The commander of the fire ships was a Scot. Samuel Greig was born in Inverkeithing, Fife. He personally set the match to the fire ships and swam to his boats under fire. He was promoted to Admiral.

Today is the anniversary of the Battle of Culloden. So, only one option for the midweek game. Government forces in position. Highland charge warming up. 28mm using Lust for Glory! Lots of myths about this battle. Worth listening to Arran Johnston on latest @PrimeandLoad podcast.

Great episode. If anyone needs me I’ll be weeping quietly in the corner.
Tomorrow marks 280 years since the last Jacobite army took the field. In less than an hour, on April 16 1746, British forces defeated the Stuart cause. Part 6 of our Jacobite series drops tomorrow.
