Thanks for you replies guys food for thought, I need to get a few more practice games under my belt before deciding.

I am going to be taking the Navarrese to a 15mm 800pt comp. I can not decide if I should go with 3 bgs of 4 KN super hvy armoured lance and 1x 6 dismounted men at arms HF super hvy armoured HW. or 4 bgs of 4 KN hvy armoured lance. Each option will have some longsbow, Crossbow, LF battlegroups, it is...

I have almost completed painting my figures for the TYW but how I need to think about a camp, what tents did the Western European armies use? Or did they base their camps in villages and towns?

Donnington make sword and shield armed infantry in their New Era HYW range and there are quite nice. I mixed in a few spear armed chaps to give that come with what you got look.

From personal experience the Later Crusader army is CRAP in a comp. It does not have any flexibility you almost have to reply on your opponent to stand still while you thump him with your knights. The crossbows will loose in a shoot out with bow or longbow. I would do the Plantagenet over the later ...

I have just listed my Mongol army on Ebay if anyone is interested.

I am reading W.B Bartlett's book the Mongols. I have got the section about the Battle of Mohi, The battlefield is described as having many thickets, hills and vineyards -what does the army list allow the Mongols Steppes. The most of the terrain of the Mohi battlefield cannot be found in the steppe c...

Pete, I have purchased a lot Testudo figures from the manufacturer but I need a few extra packets to complete options for my army. My issue is Testudo charge 20 Euro minimum postage which makes small orders expensive. Will you post orders to Australia? If you will post to Oz what will be your charge...

Awesome I have been looking for a knight heavy army that can handle a bit of rough going. Are your longbows protected or unprotected and do you take the swordsmen option?

Will the Vikings stand a chance?

I am not sure if I think the Latin Greece is as good as it gets for Knight armies, personally the Spanish Knight and the Catalan company armies are better. Though the Latin Greece has one interesting option;
4xTC
52x LF poor bw
20x KN superior, hvy armoured lance
equals approximately 800pts.

Swedish foot being superior with salvo should beat the Polish German Mercenary foot. I have played a couple scratch matches with my Imperial Spanish against the Poles. I think the Poles should take LH with carbine and operate them in pairs of four to shoot up the Swedish horse then charge with the H...

Retreat to Moscow and wait for snow!

I would like some changes to the Later Crusader list to better reflect the individual Crusades the second, Third etc. The Later Crusader list works fine for the battles which were mostly Crusader only such as Hattin. Though it lacks the Character most notable for the Third, Fifth and Seventh Crusade...

Thanks for the serious answers.

As the first items in my music collection were made of vinyl records and cassette tapes, which is why I can not remember my high school algebra to do the maths for myself.

A normal terrain piece must fit inside a 12MU diameter circle, my questions is what is the dimensions of the biggest square or rectangle shape you can fit in the circle? The reason I ask is I want build a village with either a square or rectangle footprint and I would like to know what is maximum si...
