I'm am enjoying painting these 'big battalions' and here is the two battalions of French regiment Touraine. It's a regiment with a long and distinguished record and for much of the war it was commanded by Jean-Baptiste-François Desmarets, Comte de Maillebois who was promoted to brigadier on 19 September 1708, then maréchal de camp on 8 March 1718, lieutenant-general on 22 December 1731 and maréchal de France on 11 February 1741.
The lovely flags are, of course, by Dave Morfitt of Not by Appoinment.
