Weren't the Armstrongs Scottish?

Technically they were though their clan spread across both borders. They did support Scotland (officially) until the 1540s where they were n`t trusted by the Scots king and it is thought that this is one reason why they didnt fight as Solway Moss.

An interesting note is the name Armstrong comes fomr the Anglo Dane "Siward Digry" last of the Earls of Northumberland... :mrgreen:

Tough choice.  I voted for the trench raiders, but my conscience would be easier if their gas masks had a goggle treatment of some kind.

Period prevails over national solidarity this time. I like the Reivers very much, amazing brushwork on the musician!

I agree, impossible choice of the week. I had to go to the tie breaker, period interest. WW1 wins by a hair for me.

:lol:

If it stays 50:50, I'd say that's a fair result.

That's a menacing bunch of trench-raiders Grimm. Like them a lot. Good luck in round 3!  :wink:
