Light Cavalry in armour, wearing coats and carrying lances. These figures are based on European mounted troops who typically fought as supporting ranks to Gendarmes and knightly classes. They were slightly less armoured than the full harness of knights. They could be termed archers or coustillers, in French armies and similar mounted cavalry appear in most European armies. They were later superseded by the Chevau-légers in French armies in the Italian Wars around the 1530s. Pack of 3 mounted figures, with 4 separate heads. Figures need assembly and some drilling required to fix heads and lances.
