Riflemen March

nav_riflemen_march

The introduction of the rifled musket and the percussion cap requires a new tactical doctrine of skirmishing in dispersed open order, a fighting style for which the Pyrenean terrain has trained the Navarrese infantry for generations. The Royal Academy of Pamplona is developing the Marcha de Cazadores, a fast-pace marching cadence and dispersion drill that lets entire battalions advance under cover while maintaining unit cohesion. This drill makes Navarrese light infantry the model for every Iberian army adapting to the realities of rifled weapon warfare.
