I've been working on a Historical Battle for the Battle Of Flodden Field, which is a demonstration of how not to use european pike... I believe many people get confused between the european and Scottish pike - the Scottish pike being a much more sturdy affair... but more on that later coz I'm a wee bit pressed for time at the moment.

Don't get me wrong, given a choice, I usually fight with elite troops rather than pikemen... but pikemen undoubtedly get a bad press here (generally speaking).

What I would like someone to do is suggest two armies for me to use in a custom battle (vanilla setup) - one pike based for me to use offensively and an army of any other composition of your choice to fight against - I will then happily fight that battle and post the replay in this thread.
