La Haye Sainte - Waterloo 1815 - Battle Set

From June 16 to 18, French and Allied troops clashed on Belgian battlefields. The Battles of Ligny and Quatre Bras were just the proem of the most famous and well-known battle in military history.
A date and a place: June 18, 1815, Waterloo.
Wellington viewed La Haie Sainte's farm as a strategic point in his defensive line.
In the afternoon, Napoleon ordered Marshal Ney to launch the attack on the farm in order to obtain a significant outpost.
The farm was heavily defended by Allied troops, who had fortified the buildings since morning.
The clash was fierce and the French troops, supported by artillery, were only able to capture La Haie Sainte late in the afternoon.
Thanks to the strategic value of the farm, the French Imperial Guard is able to begin the attack, but it is too late. Prussian troops led by Blücher, sought in vain by Marshal Grouchy, appear on the battlefield to support the British army
