The BG of cuirassiers could be a life-guard for your commander-in-chief.  I would say only two bases though, rather than the full four – I don’t think there was a shortage of armour so much as a shortage of horses capable of carrying the bloke wearing it!!!

I would have thought lots of Highlanders – in “Warrior” format – would be ideal for you.  The big 8-base units are usually either musket* or bow* which means you fire the front rank and half the back rank at close range, followed by an “in wi’ tha’ boot, an’ thin wi’ tha’ heed” four-inch charge move.
