Red, the Rose of Angry Lancasters, White, the Rose of Angry Yorks 'You'll Need Rosé to Get Through this Timeline' 136 views 1 year ago WARWICK Spectacular Medieval Jousting - Brought to you by the Knights of Middle England, witness the iconic history of the Wars of the Roses come to life before your eyes.

I had fun trying to come with titles for this timeline: Warwick also had powerful friends outside of Englands borders.

However, I have included still photographs of the flaming trough, fireball landing site and the trebuchet team.I designed this timeline in Powerpoint and got it printed out at Staples as a “blueprint/architectural and engineering print.” This is SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than printing it as a poster, and you can just buy a foam board yourself and use rubber cement to paste it on if you need it to have more stability.

The invasion was the result of the Angers agreement between the Earl of Warwick and Margaret of Anjou. Reloading and firing it takes 8 people about 30 minutes. This trebuchet has a counterweight and two treadwheels (occupied by four people in total) to pull back the counterweight, and is loaded with a burning projectile. A narrator explains historical circumstances, military tactics and technical specifications.
