Mounted Crossbowmen Regiment
Rain bolts into the foe before your horsemen charge home!
The rise of pike-armed infantry during the Italian Wars rendered the cavalry charge - traditionally the ultimate arbiter of the medieval battle - far less effective. To counter this, heavy cavalry units began incorporating men with small but powerful crossbows, who would screen the advance of their more traditionally armed fellows, and deliver a point-blank salvo to break the cohesion of a pike block in the instant before a charge. This would eventually evolve with technology, and continue to be a feature of cavalry for the remainder of their military relevance. This pack gives you everything you need to field a full regiment of crossbow-armed cavalrymen in heavy armour, perfect for games of Pike & Shotte set in the Italian Wars.
Sculpted by Michael Percy. Studio miniatures painted by Shane Moore.
