   1645: Battle of Naseby, The debut of Cromwell's New Model Army where
   11,200 Roundheads defeated 13,800 Cavaliers. The Royalist cavalry had
   early supremacy but were distracted by the Parliamentary baggage
   train. By the time they returned the battle was lost . . . along with
   the King's infantry strength, his baggage, his private papers, his
   artillery, and ultimately the throne of England.
