formed as part of Dragoner-Regiment Christian Fürst zu Löwenstein-Wertheim. This formation was separated from its parent regiment by decree dated 22 Marzo 1759, and increased to ten companies, to satisfy the increased demand for light cavalry. In 1760, Dragoner-Regimenter Herzog von Württemberg, Sachsen-Gotha, Jung-Modena, Zweibrücken, and Erzherzog Joseph, were converted to Chevaulegers for the duration of the war.
