	Plastic Soldier Review - Esci Lord Cardigan's 11th Hussars
		Since the 11th Hussars were the most spectacularly dressed of the regiments involved, it seems natural for them to portray this regiment first.
		This was the third set of cavalry that Esci produced, and as with so much else in their range they followed a formula, which for the poses was four troopers plus a trumpeter.
		The most obvious problem is that the Hussars had left their pelisses on their transport vessels when they landed, and had not received them by the time of Balaclava.
