War of the Roses - 1455

Once a royal hunting ground rich in history, Ashdown Forest now stands as a dense and majestic woodland area, revered for its towering trees and abundant wildlife. While the nobility once roamed its paths to hunt deer and harvest timber, the forest now serves as a crucial refuge amidst the turbulence of the War of the Roses, where skirmishes can erupt, and forces might gather under the cover of its canopies.
