Title: Shields/Bucklers for Landsknecht swordsmen
Post by: Aerendar Valandil on October 26, 2019, 08:33:50 PM

Hi all,

I want to use a few old Empire swordsmen as a fantasy/historical team of Landsknecht skirmishers for skirmish gaming. What would be credible buckler/small shields for the period?

Thanks in advance Maarten.

Google: "Tartsche" or take a look in "Hammaborg" Al known german "Fechtbücher" in there . "Triumphzug Kaiser Maximillian Fechter" two pictures shows Tartschen and Buckler.
