Form square! The French cavalry are just waiting to catch a British regiment in line formation, but as long as they're in a square and hold their ground the cavalry have little chance of breaking them, and even attempting to will cause massive casualties.
French Cuirassiers (Above) -
Each horseman is made using white legs, a black torso and arms, and a silver/chrome breast plate and helmet from the Lego Knights range.
As well as heavy cavalry sabres, they also carry a carbine attached to the saddle (a Lego western rifle).
The colonel carries a small French standard strapped to his saddle, and has a blue plume in his helmet.
Mounted Imperial Guard (Above) -
These men have custom printed torsos, these are simply a scan of the standard soldier torsos but with the tunic and crossbelts recoloured green and red respectively.
Their leader is Colonel Phillipe Leroux a ruthless man hunting Wellington's spies. This man is Sharpe's nemesis in "Sharpe's Sword".
