About Strongbow's Shield
A 1-day wargames event in Dublin during August.
The Historical Strongbow
Our competition is named after Strongbow or Richard fitz Gilbert de Clare, Earl of Pembroke (1130AD - 1176AD). Our logo features his seal.
Who was this guy?
The short answer is that he was the leader of the Norman expedition to Ireland in 1169-1170AD and so he fills a role similar to that of William the Conquerer in Irish eyes.
