Usher's Dragoons - ECW

Posted by Ochoin on 13 Apr 2023, 22:12

After my recent ECW game, where the Royalists failed so spectacularly against the doughty Covenanters, I decided Charles' men needed a dragoon unit. These Tumbling Dice figures have sat, half completed for many months. It didn't take too long to finish them off.

Let's hope they make a difference.

I’m certain they will turn the tide! I like the mix of mounted and dismounted figures on the same stand.

Thanks, Bill.

With, for example, mounted infantry in the Zulu Wars, I have the mounted & the dismounted versions of the same unit. But ECW dragoons, I believe, almost never charged on horseback so I thought the mix was good enough to remind me that they move as cavalry & fire as infantry.
