2023 Theme - French vs. English!
This Year’s Scenario - Battle of Agincourt, 1415 A.D.!
The year is 1415 AD, 25th of October. Negotiations between King Henry V of England and King Charles VI of France have broken down – forces are gathering.
In the narrow strip of land between the woods of Tramecourt and the village of Azincourt in northern France, the English and French armies prepare for battle. As the morning fog lifts in the wet and muddy recently plowed fields, English longbowmen scurry to form defensive positions while French men-at-arms and elite cavalry assemble in main battlelines. Battle banners are on full display. Blinding reflections of polished armor glitters the field. Silence ensues, and then drums begin to beat. Battle is imminent.
Will you heed the summons of the French King Charles VI to defend the lands of France in their most desperate time of need? Or, will you offer your allegiance in solidarity and comradeship as the ‘band of brothers,’ to King Henry V and the English invaders? Honor and glory are at stake! It is time to pick a side. But be reminded, only one victor will rule the day so choose wisely!
The history so presented is a play on actual accounts of the events and the biographies
of the characters involved during this time period.
