Union Army Miniatures
Union - Mounted Colonel Forage (28mm, Supports Removed)
Mounted officers played a vital role in battlefield command during the Civil War, relaying orders, directing troop movements, and maintaining discipline on the field. Union Colonels on horseback often had to navigate chaotic battlefields, issuing commands while avoiding enemy fire. At Gettysburg (1863), mounted officers played a key role in coordinating defensive lines against Pickett’s Charge, while during the Overland Campaign (1864), they oversaw relentless offensives in the brutal clashes of the Wilderness and Cold Harbor. This Union Colonel figure is ideal for representing leadership in these engagements, adding realism and historical accuracy to your wargaming battles.

Confederate Army Miniatures
Confederate - Assorted Mounted Colonels (28mm, Supports Removed)
Southern officers, from cavalry commanders like J.E.B. Stuart to field leaders such as A.P. Hill, often led from horseback to oversee battle movements. Mounted command was crucial in coordinating large-scale manoeuvres, leading charges, and directing infantry support. At Chancellorsville (1863), Confederate officers on horseback played a pivotal role in Stonewall Jackson’s legendary flanking march, which shattered Union lines. At Second Manassas (1862), mounted commanders helped direct relentless assaults that forced Union forces into retreat. These figures are ideal for representing Confederate leadership in dynamic battlefield situations where strategic mobility was key.
