Sharp Johnny: Warfare in the time of the Free Companies, 1360-1392AD (Campaign Theme)
Sponsor: Washington Grand Company (www.wgc.com)
Event Scale: 15mm
Rules Used: TRIUMPH! Fast play ancient and medieval battles
Maximum Players: 8
Description: Command an army using the TRIUMPH! Fast play ancient during the time of the free companies.
The Peace of Bretigny in 1360 didn't end the Hundred Year's War between England and France, but it did pause it. Large numbers of English and other soldiers became mercenaries and fought in the confused wars of the next 30 years. Some of these free companies were the Company of the Star, the Company of St. George, the Little Hat Company, and the White Company led by Albert Sterz and John Hawkwood, known as "Giovanni Acuto" or "Sharp Johnny" in Italy.
Now is the time when soldiers can rise by the might of their own arm and gain everlasting glory, wealth, and fame. Or betray your employers and violate your contracts to become notorious and feared. On the field of battle all will be wagered, won, and lost.
8 loaner armies available for players with tickets. Bring your own army and you don't need a ticket - register in advance on http://forum.wgcwar.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=127

Note that there are two categories of events at Historicon -- PEL Events (for which tickets are usually issued and required) and Tournaments (for which tickets are not issued or required). And some of our events fall into one category, some into the other, and some (like the walkups) have tickets but they aren't required.

This is the "Tickets exist" category.

Just a heads up that the Thursday 7PM – 10PM Pelennor Field – Grand TRIUMPH! Scenario from the War of the Rings will not be happening as originally planned. Instead we will have 2 Big table events:

1) Big Al vs Classical Indians (6 players)
2) Battle of Chalons Scenario (8 players)
