Another well-dressed man

Another Russian general has been sitting half-finished on my desk for a long time. There is no question, these guys dressed pretty smart. Its a good thing that the Russian army in the Napoleonic wars had rather a surplus of generals, because I have rather a good number of them at the moment. It did indeed happen that a major general would command no more than two battalions, so that I would be on solid ground having very small brigades. This goes for both the 1808 campaign in Finland and the 1813 in Germany for example.
