Description
Reconstrucion of Battle of Warsaw (1656) in Deluge time.
The term Deluge (Polish: Potop) denotes a series of mid-17th century campaigns in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. In a wider sense it applies to the period between the Khmelnytsky (Chmielnicki) Uprising of 1648 and the Truce of Andrusovo in 1667, thus comprising the Polish-Lithuanian theaters of the Russo-Polish and Second Northern Wars. In a stricter sense, the term refers to the Swedish invasion and occupation of the Commonwealth as a theater of the Second Northern War only (1655–1660); In Poland (and Lithuania) this period is called the Swedish Deluge (Lithuanian: Švedų tvanas, Polish: Potop szwedzki).
During the wars the Commonwealth lost an estimated one-third of its population as well as its status as a great power.

Bardzo fajnie dym się ułożył, tak samo jak i żołnierze - poza tym tematyka bliska sercu
