The cuirassiers are a peach. Big lads, big horses. Sit them next to light cavalry and you can see that there's a difference. This allows some flexibility in poses, adding a certain something to your regiments. I only have their line troops as yet - no Garde, but I like what I see.
Infantry are available in habit longue or our spencer.
Unfortunately the shako plates in 1812 uniform aren't the same as ours, being the diamond shape, but for a circa 1809 unit the habit longue types are ideal. Another takes careful aim to get rid of one of those surprises and others get loaded up ready to get stuck in. So far I have only seen their line lancers and hussars. I really like the hussars, not that keen on the lancers. They are smaller than the heavy cuirassiers, which is a difference from other manufacturers.
