LEUT-02 – Prussian Grenadier Advancing #2
The same supplied product code also appears as LEUT-02 – Prussian Grenadier Advancing #2, representing one of the disciplined infantrymen associated with Frederick the Great's army.
At Leuthen, Frederick faced an Austrian army considerably larger than his own. His response became a classic example of battlefield manoeuvre: using terrain and movement to concentrate his forces against a portion of the Austrian line.
The Prussian infantry's ability to march, redeploy and maintain cohesion was central to making such tactics possible.
This advancing Grenadier is therefore particularly appropriate to the subject. Rather than simply standing and firing, he can be incorporated into a formation visibly moving across the battlefield.
Combine him with other advancing Prussians in several ranks, with officers and standards maintaining the direction of the unit.
Available through The Military Workshop – a dynamic John Jenkins Designs Prussian Grenadier representing the disciplined infantry manoeuvre for which Frederick's army became famous.
Brand: John Jenkins
