In the early 1980s I started building of my first 15mm army having been introduced to Renaissance
wargaming and the Gush rules. In due course I changed to "De Bellis Renationis"
or DBR. After a gap of several years, due to lack of opponents, I have blown the
dust of my small collection of figures, supplemented it with additional
purchases, and have once again deployed them for
battle.
My primary interest in the period
covered by the rules is the the English Civil War. It is in itself a
wonderfully colourful period, both from the perspective of uniforms of the
combatanats but also of the many historical characters. What wargamer hasn't heard of Prince Rupert, Oliver Cromwell or
Montrose. The many famous battles, along with smaller ones raged across the gentle fields of
England through to the highlands of Scotland and the occasionally the bogs of
Ireland.
