 New range I believe. Here

Cheriton 1644

 


Today's anniversary. From the wiki

The Battle of Cheriton of 29 March 1644 was an important Parliamentarian victory during the First English Civil War. Sir William Waller's "Army of the Southern Association" defeated a Royalist force jointly commanded by the Earl of Forth and Sir Ralph Hopton. Defeat ended Royalist hopes of retaking South East England and forced them onto the defensive for the rest of 1644.

Although less well known than the Battle of Marston Moor, in his "History of the Rebellion" senior Royalist advisor Clarendon considered Cheriton an equally disastrous defeat.[2]

Khurasan 15mm late 17th century

 If you wanted to do Fehrbellin or any campaign of that era then I think the best choice is this range


Size matters
