The releases this month for Flintloque and Slaughterloo from Alternative Armies introduce a whole new regiment into the Army of Albion. The 2nd Heavy Dragoons are the mounted counterpart to the existing pack of dismounted Dragoons, and make use of a classic (now re-mastered) code, as well as brand-new poses for a total of five riders and one deceased Orc.
Until 1st May 2020, our March to War event is running. This means 15% off your cart during check-out automatically, as well as 20 new releases and a free miniature too. A great offer, and you can learn all about it on our blog or go to our New Releases and from there.
The Dragoons of the Army of Albion are lightly armed Orcs who use their swords and carbines to scout and range ahead of the marching battalions. If they have to fight on foot or they lose their horses, they will dismount; otherwise, they ride into the fray.
If you play in Catalucia or Al-Garvey, then these Dragoons will give you added muscle against Elf Dragoons and other Ferach forces. A skirmish pack which has a full unit option with discount, as well as packs with single-pose purchase options for full customization of your section.
