Of possible interest? "During the course of the 80 Years' War one of its main leaders – Maurice of Orange-Nassau – created an army and a tactical system that became a model throughout Europe. This study focuses on the Dutch infantry, examining how Maurice of Orange-Nassau mobilized patriots and volunteers from across Europe, introduced innovative new training methods and standardised the organisation and payment system of the army to make it more than a match for the occupying Spanish" Main page ospreypublishing.com Amicalement Armand

The pictures on the cover look like English troops from Matchlock Musketeers They probably are, it's usual for Osprey's first showing of a forthcoming title to use artwork from old books, presumably because the new stuff isn't ready yet. This one's March 2017, according to Amazon.
