The Nylands Regiment of Sweden

**Prince of Darkness** · May 15, 2010, 06:31 AM

The Nylands Regiment of Sweden distinguished itself at Battle of Siikajoki in the Finnish war of 1808, where under command of the legendary general Carl von Dobeln, stopped the advance of the numerically superior Russian forces (279 vs 1080 men).
I wonder if someone can provide a picture of their uniforms? Can be a great source for DLC
