Britain Marches on Waterloo With Black Powder Pre-Orders
February 28, 2014 by dracs
When someone talks about the Napoleonic era, the mind's eye pictures countless ranks of uniformed men marching in step on the field of Waterloo. Now Warlord are helping to bring the iconic conflict to the tabletop with their new British Line Infantry.
These uniformed soldiers of Blighty is a stirring sight and should prove an appealing addition to the collection of any fan of the Napoleonic era.
As well as the infantry of Waterloo, Warlord also have the British Line Infantry who took part in the Peninsular War up for pre-order.
These two plastic kits really showcases Warlord's attention to detail with their historical sculpts. I always admire the company's strive for accuracy with their minis and these display it perfectly.
Are you interested in this period of conflict? Do you plan to pre-order some of these?

It would be interesting to compare these to the Perrys and Victrix equivalents – I would expect the sizes to be close enough for compatibility so you could add more poses to the corresponding units.
was going to say exactly the same thing till I scrolled down and saw that you beat me to it! Nice to see Brits in a marching pose for a change, the victrix Brits are flexible enough but other than the Highlanders (who suit having fuller features) the ham-fistedness of some really prevents you from mixing & matching with other manufacturers…
Thinking the same thing. Perrys tend to be a little more compact and but the Victrix guys should be very very close. I’ll be interested to see too.
I hate this giant hands on Warlord minis. Still maybe the best nap plastic set they made so far. I hope the Perrys will make some marching plastik Brits someday.
