This is a most impressive looking unit, and the painting is exceptionally good.
I don't think I have ever seen a body of Guard Engineers arrayed like this, with a mounted officer gallantly leading the assault. Were these soldiers ever used as assault troops eg: at the head of a column perhaps, in the role of grenadiers? Or were they more valuable for their skills as engineers?
