Description
The 17th Century saw the assembling of large regular armies equipped andsupplied by the state. Many units, though not all, were uniformly attired forthe first time, and formed into companies and regiments then finally brigadedtogether into tercios or battalias.
Formations on the field could vary enormously as the situation dictated. Onpaper, a regiment may have ten companies of 100 men each but in reality, due tosickness, casualties and lack of money, regiments could be as small. The normwas to have two equal ‘wings’ of musketeers on the flanks and a centralblock of pikemen armed with sharp 16 foot ash pikes. While the slow-firingmusketeers whittled down the enemy, the pikes’ primary role was to providethem with protection from cavalry.
This box contains all you need to field a pike and musket-armed regiment ofthe period, be it for the Thirty Years War that ravaged Europe or the EnglishCivil Wars where Royalist battled Parliament for control of the country.
This product is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue and paints notincluded.
