Black Powder: Napoleonic Wars (1789-1815) – French Hussars (1808-1815)

Black Powder: Napoleonic Wars (1789-1815) – French Hussars (1808-1815) brings the most flamboyant and daring cavalry of Napoleons army to your tabletop. Known for their striking uniforms inspired by Hungarian and Turkish cavalry, the fourteen regiments of French Hussars were among the most visually impressive troops of the Napoleonic Wars.

Mounted on small but resilient horses, these light cavalrymen specialized in reconnaissance, raiding, and fast-moving attacks. Their battlefield presence was defined by their aggressive style, using their curved sabres with great effect in skirmishes and charges. Many also carried pistols or carbines for added versatility. The first company of each regiment was an elite formation, marked by their bearskin colpacks, further distinguishing them from the already eye-catching Hussar regiments.

This set includes 12 plastic Hussars with multiple headgear and uniform options, plus an additional metal officer, bugler, and an optional eagle bearer arm. Whether scouting ahead of the army or launching devastating flank attacks, these cavalrymen add speed and style to any Napoleonic force.
