Epic Battles: British Highlanders & Riflemen by Warlord Games

Black Powder Epic Battles: British Highlanders & Riflemen

Wellington's allied army was a motley mix of different nationalities and troop types. None looked more exotic than the three Highland regiments at the Battle of Waterloo.

The contents of this plastic box allow you to field all three Highland units: the 42nd Black Watch, the 79th Cameron Highlanders, and the 92nd Gordon Highlanders. The Highland units had earned a reputation for fierce fighting during the Peninsular Campaign and fought bravely at Quatre Bras and Waterloo the following day. Each is commanded by a smartly dressed, mounted brigade commander.

No British army is complete without the magnificent Rifle Brigade! Three battalions of the 95th fought at Waterloo in their distinctive dark green uniforms. Their efficiency with the Baker rifle was well known to the French, who were not keen on competing with them! The vast majority of the three units fought at Waterloo in formation, with some deployed in battle formation in the sandpit next to La Haye Sainte. These figures can also be painted to represent the valiant German defenders of this important farm. Finally, there are three 5.5" Royal Artillery howitzers in support, hurling shell after shell over the heads of their troops and onto the French lines.

This plastic set contains enough models to field a complete brigade consisting of three Highlander infantry regiments of 80 men each, 24 skirmishing 95th Rifles, a Royal Artillery 5.5-inch howitzer battery with three guns, and three mounted Highlander brigade commanders.
