Why are no veteran royalists ?

Post by switze01 »

Hi

Seems a bit unfair that the royalist foot at naseby are not rated as vets
They were pushing the new model back up the hill until cromwells ironsides
hit them up the rear
Were all the new model poor then ?
I re enact parliament so have no royalist bias at all - it just seems a bit unrealistic.

May I draw your attention to the "Veteran foot regiments or commanded out musketeers" in the list from 1644 onwards ...

superior = vets

Expensive but especially when it comes to the cav it makes a difference between them staying around forever or running away quickly. So far we have only been doing 600 point games so I can't get too much superior foot on the table since the superior cav is so expensive but necessary.
