RR-38N – The Eighteenth Century Collection – The Raid on St. Francis, 1759 – Roger's Rangers (4 pcs) Few military units of the eighteenth century earned a reputation equal to that of Roger's Rangers. Trained to fight where conventional armies struggled to survive, these elite woodsmen mastered reconnaissance, ambush tactics and long-range patrols across the vast forests of North America. Their daring raid on the Abenaki settlement of St. Francis in 1759 demonstrated not only extraordinary courage but also the remarkable endurance required to operate hundreds of miles behind enemy lines without reliable supplies. The Rangers became famous for Major Robert Rogers' "Rules of Ranging," a series of practical battlefield principles covering everything from movement and concealment to surprise attacks and survival in hostile territory. Many of these principles remain relevant to modern military forces, highlighting the lasting influence of Rogers' methods on special operations and reconnaissance units around the world. This outstanding four-figure set provides collectors with a realistic section of these legendary Rangers, each figure displaying a unique pose that conveys movement, vigilance and readiness for action. Beautifully sculpted frontier clothing, authentic weapons and finely painted equipment combine to create an exceptionally realistic display. The subtle variations between the figures ensure that the group looks natural whether operating as a patrol or preparing for an ambush. The Military Workshop is proud to present this larger Ranger set to collectors who appreciate military history beyond conventional battlefield formations. It is an impressive tribute to one of the most influential light infantry units ever raised in North America.
