Organiser: Cid
List checker: Tommy Worden (List due by Jan 3rd 17:00 to Wordentommy18@gmail.com )
Umpire: Nik Gaukroger
* 2026 Lists and 2026 amendments will be used *
** Change to Excluded Armies - Later Crusader (ALL CRUSADES COVERED BY THIS LIST ARE EXCLUDED) + Outremer States. The previous exclusions didn't achieve our aim to reduce European type knight heavy armies. ***


Theme is armies outside Europe. Rather than list all included armies, it is easier to list those which are excluded.

Excluded Armies
Note: some armies that did fight, or were based outside Europe are being excluded where they are deemed to have too much of a "European Feel"; e.g. Imperial Roman.
No ally from excluded lists can be taken.
Contingents, allied or otherwise, cannot be used if they are of a nation that is an excluded list; e.g. the Ottoman Turkish cannot use the Serbian contingent.
No "sub-lists" where the option is to be in Europe can be taken; e.g. Later Carthaginian in Italy or Spain cannot be taken, but in Africa can be.
