🔥 French Lancer – Camel Cavalryman of Napoleon's Army! 🔥
Introducing the figurine of a French lancer from the unique Camel Cavalry Regiment created by Napoleon for the Egyptian campaign. These soldiers were a symbol of courage and adaptability—trained to fight in the harsh desert conditions where traditional cavalry could not operate. Camel riders were used for reconnaissance, rapid movements, and surprise attacks on enemy lines.
Distinctive Appearance:
The lancer's uniform combined elements of French cavalry with modifications for desert warfare: a light white coat, red uniform and protective gear against the sun. The most striking feature was the long lance—the primary weapon for attacks from the camel's back. Soldiers were also equipped with a saber and pistols for close combat. The camel saddle was specially designed for stability and comfort during long marches.
Role and Significance:
The Camel Cavalry Regiment was deployed during the Egyptian campaign (1798–1801), excelling in patrols and swift strikes. These men were true pioneers—blending European military tactics with the realities of the Orient.
This figurine captures the lancer in full gear, ready for action atop his camel. Relive the bravery and ingenuity of a unit that became a legend of the Napoleonic Wars.
