List 172, Norman or Frankish.

Under Conquest of England (1066) are listed Breton Allies (list 145)
replace 1/3 to 2/3 of milites
heavy spearmen armour

I recall Bretons at Hastings being cavalry, not heavy infantry. Also list 145 has no heavy spearmen. So I've decided to allow the use of heavy/medium cavalry instead in our planned game tonight. Of course my opponent has yet to decide if we are playing Normans vs. Anglo-Danes or Crusaders vs. Seljuk Turks.

A really minor typo in list 220 Swiss. Just after fortified camp it says seulement jusqu'a 1400 which I assume is only up to 1400. I also found a vestige of French in another army list but can't recall which one. I will post it if and when I rediscover it.

if my memory is good (no book at job) norman at hasting MUST dismount 1/3 2/3 of milites in heavy lancer and MAY have breton allies, who are mostly mounted.

That certainly makes more sense. It is not what I got from the list but then I'm easily confused. It will confuse my opponent even more. I hope he decides to go with the Crusader - Seljuk Turk pair.

By the way, I will cheat and use Huns as Seljuk Turks.

Oh my, the Seljuk Turks got stomped. Perhaps tomorrow I will post an AAR and a lesson on how not to use light horse archers.

Hello

In the option "Conquest of England", you MUST replace 1/3 to 2/3 of Milites with Heavy Spearmen.

You MAY also have a Breton allies.

My favourite typo is the Feudal French infantry armed with "words and axes". Presumably they hurl Monty Python-style insults.
