Rocroi 1643

Webpage for the event in May 2013 here. Facebook page here.There seems to be interest in attending this from the UK - there was quite a contingent at Grolle earlier this year. Be good to see some ECW people doing continental events - maybe get them using musket rests? Rocroi wiki

Musket rests- vexed question imho. "Musket forks " were issued at the beginning of the ECW but they seem to have gone pretty quickly. They would be a pain in the hegde fighting and not really any use. Mine lastedone or two battles before I left it at home in my re-enactment days.
I'm sure continental troops di the sameafter about 1630
