Yep, it's another Neville tossing their hat in the ring of the Wars of the Roses!
This time it is Sir William Neville of Skelton, Earl of Kent .
His men wear his livery - Argent and Azure.
Sir William supported the Yorkist cause.
He and his men fought at First St Albans, Northampton, Second St Albans, and Towton.
Yes indeed...that's exactly the problem ....far too many Nevilles...plus too many kings with the same three names! I am currently reading "Kingmaker, Broken Faith" by Toby Clements, the second book of four in his WotR fiction series!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to keep a look out for that one!
DeleteAnother fine unit, ready for H-Con . How close are you to ready?
ReplyDeleteI spent the weekend refurbing, basing, and flocking the rest of Bill's Medieval infantry; "film at 11",. as they say! :-)
DeleteI have 5 weeks and 2 infantry units and 8 command bases to do - should be fine,
Also, my banners and flags from Pete's Flags arrived yesterday!
Another fine looking regiment
ReplyDeleteThank you, Neil!
DeleteAnother pleasing livery colour scheme Peter. It will be great to see a parade of all units together once they are completed.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lawrence. A grand muster can be expected mid July, shortly before Historicon!
DeleteSplendid looking billmen! Another fine unit!
