King & Country · Napoleonic · NA015
NA015 lowers the weapon toward the space in front of him. The long bayonet and step forward make him a natural bridge between French figures marching into position and those already firing.

The weapon sets the distance
The sculpt extends considerably farther forward than its feet. That makes the base dimensions only part of the space it needs. Leave the bayonet clear of a neighboring figure or wall, and look along the direction of the weapon when laying out the scene. A small change of angle can make the advance feel purposeful rather than crowded.
Using the figure to explain a transition
An advancing soldier can connect a marching group to the edge of an engagement. Put NA014 farther back, then place NA015 ahead with room to move. That arrangement makes the change in weapon position legible. It is a display interpretation, not a claim that the manufacturer reproduced a particular drill sequence in consecutive code numbers.
What a listing should show
Ask for a side view that includes the entire bayonet and an unobstructed view of the plume. Examine the white belts for chips against the darker coat and check that the base sits flat. Early NA titles sometimes omit leading zeroes; searching both NA015 and NA15 can find the same release, but the pose must still match.
