The battle of Prostki took place during the Second Northern War and was a decisive victory of Polish-Lithuanian forces numbering 10,000 men (mostly regular cavalry) supported by 2,000 Tatars and led by hetman Wincenty Gosiewski over a Swedish-Brandenburgian army of 6,500 regulars (nearly half of them infantry) reinforced by 800 Lithuanian-Polish cavalry of prince Boguslav Radziwill and led by prince Georg Friedrich von Waldeck. The battle was portrayed in the Polish movie "Potop" from 1974: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Deluge_%28film%29 More information on the battle can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Prostki http://www.halat.pl/article.php?2&2&fs;=poland2.html http://www.radoslawsikora.republika.pl/materialy/battlefields/battlefields.pdf
