Black Powder is a game for the militarily inclined gentlemen with straight backs; bristling beards and rheumy eyes that have seen a thing or two. If tales of battle and glory in days-gone-by stir nothing in your breast; if the roar of cannon does not quicken the pulse and set fire in the belly; then this is not the rule set for you. Set during the horse & musket period of 1700-1900; Black Powder is very much a game for gentlemen gamers. Gamers who cherish the finer things in life such as wonderfully painted armies; fighting over luxurious terrain; and doing so in the company of friends. No need for the use of protractors to wheel a unit and arguments over whether a charge is 2mm out of range or not are things you’ll no longer have to worry about. In essence it’s a very relaxing game that can produce stunning conflicts – conflicts that can see one side appear doomed only for them to pull victory from the icy grasp of Mistress Defeat.Packed with stoic; green-coated Russians; this gives you the core of a Russian army during the Napoleonic wars; saving you cash in the process!96 plastic Russian Line Infantry in 1812-1815 shakos; 32 plastic and metal Pavlovsk Grenadiers and command group; officer on horse.Russian infantry with mounted officer.
