Powerful in melee, excellent when charging, and incomparable marksmen, these grenadiers are the truly frightening.
These men are the best of the best: powerful, skilful and deadly. They have proven themselves time and time again in battle and this shows no signs of changing. They excel in melee and the sheer size of the men makes their charge a terrifying sight for even the most experienced soldiers. Talented with a bayonet as well as a musket, they are vulnerable to artillery fire. They must also be wary of heavy cavalry who could take them in a flank.
Historically, Pavlovsk Grenadiers were instantly recognisable on the battlefield as they retained a more traditional uniform while other units modernised their dress. This was an honour, given to them by Tsar Alexander after their gallant efforts at the Battle of Friedland. They retained the mitre cap that all other infantry units had relinquished, setting them apart and making them one of the most distinctive units of the Napoleonic era. This recognition was well deserved, as their bravery became the stuff of legend. In 1813 they were honoured again when they became part of the Imperial Guard.
