Arrgh, there is a bug, I mean, mod in my shoe! I mean, my sig.

And for that reason I am in craving of INFORMATION and thought that the Monastery would obviously be the best place to come.

A few questions to the people:

1. Doeth though know of any Battles which took place in Europe between 1400 and 1550 (not including Furnovo, San Romano, that one near Milan with the French vs the Spanish and constantinople)

2. Doeth though also know of a good Website to go to to find out about the likes of weapons, militia, troops etc.?

3. Can though explaineth the things the likes of weapons, troops, militia etc.?

4. Looking at the other thread (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=35691) can though telleth thee of accuracy of factions and current units?

5.Is the Olde English I just used correct?

Thank you for posting.
