MF-03B – Montreal Brigade, 2 Militia Skirmishing (2 pcs) | John Jenkins Designs
The Montreal militia formed part of the wider mobilisation of New France during the conflict Britain and France fought for control of North America.
MF-03B – Montreal Brigade depicts two militiamen operating as skirmishers rather than standing in a conventional European line.
This style of fighting suited the heavily wooded landscape encountered throughout much of the region. Militia could move through cover, screen larger formations and support regular troops and allied Indigenous warriors.
The two-figure set is particularly effective when placed among trees or uneven terrain, with the figures separated slightly to reinforce the impression of loose-order fighting.
Combine them with the Quebec and Trois-Rivières militia to represent the different Canadian contingents contributing to the defence of New France.
Available through The Military Workshop – a useful John Jenkins Designs pair bringing the Montreal militia into a French and Indian War collection.
