That is the Holy Roman Empire, of course. See what I did there ;-).
At Warlord Games Open Day on 20th July, the Friends of General Haig will be re-fighting the Battle of Lutzen, 1632. This is a rerun of the game we put on at Salute this year (more details here https://www.beastsofwar.com/forums/topic/battle-of-lutzen-1632-refight-at-salute/).
Here is Albrecht Wallenstein, Imperial Commander.The battle of Lutzen pits the Holy Roman Empire’s Generalissimo, Wallenstein against the protestant alliance led by the Lion of the North, Gustav Adolf.
The Warlord Games Open Day takes place at their HQ in Nottingham. Details here

We are looking forward to getting the game out again, and we are hoping that we can help get some of the visitors involved in the game, for a turn or two, to get a taste of the Pike and Shotte rules. If you’re going then please come and say “hi”, and perhaps roll some dice with us ?.

@robert – thanks! Yes, the windmills do cut a bit of a dash on he terrain side. Also they provide a bit of height to what is a pretty flat battlefield.
@sundancer – a very interesting distinction! It is a battle with both sides made up of mainly Germans, so perhaps quite apt 🙂
@elessar – what a great song! Book marked. The horse above is carrying Albrecht Wallenstein, the arch enemy! I have used the rather dynamic Gustav figure Fromm Warlord, but I did need to construct a diorama to make it work. I’ve gone for the Swedish King, and his companions, leaping a damaged cannon. What do you think?
@avernos – thanks for the recommendation, Gerry! Will any of the BoW / OTT crew be visiting Nottingham for the Warlord Open Day? I know there have been in past years.
