Here is a listing of Bavarian Flags. Be advised, there is a lot of conjecture regarding the actual Company Flags. Most were either captured, destroyed at disbanding, or some soldier kept it as a souvenir.
There are simply no records of specific Colonels Flags. As Regiments received new Colonels over the years, a new flag would be made for 'His' Regiment. The basis of the flags at the time was made upon information by people far greater in experience in flags.
Anyway, these flags are for the 28mm sized figures. Print Away!
I am developing a passion for my Maurice(Sam Mustafa rule set for the 1700's)Bavarian Army of the War of Spanish Succession and have completed a lot of research to find out how they(The Bavarians) fought under the Elector Max Emmanuel of Bavaria(The Blue King). Over time I am going to add pictures of my 28mm army and also some battles. I will also put in information about the Infantry that were used for the brief four years before most of them fell at the Battles of Schellenberg and Blenheim.

Hi, great job! I am doing the Bavarian Army for the Schellenberg at 1:1 Ratio. A question: how many flags had a battalion? I mean, there was 1 flag per company, but in battle surely less. Do you have any clue? thanks
