Highland charge

David Morier's painting An Incident in the Rebellion of 1745 depicts the Highland charge in 1746. It shows the Highlanders still wearing the plaids they normally set aside before battle. They would fire a volley, then run full tilt at the enemy, brandishing their weapons and wearing only their shirts.

The Highland charge was a battlefield shock tactic used by the clans of the Scottish Highlands which incorporated the use of firearms.
