THE combined forces of Britain and Hanover - yes, I know it is Hannover in German, or even Hannober - do not match in number those of the main European powers, but their commander King George II will be expecting help from Austria.

| Two-thirds of the Pragmatic Army? |
Behind three 9pdr guns are (left to right) battalions of Royal Foot, von Klinkowström and von Zastrow. The battalions behind them are Royal-Buffs grenadiers, The Buffs and 5th Marines.
George II is between the foot and the horse, which consist of The Green horse, King's Own horse, Royal Horse Guards, von Aldeleben dragoons and Queen's Own dragoons.
In all, the British-Hanoverians have six battalions of foot, three squadrons of heavy horse, two squadrons of dragoons, two guns and a general.
