Line infantry advanced in close order, often preceded by light infantry units like Chasseur, Tirailleurs or Voltigers. These light units harassed the enemy to disrupt their lines, or to interrupt their line of command targeting officers, drummers, and standard bearers. Even the Imperial Guard had light infantry units in its ranks.
This Italeri kit contains figures representing the three main elements of a French regiment – fusiliers, grenadiers and voltgeurs. There were normally four fusilier companies and one each of grenadiers and voltigeurs in a battalion. The 3 frames are identical with fusiliers in the first two rows with the third row with two figures each of grenadiers and voltgeurs. The figures are represented with Bardin uniform as introduced into the French army starting in 1812.
This kit is great addition to your diorama or miniatures gaming collection.
