Can anyone tell what head is for what or, can I use any for anything - do I have to put the different types together as companies? Attachments:

French infantry wore a round pompom. Flank companies wore a double plume. Ideally you want 4 tufts 4 tufts 4 bobbles 4 bobbles 4 bobbles 4 bobbles 4 bobbles.
The front 4 are voltigeurs. They have a yellow bobble and green plume. (Some battalions reversed that) They are the light company. They skirmish. Base them individually too. If you’re short of plumes that’s a green bobble.
Next row is the grenadiers. They’re elite company. They have a red bobble and red plume. If you’re short of plumes just a red bobble.
1st company dark green bobble I think
2nd company skyblue
3rd company orange(deep yellow)
4th company violet (lilac)
They’re all fusiliers
I’m trying to see if I’ve a book that’s not packed which shows it well.
Turns out voltigeur shakos And grenadier shakos should be taller too. My grenadiers tend to have bearskins.

So yeah, 4 pages of tuft variations and shoulder strap variations in funcken depending on the year, company, and type of battalion

They should have brass eagles or plates and a red white and blue rosette, but I don’t remember painting rosettes!!! I really want the page out of the Perry miniatures french infantry but I can’t find it online |

I know, Warlord make us buy these separately so the starter set is not as good value as it could have been
