SYW Kreis: Kurtrier Infantry Regiment






This two battalion regiment was the contribution of the Elector/Archbishop of Trier. According to Kronoskaf “The Prince de Soubise rated this regiment as "poor". Indeed it was assembled from scratch and filled up almost exclusively with recruits, whose quality could be improved only with better training and battle experience. For some time the 2nd Battalion was commanded to guard the Reichsarmee artillery park: it was put again in the battle order only by the Elector's persuasion. “
