Campaigns of the Swedish Army
The
following table contain a list of Swedish regiments during the Great
Northern War and shows where they were located during the war (the colours)
and which battles and sieges they participated in (the letters, normal style
for battles and italics for sieges). In the case
of the permanent provincial regiments, the column next to the regimental names
notes their nominal strength. This is missing for the other regiments since both
their actual and nominal strength changed during the course of the war.

Infantry
The table
is not complete because there were several smaller units about which
I almost completely lack information (among other things how long they
existed). In this group are Lewenhaupt's Free Company, which was
part of Lewenhaupt's army, the Enspännarekompaniet, which assisted the
quartermaster general, and the garrison units in Arensburg and Kajana. In
addition, there were other free companies such as Petter Långström's.
