Hello.

I want to start out a thread on the Mercenaries forums for a new clan I will make. But, I would like to write a little bit about the history of England in the XIV century. So, my question is if anyone can help me out gather as much information as possible for this time period in England.

What I really want to learn about the most:

1. All the troop types, and their accurate equipment.
2. The banners they had and which ranks in their armies.
3. And finally, I want to know more about the lords, their equipment, their role in the historical battles etc.

Sounds less like "I would like to write a little bit about the history of England in the XIV century" and more like "I'd like to make a historical English troop tree", TBH.

Actually, I am interested in the history also, I want to know more information, but I am specifically interested in that what I said.

I think I ninja'd Matmo with many of his own images.  :lol:
 
Thank you both very much for the links and pictures! They are very useful.
 
A wonderful book on life in fourteenth-century England. Doesn't relate much about the specifics of medieval warfare, but it deals extensively with the differences between life in either of the three estates. Expect to learn about how you would have dressed, eaten, courted, socialised and made a living in late medieval Europe, to name but a few aspects covered in this book.
