Women in the New Model Legion

I’m not against women soldiers.  In classical literature there are always a few woman knights around dating back to the stories of the Trojan wars.  They also have done good work on the real world battelfield, especially in long term guerrilla warfare scenarios.  I try to include woman warriors but I also try not to get carried away with this.  Historically woman warriors were not unheard of but they also were not common.  It’s also important to me to show that a woman can be strong without knowing how to use a sword.  Lady Anne is one of my favorite characters for that reason.
