American Civil War: Zouaves Regiment

March into battle with style with these dashing American Civil War Zouaves!

At the time of the American Civil War, all things French were fashionable in military circles – in particular the dashing uniforms of their Zouave colonial light infantry! Clad in extravagant, flowing pantaloons, ornately decorated jackets, and a variety of jaunty headgear, over 70 regiments would be raised by the Union, with a smaller number in Confederate service. Often beginning as light skirmishing infantry, some would convert to regular line troops (frequently due to a lack of suitably fancy replacement uniforms), while others would remain as Zouaves throughout the war. Zouave regiments often saw themselves as something of an elite fighting force, and many units earned deserved reputations as fierce and determined fighters.

No Black Powder American Civil War collection is complete without a unit or two of Zouaves, and these gorgeously detailed Warlord Resin figures are perfect for both Union and Confederate forces, adding a splash of colour and vibrancy to your battleline!

Box contains 24 Warlord resin figures (including command group), plastic bases, MDF Snake Fence scenery, cap badge decal sheet and full-colour flag sheets for both Union and Confederate troops.
