Medieval Danish vs. Germans

Some nights ago Michael played with his Later Medieval Danish army against Steve and his Medieval German army.
Michael had a good plan, but as usual he strayed from the plan when he saw his opponents set up… In this case it turned out to be the right decision. He moved his two BG of Knights from the center to his right flank.

Blue for the Germans and Red for the Danish.

He pushed forward on his right flank and the 2 BG´s of mounted X-bowmen chased of the German LH. Then the German knights tried to charge the mounted X-bowmen but they evaded safely behind  2BG of superior knights.

The 2BG´s of superior knights charged a BG with German average knights.. Michael thougt this would be a peice of cake…

But the German knights put up a real fight and managed to wipe out one BG of superior knights before they broke. The Danish Knights wheeled and planned to attack the German center in the flank.

Meanwhile in the center:

The German center with 2 huge BG´s of Pike had advanced and charged the Danish Select Levy. It was a bitter fight, and the Danish line started to crumble, a unit of poor General Levy started to run and the Select Levy had taken a hard beating.

But then  dusk came and saved the day for the Danish army. The armies couldn´t  continue to fight. They gathered their losses as the Commanders had to go to the local pub and discuss their tactics:)

The end positions. A very Marginal Victory for the Danish army 6-4
