Scotland Is the Key

Or so many of King James the Second’s commanders believed.  Certainly, had he secured Scotland and struck for Newcastle to indict the Coal Trade Prince William might have gone home to think again.  As it was James didn’t concur and William conquered the islands.  It is a great ‘what if’ though and one I intend to get around to next year.

All the regular soldiers here are from Irregular and the Highlanders are from a wide range of manufacturers.
