French Infantry – Black Powder (War of the Spanish Succession)
In Black Powder, an army is more than just a fighting force—it is also a symbol of its monarch’s prestige and authority. The armies of Louis XIV reflect this ambition, representing one of the dominant military powers of early 18th-century Europe. Tasked with advancing French claims to the Spanish throne, these forces confront shifting coalitions of European states in a conflict defined by discipline, coordination and battlefield dominance in service of the Sun King’s vision.
This boxed set allows players to build a full 24-figure unit representing a typical battalion aligned with the French crown and its allies. Each set is designed for maximum flexibility, featuring 20 rank-and-file infantry alongside command elements including two standard bearers, a drummer and an officer. Extensive head and equipment options allow for national differentiation and unit customisation, enabling players to create distinctive regiments that reflect both historical variety and personal army design.
The kit also includes options for building dedicated grenadier detachments to replace line infantry within the unit. Variations in headgear and equipment represent the diversity found across different regiments and allied contingents, adding visual depth and historical flavour to your Black Powder forces on the tabletop.
