Spotlight falls upon Manchester's Horse. History and pictures link Coincidentally this is my 300th blog post. Who'd have thought I could prattle on this much?

Great work as ever KYPD, how are your armies looking now, do you have a particular size of force in mind? |

Thank you both. Timbo – Parliamentarians and Royalists practically finished: each has 17 RoF, 3 combined shot, 3 regts of dragoons, 20 RoH, about a dozen artillery pieces each with its own limber, about a dozen pieces of baggage. Then there's the clubmen – about 120+ of them Scots Covenanters and Montrose's army – I forget. Still quite a few Highlanders and horse to paint. |

Another beautifully turned-out regiment of Malcontents, this Colonel one of the leaders. Always great work! |

is a big fan of the Age of Sail, and these ships really speak to him - he loves transitional eras, and the Anglo-Dutch Wars was one of those.
