erastesIt's moving along, but gah! the mistakes one finds !!
I'm describing the Battle of Edgehill and I go and say that the right flank of the King'S cavalry attacked the right flank of the Parliament's. Idiot!
Only if
1. they galloped diagonally across the flood plain OR
2. They were both facing in the same direction.
*kicks self*
I also mention SHRAPNEL. Yeah. In 1642. Riiiiight...... That would have been hard to live down as my fellow historical novelists laughed in my face.
It's a worry!

but for saying that when a movie is gloriously and unabashedly wrong and plainly doesn't care - see 300 - it's great fun
