That is the correct company color for Le Roi. It's not Royal Rousillon, at least for the 9 Years War or the War of Spanish Succession, which had 4 different color quarters and no fleur de lis in the cross.
@@warrenbruhn5888 The color pattern for Royal Rousillon didn't change from 1667 till 1791, so you're right. I know because it was the same exact pattern in the Seven Years' War (blue, red, light green, and feuille mort cantons (counterclockwise from upper hoist side); white cross with 65 fleur de lys).
Not really, you need to understand that the amount of smoke of the muskets, made a battlefield look like a mistbank. It would have been the only way to identify your own armies. That's the reason all armies of that time (and quite some time after) had very bright and colorful uniforms.
If you march 100 miles before it would start to be khaki after the fifth black powder shot it would be turning gray. They only bleached in the sun anyway.
Magnificent! The tune sounds somewhat like Folie d’Espagne.
Oui , ça n'a rien d'une marche militaire et tout d'une folie d'Espagne !

Thanks.
See the flag.
Those white uniforms must have made dandy targets. "Shoot me please! I'm over here!"

wait until you see the british
In Louis XIVs time it was more greyish which can be good camouflage in the smoky battlefields of the time with all those cannons
