Mamelouks!

[Le Manchou]

Hello Leon, Pendraken plans to do the Chasseurs a cheval de la garde for Wagram but not the Mamelouk squadron, would it be possible to include 3 mamelouks and 12 chasseurs a cheval de la garde in one pack as they were usually linked and a pack of 15 mamelouks would be way too much for most rules. Another demand is Napoleon and aides like the Mamelouk Roustan and Massena in his carriage.

I've popped these on the lists, but I'm not sure how viable they will be.

When you get to do the Ottoman Turk Napoleonic additions, the Egyptians in 1798 had 12,000 Mamelukes, so you would need plenty of them then  Although they should have spears, javelins, blunderbusses, mace, and pistols and 2 sabres.

Perhaps be better to do a full Mameluke pack for your rev wars range, some with swords only, then those wanting the French Guard unit of 150 men can buy a strip separately or borrow from an Egyptian pack.

Sorry to tell you that I don't need them anymore, I bought the mamelouks from the Old Glory range
