Are the covenanters completely out of it now after their big defeat? And you just painted them too! Somewhere in an old arquebusier I have seen a kings war scenario for the second civil war, so chance of a second round. |

Are the covenanters completely out of it now after their big defeat? And you just painted them too Yes, unfortunately. If they suffer a major defeat the Scottish government pulls the plug! They will maintain garrisons in York, Newcastle & Carlisle if they have captured any of those places before that moment… However, when the campaign ends, I imagine I will be using them for a series of historical battle refights. Hopefully Baccus will get round to releasing the Highlanders before I finish! Truthfully, things seem a bit grim for the Parliamentary cause, I am not sure how long they can hold on… |

Thanks torokchar. In due course, I am aiming to be able to achieve something similar for all of my built-up areas. |
