16th Century Lists

Use the army lists to create your own customised armies using the Renatio et Gloriam Army Builder.

There are few general rules to follow

1. An army must have at least 2 generals and can have no more than 4.

2. You must take at least the minimum of any troops noted and may not go beyond the maximum of any.

3. No army may have more than two generals who are Talented or better.

4. Unless specified otherwise, all elements in a UG must be classified identically. Unless specified otherwise, if an optional characteristic is

taken, it must be taken by all the elements in the UG for which that optional characteristic is available.

5. Any UGs (except Artillery) can be downgraded by one quality grade and/or by one shooting skill representing less strong, tired or understrength troops. If any

bases are downgraded all in the UG must be downgraded. So Average-Experienced skirmishers can always be downgraded to Poor-Unskilled.

6 All armies in this book group moves by block move

Where allies are allowed, they must conform to the following rules:

1. They must be a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 4 UGs.

2. They must take UGs sufficient to get them to at least 50% of the minimums in the list being used except for artillery which are not compulsory in an allied contingent

3. They can thereafter take any troops up to the maximum to create the rest of the allied contingent.

4. Unless specified in the notes, the general must be the same type as the army commander in the main list but cannot be legendary.

Usually this results in 1-3 UGs being compulsory and you having full flexibility on the rest.

Where an internal ally is allowed, and no contingent is specified they must conform to the following rules:

1. They must be a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 4 UGs.

2. The total number of troops taken of each type in the entire army must not exceed the maxima for that troop type.

3. They must take UGs sufficient to get them to at least 50% of the minimums in the list if there is sufficient allowance for a UG after the core

army itself has taken the minimum.

4. They can thereafter take any troops up to the maximum to create the rest of the allied contingent.

Usually this results in 1-3 UGs being compulsory and you having full flexibility on the rest.

Henry VIII Tudor 1509-1524

Generals; - All instinctive. Terrain Cultivated CinC, if Henry is present, may be legendary, otherwise maximum Talented. If Duke of Suffolk (and after 1513 Norfolk) is present, he must be Talented.

Allies. Maximillian 1512 until 1524 (not with French), French from 1509 to 1512 (not with Maximillian)

Henry, in his youth, was enormously fit and athletic, only in his middle age and after taking a serious head wound jousting, did his personality and build change to the bloated figure of his popular image. Despite being

seen as a backwater of Medieval arms and tactics, with much of the army being still based round the ideas of Lords with their retinues and feudal service, Henry was very interested in continental developments including

using mercenaries and having one of the most impressive artillery parks in Europe and was keenly interested in the development of firearms too. When fighting on the continent Henry paid a huge amount to hire knights

and Pikemen, whose quality can only describe as variable. Archers may have stakes, archers and bills can interpenetrate each other, 50% of Landsknecht Pikemen maybe upgraded to Superior as veteran
