More Fusiliers Join Perry Miniatures’ Napoleonic 1806 Prussians
May 25, 2021 by brennon
Perry Miniatures has added a few more sets of Fusiliers into the mix for those wanting to play as the 1806 Prussian Army during their Napoleonic-era Historical games. The new sets are good for those looking to bulk up the rank and file of their army.

There are a couple of painted examples from the new releases including these painted by Stephan Huber. These Fusiliers have a nice scheme, especially when you bring in more of that bright green and the way it contrasts with their khaki-coloured trousers.
You get a similar splash of colour with these Fusiliers that you can see below...

Again, very much designed so that they can bulk up the rank and file of your army. The two other options from Perry Miniatures allow you to then lead these Fusiliers into battle. You've got two different Command options with your leaders either Standing or Marching into the fray.

Always fun seeing more of the command figures that get added into the mix. This is where you get your extra dose of character and can start building up a backstory for your units. I always like trying to assign characteristics to the various "champions" of units. Maybe this one is brash and likes to charge or another fellow is very reserved and likes to let others do the fighting.
I'm sure that's not really very competitive but it does make for good storytelling on the tabletop. There are plenty more of these Prussians for you to check out so make sure to go rooting around on their webstore for more.
Are you liking the look of these new Fusiliers?

Thay are stunning looking figures for Napoleonic battles.
As always the figures from the Perry’s are fantastic.
Sadly too early a period for my main Napoleonic Purssian Army but I will admit I’ve very tempted by these for something more skirmished based such as shakos and bayonets.
On a historic point of view, its intersting that the Fusiliers uniform didnt change that much post the 1806 disaster at Jena, shoko changed a bit and they got made the tunic a bit simpler.
