The inherent advantage medieval armies have is not the knights IMO.

It's the protected light horse, and the generally higher levels of armour they have in their "standard" medium and heavy foot that really causes imbalance. And maybe the smaller units of light foot in great numbers

Knights are a red herring

My entry is going in tomorrow or over the weekend. Just minded the other Wycombe Warband about the rapidly approaching entry date.
