Historical Overview

The Russian line infantry was the main ground force of the Russian Empire during the Napoleonic Wars. In the modeled period of 1812-1814, these soldiers played a key role in the famous campaign against Napoleon during the invasion of Russia, as well as in later offensives that led to the capture of Paris. Their distinctive uniforms and weaponry allow for a realistic recreation of both famous battles, such as Borodino, and other skirmishes of this turbulent period.
