Wargames Illustrated has gone Medieval with their newest addition to the Giants In Miniature collection. Harry Hotspur is now available for you to snap up so you can lead your English soldiers into the heart of battle.
Harry Hotspur // Wargames Illustrated
Henry Percy, 1st Earl Of Northumberland was pretty young when he got his knighthood from King Edward III. At twelve years old I doubt he did much fighting but he did end up earning the moniker of Hatspore/Hotspur from his foes because of the speed at which he campaigned in the North against the Scots.

Things would twist and turn when it came to both how favoured Harry was and where he placed his favour. He would side with Henry Bolingbroke in 1399 and then fight against him at the Battle of Shrewsbury in 1403.

Hotspur would finally lose his life during the battle as his army was defeated and routed. Still, a fascinating story surrounding a particularly intriguing character of the period. Henry Percy, 1st Earl Of Northumberland could end up being the start of a brand new army.

I was wondering if they would do some more Giants In Miniature! It’s been ages since the last one. Love this and also, I have a passing interest in this person having attended a LARP system for many years playing with a group based on the Percy Family of Northumberland
Nice.
