Range 23-  "Bloody Barons" 

  The  Wars of the Roses

The Wars of the Roses represent the highest point of  medieval armour and technology. The armies usually fought on foot. 
The battles were characterised by massive amounts of archery followed by bloody melee.

The rules are called "Bloody Barons" and cost £14
Matt Eastwood has supplied some nice WOTR Pictures. Thanks Matt.

Dave is working on the paint aspect and Sean has already painted up some archers!!!

Dave and Sean  are GOOD! (Thanks chaps)

These are all from the "levy archer" pack.
