A thought has been festering away about trying to recreate Streeter's Plan of Naseby using my armies. Well today was the day... ably assisted by #4 son. Units are not historically accurate or placed accurately (I know I'm an idle slacker), and there are a few proxies (e.g. Waller's dragoons line Sulby Hedges rather than Okey's). And before anyone asks, there are quite a few figures that didn't make it onto the battlefield.
Lots of pictures can be found here; https://www.keepyourpowderdry.co.uk/2020/03/streeters-plan-of-naseby-in-15mm.html (https://www.keepyourpowderdry.co.uk/2020/03/streeters-plan-of-naseby-in-15mm.html)
