You made a good pick. If I ever get around to assembling a force they would be on the top of my list! Hopefully they will help you to victory 😃

Steinmetz, Reiche, von Gilhausen! Is there any other formation more involved in the campaign?

For those not reading the alt text: I saw this painting yesterday — in LEGO form — at the Waterloo visitor centre. Even the Old Guard can be immortal… in ABS plastic.

General Lamarque is sent to suppress the revolt — a staunch Bonapartist, he earns the respect of many, even among his enemies. Decades later, his death would ignite the June Rebellion of 1832… immortalised in Les Misérables.

The rebellion becomes known as the “Guerre de Vendée et Chouannerie de 1815.” It’s the last royalist uprising of the Napoleonic era. Details here (in French):
