ECW Loyal Alliance. Cavalry 1640-1660.
Loyal Alliance are three fictitious states that decided to support the King in his fight against Parliament in the British Isles in 1642-1651. The appearance of the soldiers corresponds to the fashion and style of their era. All fictional elements are sustained in the logic and style of their era. The album contains sheets with universal rank-and-file fighters and separate sheets with officers of all three game fractions. You can print the required number of soldiers and officers separately. The Royalist Cavalry was the striking force of the armies of the King and Prince Rupert. By the middle of the century¸ the cavalry armor on the Islands had acquired its own special form - a cuirass¸ a helmet and a special plate glove on his left hand. Fearless but undisciplined riders - we depicted a "Chevalier" on horses galloping to attack. In the middle of the 17th century¸ the "Karakole" technique was still used on the British Isles - part of the cavalry was armed with short arquebuses and fired at the enemy before the attack or as support for the Allied attack. We depicted such cavalrymen firing on the spot. The appearance of the soldiers on both sides of the conflict was so similar that the soldiers were forced to improvise and decorate themselves with colored ribbons in order to distinguish between themselves and strangers. So that players can easily recognize the sides of the conflict¸ we color the Royalists' background in sand color¸ and the Parliamentarians in smoky gray. The album contains 8 color sheets for self-printing and making game figures. Stands and bases are not included in the album and are made by the players themselves in accordance with the requirements of the selected rules of the game.
