Could you post the date of the lists - always aids the banter.

Swiss "from 1477 BCE"

Nik's off the cuff immediate reaction to the armies chosen.

Medieval Burgundian - bunch of English wannabes  ;) An OK choice.

Catalan Company in Anatolia - high octane, hard hitting, possibly a bit risky. Can go big if played well.  ;D

Norman - never dies wondering  8)

Feudal German - solid, competitive and a bit dull  :P

Medieval German City league - see Feudal German.

Sultanate of Rum - a favorite of mine, but I'm trying to force myself away from shooty cavalry for a bit. Not sure it can string enough big wins together over 6 games though. Fun.  :)

Timurid - really not sure  :o

Edward IV English - challenging myself really with 6 games, but I'll let you decide if its a good choice or not   :-X

Eastern Seljuq Turk - have looked at it for a different competition, has some nice options. Interesting.  :D

Georgian - Dave lives up to his reputation for picking an oddball. Should be fun  ;D

Richard III - a horse, a horse! Will King Richard do better than Richard, Duke of Gloucester? A comp within a comp  :P

Anglo-Norman - bit iffy IMO  :-[

Ghaznavid - I nearly went wit this, can surprise people ...  :)

Aragonese Sicilian - knights and Almughavars, nice on paper  :)

Medieval Frisian - see Feudal German  ::)

Late Swiss - in the running for smallest army?  ;D

... and English.

HH
What - no Scots? 

Richard

Too busy peering over the wall looking out for the next invasion!  I think Niall was very close to taking Medieval Scots and I was within a whisker of taking Jimmy IV Scots.   We both went for sensibler options in the end.
