    Product details

    Background & context

    The Compagnies de la Marine were not regular line infantry but were directly subordinate to the French Ministry of Marine and specially trained for colonial service in North America. For generations, they shaped French warfare in the hinterland - from bush warfare to cooperation with Indigenous allies. In the French and Indian War (1754-1763), they formed the military backbone of New France against the expanding British colonial power. Their experience in irregular warfare and their adaptability made them one of the most effective troop types on the North American theater of war.

    On the tabletop

    The Compagnies franches de la Marine were the standing troops of New France and knew the country better than any battalion from Europe. In Black Powder the captain and 19 musketeers make a unit for the small war of raids and withdrawals. Together with Native allies it suits actions in the Ohio valley from 1754, where it was the only standing force immediately available. The poses of the figures are selected at random.
