If Tyrone had even a small number of old-style Gallowglass, the slaughter would have been much greater. But the Irish transition to the earl's modernised force meant the potentially decisive shock action of a few hundred heavily armoured infantry just wasn't available
#Otd 1534: "Silken Thomas" Fitzgerald, 10th Earl of Kildare, heard rumours his father executed. Rode to St Mary's Abbey, Dublin with 140 gallowglasses! Renounced allegiance to cousin King Henry VIII! Henry confined his father to the Tower! Revolt followed! Father d. months later!
OTD 1596 Capt Dowdall reported Tyrone's had 'drawn the greatest part of their kern to be musketeers & their gallowglass pikes, they want no furniture neither of muskets, fowling pieces, calivers, swords, graven morions, powder and shot'..'how cometh?'-good question #nineyearswar

@mcclean_johnny Different things, gallowglass heavy armoured infantry originally from Scotland (but now living in Ireland). Redshanks were seasonal troops raised in west of Scotland and isles, light infantry armed with swords, targets and bows.
#FolkloreThursday was brought to you by @CentreMyth @HerbalStorytell @MythCrafts @HistoriumU and @ShanonSinn. Thanks hugely to everyone participating for your patience during the day, and a huge THANKYOU to our hosts who went above and beyond! (Image:wiki commons Gallowglass)
The English poured fire from both flanks with muskets which out-ranged the defenders smaller calivers. Capt. Lee was one of the officers who led the assault which saw them 'wading through to their arm holes'. 300 Irish were killed primarily MacSweeny gallowglass & Scots redshanks

In medieval Ireland, many Irish lords imported skilled mercenaries from the West Highlands. These Scots-Norse “Gallowglass” were elite warriors who achieved privilege in Irish society. By Dürer’s time, many were from powerful families who'd acquired their own estates in Ireland.

Okay, let's get this party started (pun intended).
I'm in a Pathfinder game, with the path Carrion Crown, and here's our hapless bunch (from L to R): Achilles Magnus (arcanist), Corbin Kingsley (fighter), Mikael Koskinen (investigator), and Gilver Gallowglass (oracle).

Commission for @YaBoiTurbo96 of his deer as a Gallowglass. Could've done better with the lighting on the church or the ground, but I like how the colors came out in this one!
