Description

Knights fight Enemies. This book provides them. Random tables assist the GM to bring color and entertainment to the battlefield. This book assumes the perspective that player characters are knights of Britain. 32 armies in all.

Arthurian Armies, GPC armies are here, period by period; plus extras (regional special units, round table knights, mercenaries, etc.), and notes for all important battles, including several more armies.

British Armies, six wild and unlawful peoples of Britain; they are backward, and never change much

Continental Armies, the nine Continental Peoples of K&L, plus Aquitaine
The Battles

Each battle in Great Pendragon Campaign is listed with the appropriate army to use. In many cases this is sufficient, but for the more complicated or longer battles, more details are given. For instance, for the Battle of Terrabil (513) three armies are given (Norgales, Malahaut and King Lot). All the great battles (Badon, Roman War, Camlann) get similar treatment.
