The attacking columns also had to overcome the walls, barricades and other obstacles protecting the compound before they could force their way inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAssault pioneers were among the men tasked with helping the advancing troops breach these defences. Equipped for the difficult and extremely dangerous work of clearing obstacles and opening a path for those following behind, they would have been particularly exposed as the Mexican columns approached the Alamo under fire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKing \u0026amp; Country’s RTA146 “A Pair of Santa Anna’s Assault Pioneers” portrays two of these specialist soldiers advancing together, adding a different dimension to an Alamo display. Rather than another conventional infantry set, these figures help tell the story of how the Mexican Army attempted to overcome the formidable defences of the mission during the climactic assault.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable from The Military Workshop, RTA146 is an excellent addition for collectors building a larger Battle of the Alamo scene, particularly alongside advancing Mexican infantry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"King and Country","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52625892278554,"sku":"RTA146","price":155.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/0154\/0890\/files\/RTA146_5e054799-7cf0-49db-8ddb-955b9112de12.jpg?v=1785537931","url":"https:\/\/themilitaryworkshop.com\/products\/rta146","provider":"The Military Workshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
