Cromwell's Cavalry Army

Historical Description[]

The Ironside Cavalry were formed by Oliver Cromwell in the 17th century during the English Civil War. They were equipped much like other cavalry of their day but enjoyed superior morale, training, and leadership. Cromwell defied centuries of military tradition by promoting their officers based on merit rather than social status. He preferred to recruit devout Puritans like himself, which lent them a spirit of common cause as they felt they were fighting on God's side.

They demonstrated their discipline at the decisive battle of Marston Moor in 1644 when they broke the Royalist cavalry's right wing. In previous battles, the Royalists had accomplished similar feats but then squandered the advantage by charging off to chase the fleeing opponent. Cromwell's horsemen resisted this impulse, instead turning to help the Parliamentarians crush the rest of the enemy. The unit's success led them to serve as the template for the New Model Army that ultimately led the Parliamentarian side to victory.
