March Attack
I like my march-attack figures to be in step. This was a formal way of moving men. It was used for getting large numbers of men in set formations to a point where they came in contact with the enemy. The men would have marched to music or the beat of drums. NCOs would have ensured that most of the men remained in step as the cohesion of the battalion relied on this. It would have been practiced on parade grounds until the men could move in unison almost without thought. It struck me when I did the research for these figures that in many illustrations most of the battalion seems to be using both hands to hold the musket. In march-attack the musket was supposed to be held in the crook of the left arm while the right arm swung free. The two handed hold was definitely not regulation. I looked into this and made inquiries from other research colleagues. The answer seems to be as follows – The French musket weighed over four and a half kilos. The regulation way of holding the musket in the crook of the left arm was not a ‘natural’ way of holding the musket. After marching for a while over rough ground, while taking fire from the enemy, it was natural for the right hand to be used to steady the musket and to take some of its weight off the left arm. In action the officers accepted this as necessary.

Trail-arms Musketeers
This is the classic ‘at the double’ pose for the Prussian army of this period. The men were trained to advance this way until they reached the point where they were needed on the battlefield. They would then form up and advance in the usual ‘march-attack’ poses or advance with levelled muskets if in close proximity to the enemy. These figures never sell in large quantities but should from part of any Prussian collection. Note that some assembly is required with these figures as the musket needs to be glued to the figure.
