Victory or Death.

Voltiguers
____________________________________________

The Voltigeurs were French military skirmish units created in 1804 by Emperor Napoleon I. Voltigeurs were named after their originally conceived mode of operation: although they were foot soldiers, on the battlefield they were intended to jump onto the croup of cavalry horses to advance more quickly. This proved unworkable and they were trained to be elite skirmishers, but they retained their original name. In 1804, each French Line and Light infantry battalion was ordered to create one company of ninety of the best shots who would serve as elite skirmishers. This company would frequently be detached from the battalion to perform specialised light infantry tasks - operating in loose formation, forming the skirmish line and screening the battalion from the enemy. The voltigeurs were skilled at sharpshooting and received specific training in marksmanship, using cover and taking the initiative.

Light Infantry / Skirmishers

* Skirmishing is a very unique role compared to what most other groups play. Historically and ingame the role of Skirmishers were to act as sharpshooters and kill enemy officers and harass line battalions. Unlike Line Infantry Skirmishers are allowed to have 3-5 man spacing, crouch and may use terrain as cover. This makes skirmishers difficult targets. Coupled with the use of Rifles over the normal muskets skirmishers have a unique advantage over most other players. As compared to a majority of players as line infantry skirmishers have great freedom of movement during linebattles as well as are safer. With the spacing in line and the ability to crouch and use cover Skirmishers are very difficult targets for enemy Lines and Artillery. ____________________________________________
