PanzerKaput Goes To Barons' War
The Peasant Levy
The LevyI have added some Levy, essentially, the infantry was raised in one of three ways, as members of a lord’s household, mercenaries or levied from a town or the countryside. Levies were not unarmed serfs expected to leave the fields; the harvest was too important to the landowner. The warriors we are levying were armed, had some training, and came from the upper peasantry; the tenant farmers who would have at one time had prior experience of a battle.
I have gone for the more muted and earth tones with these but have added a spot of colour to them as when looking at medieval pictures there seems to be a lot of colours on there and not just greens, browns and beiges.
