Pike & Shotte Epic Battles - Battle of Breitenfeld Thirty Years' War Collection
The Battle of Breitenfeld (September 17, 1631), in which the Swedish-Saxon army of King Gustav II Adolf of Sweden defeated and destroyed the imperial army of Ferdinand II (commanded by Count Tilly), was the first major Protestant victory of the Thirty Years' War. The battle demonstrated that Swedish tactics could triumph over the increasingly-dated massive infantry formations that had dominated European warfare for decades prior, and earned Adolphus the moniker the "Lion of the North".
In this battle both sides set up with their cavalry supporting the flanks. To make sure you are able to do the same on the tabletop, we’ve included three Pike & Shotte Epic Battles – Thirty Year’s War cavalry boxed sets in this Battle of Breitenfeld Collection. When combined with the cavalry in the Push of Pike starter set, you’ll have the makings of a fine Thirty Years’ War Epic Battles cavalry wing.
