Napoleonic French Chasseurs a Cheval

 

Following on from the initial 2 light units (see 24 February 2024 post), I thought I had better add another unit of chasseurs - the workhorse of the French light cavalry arm. Once again these are from the excellent Perry plastics box, which allows enough variety for a real campaign look. These chaps are from the 10th Regiment, which with the 9th Hussars and 4th Chasseurs, represents a pretty strong light cavalry division of around 1,800 men.

I still have enough figures in the pile for another 4 units, one of which will probably be hussars and another a regiment of Neapolitan chasseurs a cheval, so still a long way to go.
