Peter Pig 15mm figures
Peter Pig is one of the world's leading 15mm figure manufacturers.  We make 6000 different figures and models.  These are distilled into   1800 (15mm) packs. Every range has an associated set of rules. Also, there are related 15mm scenery ranges to accompany the figure ranges.  In these days of wandering measures of sizes into 18mm, 12mm and other sizes close to 15mm; Peter Pig has remained true to the 15mm ideal.  These other sizes are often an attempt by a manufacturer to create a market  for just their peculiar size. It is also used by sculptors who cannot work well with the 15mm size restriction and so need extra size in order to create acceptable sculpts. Peter Pig will continue to do 15mm wargame figures.  We will also constantly return to each range in order to carry out updates and additions.
Thus we have  15mm ranges with longevity and future potential.

Range 23  Wars of the Roses

This is one of the most comprehensive WOTR ranges in 15mm. Of course there will be more releases as time goes by. One of the biggest inspirations for the figures is the artwork of Graham Turner, as seen in the Osprey campaign books.  Marvellous.

The range is intended to accompany the Peter Pig  "Bloody Barons" rules which specifically cover the WOTR.  
Of course they will go well with any other set too. We prefer specific and narrow "periodised" (made up word!) rules. This means the rules  focus on what is important to that specific period.

The figures are designed to withstand wargamer handling , painting and give the correct generic visual to a unit. Thus the archers are shooting and the other chaps are fighting. The figures are made to a 15mm size. They are probably not compatible with ranges of 18/19/20mm figures.

The label "Household" indicates troops with the best level of armour protection. These represent about 10% of the fighting troops.
The label "Retinue" indicates troops with the average level of armour protection. These represent 50% of the fighting troops.
The label "Levy" indicates troops with the poorest level of armour. These represent 40% of the fighting troops.

The 2nd Edition of Bloody Barons is now out

Visit to Bosworth battlefield 2019

For what it is worth here are my thoughts and details.
The landscape is fairly flat.
It has changed from rough common land in the 15th century to fielded, canal and levelled farmland.
There are a lot of small streams which were probably dug in order to drain the marshy bits.

The battlefield was surrounded by bits of higher ground. Sadly the higher ground they chose for the battlefield centre was he wrong bit. Whoops! The hill chosen by the council is called Ambion hill. This was the campground for the Yorkist army. The actual battlefield is about 1 mile away.

If you look at a battlefield layout from the pre 1970's re-site. Just stick a pin in the Ambion hill  and rotate the army deployments  by 90' anti clockwise.

There was a Roman road (Fenn lane these days) crossing the landscape. It was on this road that the two armies approached each other.

The battlefield is overlooked by two church/villages. Dadlington and Stoke Goulding. Dadlington had pits of dead bodies from the battle. The villagers looked over the battle from the church roof. Ambion hill could not be seen from Dadlington church.

It was the metal detectorists that found the cannon balls and trinkets that identified the battle correctly (?).

I am a complete amateur in "spotting the battlefield" but the evidence seemed very good indeed for the newer position.  The battle narrative does not change however, just the location.

Went to the place of Richard's death and found it to be  a bit of field near a tree.

The existing battlefield is bit of a non event. The new one needs signage and recognition etc...

The museum is very good though.
