| + | *December 2020: News of the BCW community using lockdown productively! Sean Cresswell has just published a new Chronology of the English Civil Wars, see our [[notes:sources-and-links:start|Links and Sources]] page. Mike Chetham has been writing an excellent blog on wargaming the ECW and I've added links to his coats and flags articles at our [[notes:articles:start|Articles]] page. If you have a new resource to add, please get in touch and I'll be very happy to link to it from this site. | ||
| + | *March 2020: All the very best to everyone during coronavirus quarantine, please stay safe from 'vile contagion' as our predecessors would have put it. I hope to spend some more time formatting Victor's many great updates on the Royalists, there's quite a backlog to catch up with still. | ||
| + | *November 2019: Lots and lots of updates to catch up with from Victor on the Royalists and new BCW user muireagan on the Irish Confederates, many thanks both! Meanwhile I've run into an odd problem editing pages, if you get the error message //Security Token did not match. Possible CSRF attack.// when you try to save an edited page, you'll need to log in again using [[https://wiki.bcw-project.org/start|https://]] in front of the wiki website address, then best to update your bookmarks. | ||
| + | *January 2019: A whole year since last update; Victor's been adding lots of Royalist info, which I still haven't caught up with yet. Meanwhile a fascinating new web resource has appeared [[https://www.civilwarpetitions.ac.uk/|Civil War Petitions]] that shows Royalist and Parliamentarian soldiers' petitions relating to the Civil Wars. | ||
| + | *January 2018: It's been quiet over the New Year, but Victor has added information on [[royalist:foot-regiments:sir-edward-norris|Sir Edward Norris’ Regiment of Foot]] a little-known regiment in garrison at Warrington. | ||
| + | *October 2017: Victor Judge helped sort out the tangled histories of [[royalist:foot-regiments:john-arundell|Sir John Arundell's Cornish Trained Band Regiment of Foot]] and [[royalist:foot-regiments:john-trevannion|Colonel John Trevannion’s Regiment of Foot]], as well as providing great information on [[royalist:dragoon-regiments:james-ussher|Colonel James Ussher’s Regiment of Dragoons]] and several Royalist foot regiments. | ||
| + | *July 2017: New BCW wiki user black-watch-1745 has found a list of the [[trained-band:devon:devon-trained-bands-in-1633|Devon Trained Bands in 1633]] and descriptions of one of the regiment's flags. | ||
| + | *July 2017: News of a very interesting online resource, [[http://www.british-history.ac.uk/no-series/cromwell-army-officers|The Cromwell Association Online Directory of Parliamentarian Army Officers]] by Tim Wales and Stephen Roberts, hosted by [[http://www.british-history.ac.uk/|British History Online]]. This lists 4000 Parliamentarian officers of the First Civil War and gives brief biographies. | ||
| *May 2017: In our [[notes:articles:|Articles Section]] we are very fortunate to bring you a series on standards of the ECW, originally published in Military Modelling magazine by Charles Kightly and Anthony Barton. | *May 2017: In our [[notes:articles:|Articles Section]] we are very fortunate to bring you a series on standards of the ECW, originally published in Military Modelling magazine by Charles Kightly and Anthony Barton. | ||
