American War of Independence – British Starter Army (1776)
In 1776, the New York campaign became a defining moment in the American War of Independence. Following earlier engagements, General William Howe took command of British forces and launched a large-scale, coordinated offensive against George Washington’s army. Reinforced by troops from Europe, including the well-known Hessian contingents, the British executed a carefully planned campaign culminating in victory at the Battle of Long Island. This historical setting provides the foundation for this comprehensive Black Powder starter army.
This boxed set enables players to build a well-rounded British force suited for recreating major engagements of the period. British line infantry form the core of the army, supported by specialised units such as Hessian mercenaries and Woodland Indian warriors. The force is further reinforced with an artillery piece and crew, along with a mounted commander to lead your troops effectively on the battlefield.
Designed as a complete starting point or expansion for an existing collection, this set offers a wide range of units and gameplay options. The plastic miniatures allow for easy customisation, while the full-colour flag sheets enhance both historical accuracy and visual appeal. Ideal for recreating the battles of 1776 and building immersive narrative scenarios.
