Warlord's second plastic set for Napoleonic is now up for preorder, unfortunately no sprue shots as of yet. It'll probably be similar to their prussians (mostly one part already)
Price is £18.00
Our latest plastic boxed set is almost here! Cast a weather eye over the steadfast soldiers of the Russian Emperor and place your pre-order – you’ll be first in line when they are released!
The infantry formed the backbone of all armies in the Napoleonic Wars, but no army relied more on its humble private foot soldier than that of Imperial Russia.
These finely detailed plastic models come in a box 32 strong. Included are 4 metal command models (see below).
The models are simplicity to build (glue together body, head and backpack and you’re done!) yet the subtle variety of poses and the ability to swive the heads gives the regiment a uniform look whilst also allowing a lot of variation within it. Brave, stubborn and resilient they had to cope with poor conditions, worse supplies and a cadre of mostly incompetent officers. Whenever western observers spent time with the Russian army they were constantly amazed by the sheer tenacity and good humour of the average infantryman in the face of adversity. This boxed set is designed to allow you to field one regiment of Russian infantry; the variants in the box allow you to both musketeer and grenadiers along with a command section to lead them into battle. We have also provided a selection of flags from a number of regiments so you can get them into the action right away. As you can see from the images above there are optional heads allowing you to make the regiment entirely of grenadiers or totally as musketeers. Of course you can also field a mixed battalion too if you so desire.
