This afternoon we deployed two 15mm armies for a fictional battle in Ireland. Ormonde, King Charles' commander in Ireland faced a large Irish rebel army in what will be a very bloody encounter. The Irish comprised, like the English, foot armed with pike and musket but are reinforced by redshanks armed with sword, axe and shield. Yet the Irish are outnumbered by English horse and handicapped by command difficulties. The game went down to the wire with the "winner" being only determined at the very last. A brief report of this excellent battle can be found here: link |

Great write up. It was a fascinating and convoluted olde conflict in Ireland in the mid-17th century
