By this date there were amalgamated with other Dalmatians and Croats troops, sometimes referred as Cimariotti or Cappeletti or simply Croats. They would look like any Balkan figures of that time. Donnington has a some figures if you dig trough Polish, Ottomans and Austrian ranges of the Warfare in t...

Good points! I was thinking of making a request like this. I especially found the Italian communal pavesari not well represented. This was a static defensive formation used specifically to counter knights and missile fire. It would be interesting to test a formation with 1/3 def. sp. and 2/3 cb. to ...

They suffer from having their punch delivered by very fragile troops, Elephants and protected Impact MF. I suspect that if Fog 2.0 gives better resilience for Elephants, than it can be a very competitive army, having a core of strong HF troops than most Elephants armies do not have.

I think this is more elegant and simple solution. Invader choose terrain from defender choices, I would go further in eliminating the adjustment rolls. You place a terrain feature, it stays there.

FWIW on the whole terrain issue I'd generally go back to a more DBM-like principle and say the terrain type must come from the loser of the PBIs territory types. Maybe with some tweaks. I think this is more elegant and simple solution. Invader choose terrain from defender choices, I would go furthe...

I am surprise by the difference between Mirliton and Venexia since Venexia built their Italian Wars line on the basis of matching Mirliton. Corvus Belli HYW line I have, and they are bulkier than mirliton. You really don't need to match any of these lines since they can fill all you need by themselv...

I saw the Finnish Cav. after I posted the last comment, but the French Early 17th c.List was the first I looked at since the reference to Turenne Cav. in the Rule book. My "War of Religion" book does not have any reference to Impact Mounted in the French list, so I am assuming a typo... so...

I am not a beta tester so do not have an army list.
I want to order these figures for a German Catholic TYW army.
What you will be a safe bet on amount of figures needed for 800 point?
Thanks

I think the change in the Macbeth army occur in 1050. At that time he went to Rome to visit the Pope, he returned with a body of Normans and it can only be logic that he bought some of the latest fashionable armor. He and his routine should be then be "Knight Lancers" as Normans of that ti...

I did not read it correctly. You were talking about allies. My personal opinion in regards to allies is different than a simple extrapolation of the main list. In this Feudal period, it should include only the best troops. For example it is now a new common finding that most of the attacking forces ...

Why not? At the Battle of Standard they had more knights than the English. Probably the only time in which Cavalry and Knights were significant in scottish armies.

I am working on a straight up Irish Army, and it seems that it can be competitive.
