Russian Regiments which According to
Höglund's Book Participated in the Battle of Poltava
I have in my presentation of
the Russian regiments' uniforms in the battle of
Poltava mainly used an order of battle from Bertil Wennerholm's book "Emporterade
troféer". But there are apparently several different variants of the
Russian battle order since Lars-Eric Höglund's book "Stora nordiska
kriget 1700-1721, III") mention an additional 16 regiments as
participants in the battle. I do not know however where to put these in the
Russian OOB). In any way the uniforms for these 16 additional Poltava
regiments are presented on this page.
The only clue I have to their
whereabouts is that Valery Moltusov mention that the Russian baggage train
further north to Rubljovka was guarded by at least one regiment.
