Waterloo: Blücher’s Prussian Army Starter Set: $152
If you love historical games, then these will be perfect for your collection, well, if you want anything to do with this particular time period.
Let’s hear what they have to say about the set:
Unfortunately, the Prussian army was hastily assembled and pressed into the field ill-equipped and poorly trained. Over a third of the force was Landwehr (militia), some of which marched barefoot to war. At the Battle of Ligny the Prussian army faced Napoleon directly and was roundly beaten, Blücher himself being trapped injured under his dead horse for hours. The Battle of Waterloo provided a chance at redemption.
