Just fought the Battle of Winceby. Fantastic scenario. Plays really well. Especially as I won! Just :oops:

Could you do the battle of Dussindale? It's interesting because a loyalist force made up of 3/4th cavalry with some pikemen and harquebusiers engaged a much larger rebel army of billmen and bowmen. The rebels had more artillery too.

There's maps and explanations of the battle here.

I will certainly look into it, and see what I can come up with. I will give you some more information in a few days.

That is a great idea. I live in Norfolk so that's local to me! In fact on one of my driving lessons this morning we went past a very old oak tree that is at the edge of the road between Wymondham and Hethersett. It is know locally as Kett's Oak and is supposedly where Kett called his rebels together.
