Description: Pike & Shotte - Montero Caps PackSummary: Set of unpainted conversion pieces for Pike & ShottePike & Shotte is a 28mm historical tabletop wargame covering the Thirty Years War, English Civil Wars, Italian Wars and Wars of Religion.The 17th Century saw catastrophic war in Europe, a conflict so savage that its like had hitherto had been unknown, especially to the civilian population. The Thirty Years War ravaged whole countries and populations, whilst the first truly national armies marched and counter marched over Europe. Meanwhile, in Britain, the King was losing power to an aggressive, self-assured Parliament, galvanised be new ways of thinking, by religion and by personal ambition. The two parties were on a collision course to war and when it came in 1642 caught the country unaware and unprepared. The hastily raised armies clashed many times before Parliament triumphed, then succumbed to in-fighting, before the Restoration of Charles II. Warlord brings you all the main protagonists for both wars, Grand divisions, Tercios and whole wings of glittering cavalry are yours to command, led by gentlemen of honour whose names are remembered today, men who commanded and fought in the front ranks: Rupert, Fairfax, Wallenstein, Gustavus Adolphus, Montrose and MacColla "the Devastator".The Montero was a vey popular and practical hat issued widely to soldiers on both sides. It seems to have originated in Spain where hunters favoured it, as it gave good shade to the eyes, was not broad so that it would be knocked off by foliage and was warm.The sides could be folded down to cover the ears and chin making it a perfect hat to wear on sentry duty or on a winters night. They were made from cloth and cut to shape, and they certainly came in all shapes and sizes, some with square peaks, others markedly pointed. The Royalist armies in Oxford were re-equipped with Suits and Monteroes, likely all of the same colour, e.g. red or blue. Rupert himself was described as wearing a red monteroe with a feather, so officers and rank and file can all wear them, just make the gentlemen’s hat a bit posher!Caps.
