Title: Dismounted French dragoons
Post by: grenadier1812 on 19 June 2012, 09:52:33 AM
Hi - any chance of creating some unmounted French dragoons, please? They are a useful figures to have and look fantastic!

Did you want dragoons dismounted and skirmishing (as at Corunna) or actual foot dragoons in gaiters as in 1805 when the French ran out of horses?

I'll pop them on the lists for when we get through the bulk of the ranges.

Good question! Both would be good, but I would go first for the gaitered, dismounted dragoons, please!

I would suggest that although something I'd want as well that this should come after mounted Polish lancers and mounted Austrian Uhlans. These 2 troop types are far more likely to be seen on a battlefield than Dragoons offen their horsies.

Well Ian it is the 1809 range, so probably for the moment.

Fair point about familiar types - but the dismounted dragoons are very useful in a number of scenarios. Sorry for delay in replying, by the way.
