This was no different for the Union and Confederate forces in the American Civil War, and these miniatures, presenting arms on the firing line, lend themselves equally to being painted as either a Union or a Confederate regiment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnion soldiers wore dark blue tunics, sky-blue trousers, and were armed with percussion rifles. They learned to manoeuvre and march long distances to carry the war into the South. Early regiments were of variable quality, as few had drilled before, let alone seen any significant active service. By the end of the war, they were a tough and efficient force, more than a match for their adversary ‘Johnny Reb’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConfederate regiments were tough, many in their ranks used to hardship and familiar with firearms. This was just as well, as they were often poorly equipped, supplied and armed compared to their Northern Union adversaries – much of their equipment was sourced from captured Federal stores or privately acquired. The better-equipped troops favoured the Enfield rifled musket when available, but many rifle types were in use during the war, even old flintlocks in reserve units. Southern troops were noted for their fast and fearsome charges, many letting out the eerie ‘Rebel Yell’ to unnerve their ‘bluebelly’ opponents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBox contains 24 Warlord resin figures (including command group), plastic bases, MDF snake fence scenery, cap badge decals, and full-colour flag sheets for Union and Confederate troops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Warlord Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48019229475059,"sku":"128950","price":28.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0706\/8699\/8771\/files\/128950-bp-epic-battles-acw-infantry-regiment-firing-line-302414002-1.webp?v=1781212596","url":"https:\/\/radaddel.de\/en\/products\/bp-epic-battles-acw-infantry-regiment-firing-line","provider":"Radaddel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
