    Default Re: Decisive battles?

    I don't know what noble translates to in Danish but in my experience contemporary sources from France described knights and bannerets as "milites" and lords and above as "nobiles", that is, they drew the same distinction as was drawn in England. During the time of the HYW it became easy to identify the English nobility because they were, by definition, peers and everyone else wasn't. In other countries it may have been less obvious.
