000 Heavy Knights: most important part in my army, equiped with heavy gothic-plate armor of proff (witch resist agaisnt arrow, crossbow blots, pistol or arquebus balls) armed with lances and swords. Mounted on knightly horses equiped with heavy armor (bard with flanchard, crinet, crupper, peytral, shaffron)
2 000 light cavalry of mounted archers protected by a light armor with cuirass and mail, gauntlet, greaves also armed with gun pistol and sword, mace and shield
My answer to your question; ever heard of leignizt? My tactic is that since heavy cavalary will never catch up with HA,shower them with arrows.Even barded horsed will die and the men's morale will flynch. I would use a simple turkish tactic using the parthian shot,makke them chase me,then my mongol cavalary will attack after you are dismounted,tired and angry.The mongol heavy cavalary will crush these tired men(ajn jalut,the mongols destroyed the entire left flank of the mamlukes)
Your 1000 archers will die beacuse we will chace them and kill them with litlle amount of men dieng because of the special mongol armour. The gunpowder men will fire slowly,no match against HA
Pikemen? Again, a simple turkic tactic would do
I am counting the impetious charge of "noble"cavalary. |

10 000 swiss pikemen will defeat anything in it's path, except maybe steppe horse-archers

How do choose your best medieval army (10 000 soldier)? Wich tactic do you choose? I prefer: 2/3 cavalry, 1/3 infantry CAVALRY : 5 000 Heavy Knights: most important part in my army, equiped with heavy gothic-plate armor of proff (witch resist agaisnt arrow, crossbow blots, pistol or arquebus balls) armed with lances and swords. Mounted on knightly horses equiped with heavy armor (bard with flanchard, crinet, crupper, peytral, shaffron) 2 000 light cavalry of mounted archers protected by a light armor with cuirass and mail, gauntlet, greaves also armed with gun pistol and sword, mace and shield INFANTRY - equiped with light chain mail, sallet, - armed with shield, long knifes, dagger, sword, war hammer or axe or mace for hand to hand combat 1 000 archers (mix of longbowmen and arbalestrers) 1 000 men armed with gunpowder (arquebus for exemple) 1 000 pikemen (like Swiss Halberdiers) with hallebards or fauchards or gisarme, Tactic: - First attack by infantry shooting against ennemy - Charge of heavy cavalry in 2 assaults to break ennemy ranks - Assault by the rest of heavy cavalry and all the light cavalry against flanks of ennemy - Attack by infantry With a good chain of command, my heavy knights can not be defeated by an other medieval army. Wath do you think? |
