Along with the new tactics they spurred and encouraged, these new developments dealt a mortal blow to the dominance of heavy cavalry, precipitating the end of the Age of Chivalry. Arbalestiers While requiring greater skill to operate than its counter part, the more common European Crossbow, the Arbalest, when in able hands, shot deadly bolts that pierced the thickest of all armors. Spearmen Its shaft growing ever longer with the years, and its tip often reinforced with metal strips, the spear made attacks on well-organized ranks of pikemen a very delicate, often life-shortening, proposition. Halberdiers Gaining prominence in the latter years of the war, the Halberd's unique backside hook soon became the bane of mounted troops, who fell victim to its devastating grappling capabilities. This expansion requires a copy of BattleLore to play. |
