1567: Battle of Farsetmore, Co between Hugh O'Donnell & Shane O'Neill. O'Donnell won (680–1400 killed) with few losses, with gallowglass & surprise! Freed themselves from O'Neill aspirations of ruling Ulster! Also had Lord Deputy of Ireland, Henry Sidney's backing!

Did a set of warriors with and 's characters inspired by medieval Ireland! They're dressed as a Gallowglass, a Fianna and a Kern. And their RL trip to Ireland sparked the idea!
