"The Hussite wars became as a consequence of the execution of John Hus in 1415 in Rome, following his conviction as a heretic. The Catholic priest in Prague, rector of the university in the city, John Huss was open to reforming ideas of English Wyclif. He objects to the fact that the Church may have the power of life and death, the indulgences to pay all the wars of the Vatican, he requested that the Czech Church may use the language of the country and communion under both species . He leads to the Imperial Rome for a debate when he was arrested and executed. This triggers an immediate and lasting revolt of Bohemia and Moravia, which will last 25 years and that will stand up to cross troops will try to bring the country back to the authority of the Holy Germanic Empire and Rome"

Armand,
very interesting.
I think a better translation than "cross troops" would be "crusaders", or perhaps "crusader troops" as a more literal translation for troupes croisées. Druzhina

It's not "communion under both species". Firstly, that's giberish, though I know the history well enough to work out what's being got at; and secondly, the demand for communion wine for the common worshipper was a later issue, not part of Hus' agenda. And Hus was "a" Catholic priest of Prague, not "the" Catholic priest of Prague. Even today, when almost every Czech is refreshingly atheistic, there is more than one priest in the golden city. And English contains a past tense. Not having a go at you, Armand, just sick of internet pseudo-history and its endless perversion of English! |

This is one of the finest medieval wargame displays I have ever seen! |

I made what I can with the translation.
No time to think well between french and english.
The important matter was the diorama. Amicalement

Hussite wagons are early armoured cars. I just love them. |
