Brilliant I see free company allies can have English MI swordsmen longbow from 1415.

BUT who gets to pick them?
Aragon go french
Castilian go french or Navarrese
United Spain go Italian
Portuguese go English until 1389.

I am not entirely sure I understand the question, but if you are asking which lists can use the Free Company as an ally, the #235 Condottieri and #264 Medieval Cyprus can both use them.

Hmmm.
This seems to be a ‘list parsing’ question. And note the space for each list introduction is very limited, only permitting the briefest historical summary.

A brief glance in Wikipedia reveals that within the “crown of Castile” there were a number of kingdoms, Toledo, Cordoba, Leon etc. Similarly the ‘Crown of Aragon” ruled over several kingdoms like Naples, Sicily, Catalonia etc. Apparently the many kingdoms had a significant autonomy in their affairs, while there was also considerable political activity which resulted in several internal conflicts and rebellions eg Murcia and Galicia. There were also major conflicts between the “crowns”, with Portugal, Navarre and Grenada.

The list allows players to model armies and conflicts involving the major “crowns” by using the relevant allies, or if they choose, players can take a group of mercenaries including some English longbow men after 1415, which possibly models one of these kingdoms within a “crown”, or some minor conflict / rebellion etc.

(At least that’s my theory and I’m sticking to it 😀 )

Good grief Ramses.
Parsing?
You have missed the plot.

The actual question in a roundabout way was:-

Should the Portuguese 1390 date be removed/modified or the post 1415 longbow option be removed as an impossible choice. ?

Hope that helps.

same problem on french version.
As far as there will not be any new updates, consider that the Med Inf Lng Bow can not be used in the portugal option.
Besr regards

There were english allied contingents from 1360 to 1387. So i think outside of the "Heavy Longbowmen" option (Med Sword Longbow)
