Arguably the best shock cavalry of the period; the British heavy cavalry showed great bravery but poor control on the day of Waterloo. These heavy cavalry smashed the French columns to pieces but; due to their poor leadership; they were destroyed by the French in turn. There were two heavy cavalry brigades; the Household division with four regiments and the Union Brigade with three. To give close support the Royal Horse Artillery attached to them field fast-moving; deadly 6-pounder guns. Sound the charge!
This plastic set provides enough models to field a complete brigade of three British heavy cavalry regiments (two bases of Royal Scots Greys; three bases of Household Cavalry and six bases of Heavy Dragoons) and a 3-gun battery of Royal Horse Artillery 6-pdrs.
