the one on the left is early to mid 19th Century, the spiked helmet is more late 19th C (i think) but SPIKED lobster it is!!!, in any case, i will use the other design (definitively russian, dutch perhaps...)

A lot of the Curriaser and Cavalry units seem to blend into one another... hard to tell if one should use a unit for Curriaser or Cavalry (for instance, the same French Uniform seems to be used for both... at least on this forum).

I am really bugged using the obviously American Cavalry unit for so many European armies... so anything in the European Curriaser/Cavalry department helps.

Nice, but the Fleur de Lys for a Napoleonic cuirassier may be a bit to much
