Thank you friend!

Looking forward in seeing your new units OW! Thank you for watching my friend!

You may be correct my friend! I did my research before shooting the video but I am no expert by any means! Thank you for watching!

Thank you my friend! Glad you enjoyed the video! I wish the heraldry you see was hand painted.. but no chance.. haha but i have a good trick for you.. all these are Web images i Reduce to required size using PowerPoint and then i print on any type of paper.. even transfer paper and then i glue on the shield or flag..i have a video in the Heraldry playlist.. here is the link have a look..ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ALljpzXXsFA.html

@@MedievalWargamer haha I saw that video earlier added it to my watch later list but haven't had a chance to. Will do later on this evening. Thanks. Awesome idea!

The shield you like is the famous cammander and constable of France Bertrand Du Guesclin.. I was also surprised while researching the video with all the different meanings every single shape had on a shield.... Also the nobles should have been able to locate each other in order to avoid killing someone worth a lot of momey if captured alive... 😂Thank you for watching my friend!

Thank you Gav!!Well let me explain to you how it worked.. the men employed directly by himself to be his arms men - would probably wear his colours - so for example, a heavy padded jacket made up of four sections of cloth in two of the lord's colours, with the diagonal-opposites being in matching colours. They would also likely wear his sigil (eg White Boar) sewn onto their breast. During battle, they would start grouped together under a banner displaying the colours and/or the sigil. However, over time, the lower lords didn't always have a standing army - it was expensive. So they would either hire professional arms-men when they needed them or they would gather (volunteers or strong-armed) peasants in from the villages they controlled. These peasants would have an arming/padded jack (heavily padded jacket) if they were lucky. They would be very unlikely to have the lord's colours. Hope my answer helps my friend!

Thank you Nik for the very comprehensive reply marra its kind of you to answer . Regards Gav.

No problem Ewan please ask anything you want! First of all welcome to the channel and thank you for subscribing! These are 28 mm miniatures from Claymore Castings.

@@MedievalWargamer thanks, I'm wanting to start a HYW army and your models are certainly inspiring.

@@aaronlowe60 that sounds great! Have a look arround the channel.. Many HYW showcases for both ealry and later for you to get some ideas and be inspired.. Hope you showcase your armies so we can see them!

Thank you B&Q! Good idea I may start a series on heraldry.. I will have a look regarding what you mentioned... I am pretty sure that most bastard sons had a diagonal line over the coat of arms of their fathers. Interesting to invastigate!

Very interesting ..although i am not an expert but from my latest research i read that Mascles are supposed to represent the links which composed chain armour. Also the blue as i mentioned in the video represents some type of Sea-River.. also it could be the colour of an eastern sky, probably derives the name from the Arabic lazura.... the name being introduced from the East at the time of the Crusades maybe someone from the family was a crusader' ..Thank you for watching my friend!

@@philippekogler Fantastic! What a great family tree. Just subbed to your channel although you are huge..!!hahah

@@MedievalWargamer Thank you and all the best for your phantastic work!!

Yes for sure if you are painting shields for major Nobles ... if you paint for lesser Men at arms they would probably have had colours similar to their lord probably quartered or halved.. but not the exact shield as this would be only for the Noble himself.

@@MedievalWargamer being an American and just getting into medieval war gaming. All the Heraldry is a bit confusing. Thank you for your help.

@@RockinL7BuckingBulls no worries my friend! Please fell free to ask any question while building up your amry.

I just liked your FB maybe we can message?

Any time my friend! I will go to work now but I will respond to your queries this afternoon!

HORSE: Denotes one who is ready to do battle., Lion = bravery, CROSS: The symbol of Christianity Thank you for watching my friend!

Thank my friend glad you liked the miniatures! Well I am sure you are correct and my video is not accurate although I used the ''English heritage'' and ''Medieval chronicle'' pages amongst others for source material.. but I am pretty sure the book is much more accurate! I may have to buy it and have a read. Thank you for watching!
