Prussian Light Horse Battery 1806

Regiment of the Day

Today we have a light horse battery for the Prussian army at Jena/Auerstadt, 1806.

Prussian 6lb battery. Figures by AB (18mm). Being a Horse Battery, this one includes a limber set - but I have used 4 horses instead of 6, to easily distinguish this on the field as a 'Light' battery.

I have also used the shell chest (foreground) on a 20mm round base to use as a 'saved fire' marker. In Republique, artillery can save fire for subsequent rounds, and fire at double effect later on.
