Warlord Games: Revised Napoleonic French & British Waterloo Infantry Sets


Warlord Games: Having listened to feedback from the Black Powder community, we’ve decided to amend the content of our Napoleonic regiment sets. Our Napoleonic French Line Infantry 1806-1810, and British Line Infantry (Waterloo) boxed sets are changing from 36 down to a more manageable 24 models.

again Warlord goof around because of his constant lack of respect for the historicity of its products.
Among Chassuer-a-Cheval they have totally forgotten the elite company, whose uniform was different from that of normal Chassuer ....
As for the infantry, however, already with the previous editions of the infantry in the box, there was a shortage of figures to deploy elite companies. Now there will be only five figures where it would take eight (4 Grenadiers and Voltigeurs 4) for the French Infantry and at least six for the British infantry.
Once again, my congratulations to the Warlord for its accuracy

An alternative are the Victrix and Perry infantry boxed sets, those include sufficient numbers of elite company members if I'm not mistaken. Probably a matter of saving the expensive tooling for another plastic injection mould. Regarding the mounted chasseurs maybe they intend to release the elite company in metal, worth asking if you want them and point out the error. Cheers

Actually I bought both boxes Infantry French and English, and I cried when I opened and I had in my hands the sprue.I do not tell you when I opened Chasseur-a-Cheval. Add straps to three figures is not just that simple.
The problem is that you do not ever show any product, but only some miniatures painted .... the surprise comes at the end with the regret for the money spent.
