November 1542 CE

There have been preliminary border skirmishes once again between England and Scotland.

James's army has been weakened by the disaffection of the Protestant nobles.

Mutinous and poorly led, it crosses into England and on November 24 is easily routed near the border by an outnumbered English force at Solway Moss.
