VukTeble Latin Greece & Seldjuk 1205-1319

48-18

Latins ? Yeah, frenchies, you mean ? With some mercenary turcomans...no problem.
We will deploy in the famous Amazings Anglo-Angles to counter any attemps to flank our proud bowmen.
The Irish, lightly equipped, run fast and will go hunting for cavalry.
Many will fall, but they will allow the English nobility to collect the crumbs.

It will appear that the turcomans were not well paid and did not show much zeal to attack the right flank of our army, its weak point. The time saved will make it possible to break through the center of the Latin army.

Good battle Maeglyr, learned a lot. Your kerns and irish foot were a lot more effective in flanking my pinned cav than I would have thought as well. Overall I misjudged which units I would face, and how to counteract the deployment pattern you chose.

rockmanbob123 - French 1115-1319

63-55

Seems to be easy to take that hill and flank this boatload of knights. But I didn't count the point, silly me.
Cunning crossbows !

The violent liquidation of my intrepid left wing leaves me behind throughout the battle.
Fortunately, my main infantry corps was able to withstand the shock of this damned French "noblesse".

Patiently, we surrounded and eliminated the knights, paying a flood of blood for each spur.

In the end, the French had to withdraw, for lack of troops still operational.
We were holding the battlefield, but at what price?

defeats
Rockmanbob123: French 1115-1319

62-40

The second sons of France and self-made emperors, kings and princes of the remains of the Byzantium, overtired of their older, favored brothers who stayed home and inherited titles like "Count" returned to France to show them what worth an inheritance and favored child status is.

As this was a family grudge match, only the flower of chivalry was allowed to participate with a few villeins fighting each other on one of the flanks and some Seljuk mercenaries who came along looking forward to looting their employers' motherland.

Battle opened with an attack by France's Sergeants, Mounted Crossbow, and one unit of Knights on the small hill trying to turn that flank. They were mostly shot to pieces. Meanwhile the Seljuk allies advanced on the other flank and enjoyed a fun game of tag with the knights there. The center was relatively static until Rockmanbob123 saw an exposed flank on one of the Latin knights and knocked a hole through it.

After the defeat of the Sergeants and Mounted Crossbows he brought out his crossbow and Low Country spears against the hill which managed to hold. Meanwhile the Latin knights were charging down their brothers and the Seljuqs were sniping off the weakened ones.

[Solemnace]

Division A

Solemnace Tuareg 950CE-1500CE defeats cromlechi German Imperial 1200-1319 AD 47-18

Wasn't entirely sure I'd get to make a post here.

The Tuareg foot on the right held a firm line using rough ground and woods to try and delay any attack on them by the many dismounted knights the Germans had brought. The many knights slow advance would have been a sound strategy but the Germans had brought too many knights and their cost meant they couldn't protect the entire extended line they were forming the Mass of Tuareg Camel Lancers were able to sweep around their right flank and through gaps to devestate both their back line and the edge of their right flank destorying Spearmen left with exposed flanks, Archers and crossbowmen insuffciently protected and even mounted knights whose horses paniced at the smell of Camels and had no support to protect their flanks from devestating charges. WIth the Camels ripping apart the German army from behind the entire army collapsed and had no choice but to flee.
