Welcome to the Strelets Forum. Please feel free to discuss any aspect of 1/72 scale plastic figures, not simply Strelets. If you have any questions about our products then we will answer them here.
I stand corrected, instead of English I should have said British government forces. Nevertheless, I hope that Strelets have already started working on Jacobite enemyopponent sets because as Hank noted above, there is no point buying sets with no one to fight! (Like the Stelets US Cavalry).
The Irish fellas who faced the followers of William III (Williamites) at the Battle of the Boyne were also Jacobites.
Osprey have got it right
give dates - the Jacobite Rebellions 1689-1745
a specific army- the Scottish Jacobite Army 1745-46
a type of warrior- The Highland Clansman 1689-1746
Irish Jacobites fought the British (Prince William the Duke of Cumberland) at the Battle of Fontenoy in 1745 as the Irish Brigade of the French army and were part of what inspired Bonnie Prince Charlie to unsuccessfully reclaim the Kingdom for the Stuarts.
So the British should be called Hanoverians though Government forces seems OK but the Jacobites by the look of them are Scottish Jacobites or Highland clansmen.
