“I do not make champions nor depose them; I only serve my lord.”
A French knight at Najera and a slightly aged wargamer from Darkest Wales
The list is finished! The figures are ready! The hotel will be booked when die Kaiser goes on her shot-blasting course tomorrow! My wargaming Sensei, Mark Fry ( and definately not any other Mark) suggested that the Free Companies list would better represent the forces of the Black Prince in Iberia, so here goes. Comments and abuse welcome😅
Corps one – The Black Prince’s Grand Company (competent commander) @3 points
Four heavy Knights impact@52 points
Two lesser men-at-arms medium cavalry impact @16 points
Corps Two. The Duke of Lancaster (competent) @ 3 points
Three foot Knights @36 points
Two longbow elite@ 22 points
Corps Three- John Chandos (competent ) @ 3 points
Three dismounted Knights @36 points
Two Gascon crossbow @14 points
Two bidets (0ne elite) javelin light infantry @9 points
Fortified camp @6 points
So there it is, very small but powerful. I’m definately in need of a waterway or terrain to anchor the flanks. It does allow an almost historical deployment of dismounted Knights flanked by archers and crossbows, with the Black Prince, D’Albret and Peter 1 ready to charge to their aid……we shall see?
