Title: ECW using FK&P: Cookham Moor
Post by: Vis Bellica on October 07, 2020, 11:25:51 AM

After the encounter at Whyteladyes Lane, the Royalists retreated to the small hamlet of Cookham. The Parliamentarians, however, rather than withdrawing to regroup, have followed them.

Cookham, a pleasant place mostly home to farm labourers, is split by the Moor: an open piece of land crossed one way by a small stream, Strand Water, and the other way by Dean Lane, now more of a road.

Unwilling to surrender the Moor, “Little John” Boulters leads his men forwards to the eastern edge of the open ground only to see Sir Christopher and his men just arriving on the other side. The stage is set for another epic For King & Parliament clash!

Is that 15mm Robert? I do like the regimental basing, 28 figures on a base! I see the Vis Bellica influence never left you ....

Thanks for the battle report, I really enjoy them!
Are the hedges home made?

Thanks, glad you enjoy them.

The hedges are Battlefront "bocage": not bocage, but make good hedges!
