Medieval Tactics.

[Shottie]

Howdy again all,

I'm not new here and from past experience I've noticed that EVERYONE here gives go advice/incites/opinions. My question is what are some good books on War in the Middle Ages? :book: I'm not looking for one in particular but if you have 5 or 5 million good books on this subject what is the best one. I have many books on other topics in history but not many on the Middle Ages or the battle tactics. Thank you. :bow:

The best place you can ask is the monastery forum. There are all the historians of this site. Personally, I don't know much about Medieval tactics, but I hear the Osprey (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=32765) books on the subject are good, though sometimes lacking in detail.

Well I dont think there are books like "101 battle tactics of the Middle Ages" ~:)

But one book that I can recommend is "The art of warfare in Western Europe during the Middle Ages" by J.F Verbruggen

edit: oh and "War in the Middle Ages" by Philippe Contamine
