Scots Covenanter 1643-1647 Horse

Post by w_michael »

The Scots Covenanter 1643-1647 army list contains Scots Horse, unarmoured with light lancers (impact) and swordsmen (melee), as the only type available. According to Scots Armies of the English Civil Wars by Stuart Reid, a Scots cavalry regiment of this time "was organised in two squadrons, one of which was armed with pistols and the other with lances". The De Bellis Renationis (DBR) miniatures rules allows a mix of the two cavalry types in their army list. Shouldn't some of the cavalry be like the horse in the Scots Covenanter 1639-1642 army list: armoured horse with pistols (shooting) and pistols (melee)?

Probably, yes.

We will look at doing that for the next update.

We will also be adding Scots Royalist and Cornish Royalist lists in the next update.
