Description

Black Powder Epic Battles - Zouave Regiments
Summary: Set of unpainted miniatures for Black Powder Epic Battles.
With the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860, the tension between the Northern and Southern States boiled over into outright hostility. Birthed in the South, the Confederacy fought to maintain its independency whilst Northern troops headed south in a bid to preserve the union. Four years of hellish fighting ensued, consuming the nation. It was a war the likes of which the Americas had not seen before, and would never again.
It is one of the most studied military conflicts in history, with over 237 named battles in addition to innumerable minor actions and skirmishes. Tactically, battles were still largely linear - regiments frequently fired all their ammunition only to be relieved by a second wave of troops passing through the line. However, the technology of war had become all the more destructive, and casualty rates were atrocious, leading to some historians citing the warfare of the American Civil War to be a precursor to that of the 1st World War over 50 years later.
The Epic Battles system allows for gamers to refight these battles on a huge scale.  The game is based on the familiar award-winning Black Powder rules system, with a few period-flavour tweaks to cement the battles in the ideologies of American Civil War doctrines.
The Zouave Regiments (or Zouave Inspired Regiments) were used by both the Union and Confederate forces during the American Civil War.
The formations from New York and Pennsylvania became arguably the most popular and colourful additions to the Civil War, and present Epic Battles ACW players with fantastically interesting additions to their tabletop forces.
These highly detailed and easy to assemble miniatures in Epic Battle Scale will allow you, the player, to add regimental diversity to your order of battle.
This set provides enough models to field three complete Zouave infantry regiments of 100 men each.
