I planned to add four extra bases, but when I've based them up I appear to have created six - but this will allow evenly sized 'wings' of longbowmen for the English set up. All are Perry plastics and are based on 50mm square bases, as per the rest of my HYW. At previous games we've used two together to create units for Impetus rules - which seems to work Ok for a display game where the minutiae of record keeping is best avoided, to enable the players to chat with visitors and have time for their own look around the show. We'll discuss with the players what we're going to do for this years game.
Now, back to those French...

Simon, just out of interest, will you be presenting an Anne Curry revisionist version of the battle, or a more traditional Juliet Barker version? Thanks,Dave
ReplyDeleteHi Dave- always impressed with Anne currys work. Considered setting up french as per their battle plan, which was found a few years back, and see how it goes. Simon
DeleteThat would be interesting to see Simon. From the modest reading I have done I fall a bit between the two camps. I dont believe the French army was as huge as generally accepted in the past but nor do I totally agree with Anne Curry's boosting of the English numbers.
