1/45e Regiment de Ligne

Fusiliers and command group finished, which when added to the previously painted grenadiers and voltigeurs, completes my first French line infantry battalion.

This is the first battalion of the 45eme Regiment, with the second battalion to follow in due course.

1/45e Regiment de Ligne

The 45e Regiment were an ever present part of the Grande Armee, having served from Valmy in 1792 up to Waterloo in 1815, and fought in numerous battles all across Europe. They were ordered to Spain in 1808, with the 1st battalion participating in many battles against the British and Spanish, including Talevera, Vittoria and Toulouse. At the latter they held a redoubt against fierce opposition, and only had 100 combat capable men left when they retired from the field.

All models are by Xan. The flag is from Maverick-Models.com, which has a huge range of flags for Napoleonic and other eras. They will adjust flag sizes on request too, which is extremely handy.
