They look like Cuirassiers on the left- is the dejected horseman Napoleon III with his painful piles at the Battle of Sedan?Vive la liberte. Noor Inayat Khan, Dachau.

Molly I think you're jeopardizing your 'amateur' status here. I could identify the country and the era from the uniforms, but the battle.......... ? Amazing!We need seperate human-only games for MP/PBEM that dont include the over-simplifications required to have a good AI

Well, it's obvious that that is the last battle for the French.

If I was really good, I'd get the artist too.
Looks like it might be Bouguereau, but I'm not sure.
I like the background, reminscent of Constable.
Anyway- this place is associated with two murdered monarchs, one ill starred monarch liked staying here, and another one gave it as a gift to a courtier.
It also endured two sieges, only giving in during the second one, its commander being another formidable woman.
Your questions gentlemen and ladies are:
name the castle
name the department/area/county it's in
name one of the murdered kings (one was killed there, one was held there, then taken and murdered elsewhere) and name the monarch who gave it as a gift to a courtier.
Your bonus round is to name the war in which it was besieged twice.Attached FilesVive la liberte. Noor Inayat Khan, Dachau.

Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

It kind of looks like a later era castle, but I don't know for sure.I drank beer. I like beer. I still like beer. ... Do you like beer Senator?

Well it's an English castle.
One of the kings sounds like he might have something do to with a polka, a red hot polka.
One of the monarchs had a father who was much married.
And the war, despite its name, was anything but.Vive la liberte. Noor Inayat Khan, Dachau.

Well the murdered King would be Edward II.
The castle is Berkely Castle.
It's in Gloucestershire.
It fell in the Civil War.
It was given to Francis Drake, so it was given by Elizibeth I.Last edited by chequita guevara; August 30, 2004, 12:15.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

Well, you're right in that it's in the south of the British Isles.
More Thomas Hardy country than Daphne du Maurier.
Not the Wars of the Roses, though.Vive la liberte. Noor Inayat Khan, Dachau.
