As I commented previou...They look fabulous, Simon. <br />As I commented previously, on paper, the Burgundians incorporated the best troops of the era. Their actual performance in battle was much less than the sum of the parts, however. Having said that, I could see a Burgundian army myself at some time in the future, LOL!

You will know that they were also supplied with nags to get them quickly to the battlefield a bit like dragoons. Another tactical idea he proposed was to place several rows of pikemen in front of the archers,to support each other. I dont know if the tactic was used but it did make sense, well for me it did.Independentwargamesgrouphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07019172667119107650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880538120094882531.post-38001212207746374822020-03-25T07:52:16.303+00:002020-03-25T07:52:16.303+00:00They look brilliant mate!They look brilliant mate!Millsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580692168847505881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880538120094882531.post-6454421073445423082020-03-25T07:21:51.349+00:002020-03-25T07:21:51.349+00:00Awesome job!Awesome job!Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08913029478686087197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880538120094882531.post-5718565320368653802020-03-24T22:14:02.058+00:002020-03-24T22:14:02.058+00:00Supurb Simon, they look lovely
