Edward the III, the Black Prince
In addition one of my goals this year I will also be building a historical 14th century chateau for my TTSFN (total Terrain System For Now) table.
Edward the Black Prince, a miniature sculpted by the Perry twins. Released by Warhammer Historical quite a long time ago. I painted it for the “Metal” painting competition on the guild Wargamers forum.
We visited the Poitiers battlefield last September and walked quite a bit of it. The signs need some work but happy to see it not completely surrounded by houses.
Nearby I would recommend visiting Abbaye Saint-Junien de Nouaillé-Maupertuis in the valley. A wonderful Fortified medieval Abbey with many stages of construction, much of the grounds are walkable. A book on the Battle and the Abbaye is available in French at the L'Hotel de Ville located in the Abbaye gatehouse.
