2de Kurassier regiment

The cavalry has arrived, ... I've been telling everyone, 'Hold on. Hold on. Help is coming.'

Introduction

the 2nd Regiment of Cuirassiers is a Cavalry regiment based for Dutch and Belgian people.
We expect royal,active and displined members in the 2deK who are not childish but mature.
We will play in game as the French Cuirassiers. The 2deK will use Cavalry Formation's like the Wedge and Split Formation.
As heavy cavalry we will crush enemy line infantry ,skirmishers and artillery regiment's in the battlefield. Cuirassiers are armed with a heavy sword and good armor. the 2deK will not always play as heavy cavalry if our members feel to play as hussars we can do that if we want.

Kind Regards, Lionheart

Are you going for the 2de Kurassiers? Or are you going for the more historic 2de Karabiniers? Made up of Belgians which fought at Waterloo and served with distinction? I've no knowledge of Dutch/Belgian 2de Kurassiers unless they're from the Kingdom of Holland or earlier.

Either way, good luck!

[Connzcdf]

Good luck Lionheart!

It is true that the 2de Kurassiers did not exist during the 100 day campaign, however it did exist from 1805 to 1810. It was then incorporated into the French army as the 14e Régiment de Cuirassiers.

[KillerMongoose]

During 1805-1810 they would have fought for the Kingdom of Holland (which fought for France) during the 100 days campaign they would have fought in the United Kingdom of the Netherlands but the only Dutch/Belgian heavy cavalry units were the 1ste (NL) Karabiniers, 2de (BE) Karabiniers, and 3de (NL) Karabiniers. These units made repeated and effective charges against the French heavy cavalry during the battle and shattered the French cavalry charge on its left wing. They were arrayed with the 1ste on the left, the 2de in the center, and the 3de on the right and their uniforms were very similar but the 1ste and 3de wore bicornes and the 2de wore silvery helmets with tall black crests much like the French carabinier helmets. Facings were as follows 1ste (Purple) 2de (Red) 3de (Yellow) the 2de was led personally by the Prince of Orange to route and pursue the French cavalry off the field with the cry of "Come my comrades, let us put our sabers to these Frenchmen! The victory is ours!" Overall the Dutch/Belgian carabiniers performed very effectively and served with great distinction, showing their British comrades that they need not doubt their skill nor their courage. And any question of their loyalty died on that field.

The karabineers did a pretty good job in their counter attacks I would say, however it was the Brittish Union Brigade which saved Wellington. I think it is fair to say they were the true heroes of the day.
