English may utilise stakes as allowed in the rules.

The identity of the Godendag used with such telling effect on the French is not certain, but probably consisted of a large club with a long blade/spike in the top.

The Low Countries armies always tried to have an area of marsh or broken/prepared ground to their front to break up, or channel the enemy horse, hence the core allowance.

This army is really based on earlier forces to avoid the need for organ guns, hand gunners and such. Those wishing to use the later armies in non-tournament games will need to develop rules for organ guns (count hand gunners as X-bow) and upgrade the FT 5[1]1 to 6[0]0 pikes.

Whitehoods were mercenary pillagers noted for having scant regard for human life (their own included).
