    Description

    British heavy cavalry was among the most effective shock troops of the Napoleonic Wars - and this epic kit brings them completely to the tabletop: three regiments with eleven bases, as well as a mounted 6-pounder battery of the Royal Horse Artillery. The unmistakable highlight is the famous charge at Waterloo, where the Household Cavalry and the Union Brigade shattered the French columns - and advanced too far themselves.

    Product details

    Background & context

    At the beginning of the 19th century, the British Army's heavy cavalry was considered one of the most feared cavalry formations in Europe. At Waterloo on June 18, 1815, the Union Brigade - including the legendary Royal Scots Greys - together with the Household Division, attacked the advancing French corps in a devastating charge, shattering their infantry columns. However, the attack spiraled out of control: having ridden far beyond their objective, the exhausted cavalrymen were cut down by the French cavalry and suffered heavy losses. The accompanying Royal Horse Artillery provided mobile fire support during the advance with their fast-moving 6-pounders.

    On the tabletop

    This box lets you field a British heavy cavalry brigade for Waterloo in 13.5 mm Black Powder games: two bases of Royal Scots Greys, three of Household Cavalry, six of Heavy Dragoons and three Royal Horse Artillery 6-pounders. The heavy horsemen are built for the massed charge. At Waterloo they shattered d'Erlon's columns, but then rode on too far and were cut up in turn. So keep a reserve back and let the battery prepare the attack.
