Dragoons fall between the categories of horse and foot troops. Most usefully employed in scouting, raiding and skirmishing. At the beginning of the war complete regiments of dragoons where formed, but over time this practice stopped, being replaced by single troops attached to regiments of horse or by detachments of mounted musketeers used for specific operations.
Our Dragoon is armed with short barrel firelock musket, the powder and shot he
uses are carried in a leather bag rather than in bandoliers used by musketeers.
