Elessar2590's Grande Armee Project
Feel the Very Ground Shake!!!
I’ve finally finished half of the Cuirassiers.
Now I just need to base them although I think I might leave that step for last so I can do it all at once and get a consistent standard across the whole force.
Cuirassier’s are pretty much the kings of Heavy Cavalry in most Napoleonic war games. In Sharpe Practice they can take almost anything head on and still come out in one piece, in Black Powder their charge packs a massive punch while in Napoleon at War they force the enemy to re-rell off successful saves.
That being said if you want to take Cuirassiers in a Points Match game of Napoleon of War then they’ll cost 500 Points (Regular game is 2000) for only two Squadrons so use them wisely.
That’s all for now, back to the Infantry for a while I think.
Let me know in the comments below if there’s anything in particular you’d like to see from this project in the future.
The next post will be some more mechanics of “Napoleon at War” plus hopefully some painted Artillery.
Awesome work on that cuirassiers cavalry! I love the definition of the dark outlines between the different colors of the uniforms. Even the mustaches look different between the different men!
Thanks @oriskany
Although I did notice just now that my Trumpeter appears to have a golden mustache, I might want to fix that.
