As I understand version 2.0, Mercenary men-at-arms rated drilled, average can be used as undrilled, superior. Since the Ordonnance Burgundian list has drilled, average Ordonnance or other mercenary men-at-arms as a troop type, I would assume that the mercenary men-at-arms could be used alternatively as undrilled, superior. Is this correct?

A second question regarding the Later Medieval German list. The "lighter men-at-arms" in this list (average, drilled) are not mentioned as being able to dismount, whereas in the Medieval German City Leagues list, the "lighter men-at-arms" (average, drilled or undrilled) are specified as being able to dismount as HeavyFoot - Heavy Weapon, drilled or undrilled, as mounted type (page 62). Is this just an oversight in the Later Medieval German list or was there some historical reason for the difference in the lists regarding dismounting of these lighter men-at-arms?

Thanks.

I believe so - yes.

I can't help you with that one - sorry.

Storm of Arrows preceded Lost Scrolls by a few years, and the Later Medieval Feudal German and Later Medieval German City Leagues were issued to broaden the options for Germans a bit. You can tell by the absolute lack of historical background in the Later Medieval German list that it was slapped together without a lot of deliberation. Perhaps some day when the lists are updated these things will be remedied.
