Warlord Black Powder Waterloo French Army Starter Set 311512001, Unpainted

The French Army starter set from Bonaparte provides a strong foundation for a French army fighting in the Hundred Days campaign. It includes 10 units of line/light infantry, 3 units of skirmishing voltigeurs, units of heavy cavalry (Cuirassiers, Dragoons, and Carabiniers) and light cavalry (Hussars, Chasseurs a Cheval, and Lancers), as well as 16 pieces of artillery and brigade commanders. Additionally, it comes with an MDF building of the Dacoster House and a custom A5 softback rulebook with Napoleonic-specific content.

On Sunday, June 18, 1815, two great generals, Napoleon and Wellington, faced off on a rain-soaked battlefield in Belgium in the decisive Battle of Waterloo. This battle marked the end of two decades of warfare in Europe and the fall of Napoleon's rule. Black Powder Epic Battles, based on the acclaimed Black Powder rules system, allows players to recreate the pivotal conflicts of the Waterloo Campaign on a grand scale, including period-specific tactics, conditions, and historical figures from the Napoleonic Wars.

The French Army starter set for Black Powder Epic Battles features a substantial number of infantry units, voltigeurs, heavy and light cavalry, artillery, and brigade commanders, as well as the exclusive Dacoster House MDF scenery. The game is designed for playing on expansive tabletops, such as a pool table, and can accommodate multiplayer games with any number of players, making it ideal for club games. Infantry units can move 12 inches, while cavalry units can move 18 inches, so players will need a measuring tape for gameplay.

Players can enjoy the process of building and painting their models, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the game itself. Watching the meticulously crafted models come to life on the battlefield enhances the overall gaming experience.
