Description: The Battle of Rossbach Action Figure (40mm scale) vulcanised black rubber mould.The battle of Rossbach was fought on November 5th 1757 between the Prussian army of Frederick the Great and the combined armies of France and the German Empire under Soubize.When the allied commanders noticed the Prussians moving back from their previous positions to behind a hill they mistakenly believed thy were retreating even before the battle begun and recklessly advanced to overtake and destroy them. The Prussians realising the allies error, prepared their cavalry and artillery just out of sight of the allies over the hill crest. As the Franco-German army surged up the hill, they were suddenly met by the Prussian cavalry at full gallop and the roar of artillery fire, which threw them into disarray. Despite valiant attempts by the French cavalry to halt the now advancing Prussian infantry and rank their own troops, the battle was lost and Prussia won the day.PRODUCT CODE: 70NAME OF MOULDS: 'Prussia: Grenadier' (advancing).SCALE: 40mmCONTENTS OF PACKAGE: 1 mold + casting instructions. GIFT IDEA: Great fun gift. Can be reused hundreds of times. Large selection of moulds available. CASTING GUIDE: Apply release powder to both mould halves evenly. Gently clap the moulds together to remove excess powder. Add the two support boards to the sides of the moulds and hold firmly together with the metal clamps. Melt metal in the casting ladle. Use a worn match to check that the metal is at the correct temperature. If the match smokes lightly when placed in the metal it means that it is ready to pour. Pour carefully into the mould holes and tap lightly to settle metal. When cool (5 minutes), open the mould and bend the mould away from the figure to remove it. Clip away any excess metal off the figure and base, file to keep base flat. Polish with a wire brush. (wire snips, file and brush not included) Your figure is ready to paint. We advise undercoating it first and varnishing it when finished painting to protect it. SHIPPING INFORMATION: We ship any orders received from Monday to Friday, 9 to 5 p.m (UTC).
