Title: Thirty Years War in Hong Kong - Oldendorf 1633
Post by: Keraunos on 15 December 2024, 03:06:03 AM
Another big battle from the Thirty Years War at the club yesterday, pitting Swedish and German troops against an Imperial army in the 1633 battle of Oldendorf.

The allied commanders (mainly me) failed to emulate the historical commanders and secure a victory (though George on the left was doing well).  A full write up and more pictures here (https://d6onod6.blogspot.com/2024/12/the-battle-of-oldendorf.html).
