Thank you for the information. That makes sence and explains a lot. I have still two questions for the moment: - Why do you rate the troops which go with the...
Hi, I have uploaded an ecclesiastical map of Britain in th Middle Ages and a sample of my test cards viz. the duke of Buckingham in 300 DPI. Regards Hans...
The use of 50 for Office troop strength is for simplicity. Some have extra in their area of command to reflect local emergencies. The Marshal's strength...
It's very difficult to find a high res picture that doesn't have an auto or telephone line in it! Another option could be to use one of John Speed's maps....

In my house rules I don't use bishops at all. They didn't play a role historically that I believe justifies their inclusion in the game. I understand that...
That is exactly the reason why I chose Carcasonne in the end. It would be impossible anyway to find pictures of all cities as they were in those days. It's a...
Thanks for the list. However, the problem is that it should also be comparable to the titles and nobles power either in troop strenght or in wealth. E.g. does...
Hello BP, Thanks again for you info. Where do you get your information on the coats of arms from? I have a few heraldic books which I use to get the ordinaries...
Thanks for the link. I've thought of doing this but couldn't find scans of the drawings before. Not all the towns are uploaded yet, but I have a full version...
My heraldry info is gleaned from many sources, I've yet to find a comprehensive and reliable list. I do have Foster, but as you know it's mainly 14th century...
Hello BP, That is a very nice link. I wonder where the heraldry information comes from. I will continue my search and give what I have found to you. I use...
I've uploaded my research (WotR_revenue) on nobles' annual revenue. The data might help if you're trying to determine relative power (if that indeed can be...

Could you explain the total income figures; what makes up the difference from lands income - offices etc? Is the offices info your own, and is there a map to...
I derived the nobles table from a variety of sources. I made it so long ago that I don't recall if the total column is based on my estimates or a source. I...
Here's some more research for you. It might help to know the precedence of bishops in order to determine at least their political influence. Again, I just...
I'd be very interested in a list of the temporal Lords attending, with order of seniority if possible, just in case I've missed a Lord or two. Since my cards...
Gents, I found a book by Chrimes, Ross and Griffiths called "Fifteenth Century England 1399 - 1509". I have not read it yet, but it contains lots of figures...
Yes, I have the book. Another I would recommend on the same theme is "The English Nobility in the Late Middle Ages" by Chris Given- Wilson, which contains...
The new town cards look great. The lettering could be more in "medieval" style. You now also have the arms of the towns you were looking for I think. Do you...
Not all of the maps have been posted, so I might have to scan them from my Atlas. I think all the towns I intend to feature (that is walled towns with their...
Interesting about the date...Henry VI year 32 works out at 1454, BUT the list inludes Lords Willoughby and Berners. In 1454 the Barony of Willoughby lay with...
I'll address York in another post. For Lancaster, I would suggest: 1. I agree with your decision to leave out Margaret of Anjou, who was nothing without her...
I've been trying to think up a useful role for Margaret; perhaps a regent not so much for Edward as for an incapacitated Henry. But even this Queen didn't...
I start my Kingmaker in 1460 post Wakefield, so there are only 3 Yorkists: Edward, George, Richard. This also means the Earl of Salisbury is dead, so the one...
I've posted scans of the latest noble cards. This now includes all titled nobles for the start date of October 1453. As always I'd be grateful for anyone...
