History:
Austrian Grenadiers were the elite of the Habsburg infantry during the Napoleonic era. Formed from the best soldiers of each line regiment, grenadier battalions were held in reserve for critical assaults or to anchor defensive positions. Known for their discipline and courage, they played key roles in major battles such as Austerlitz, Wagram, and Leipzig. Clad in tall bearskin caps and distinctive white uniforms, they were a symbol of Austrian military tradition and pride. This Victrix set allows you to recreate these elite troops with the variety and detail needed for both wargaming and display.
