That rings a bell with the St Bartholomew day massacre painting... since it's been three days I'll google a bit for other such medieval stuff...

Edit: Older than that... closer to 14h century than 16th... could be Hundred Years war with the blue and yellow dead guy... but you say it's harder, and there's a wagon... let me google for Tabor stuff...

Seems the crosses on the uniforms point to Templars, but I'm drawing a blank. Full plate armor is definitely late middle ages, and the supply wagon suggests some kind of siege taking place. I wanted to say the siege of Acre, but I don't think that's it.

Could also be a battle between the religious Teutonic knights versus the pagan Lithuanians in the northern crusades.

This one has me stumped. So many battles and conflicts in that era to choose from.

Hundred Years war, a wagon: yes, you're getting warmer.

Edit: the wagon is the key.

It smelled fishy, but you finally found it!

Did I know what in advance?

Edit: The fuck? I've lost another reputation point? Is this post that bad?

You're probably being downvoted because of the Scalia thread mate.

I'll look something up and post.


And I meant if you knew of this battle in advance. I knew of the siege of Orleans but not of this episode in it.

If so, those people didn't get the joke and that means I know Scalia's work better than they do, ha!

As for the battle, well, let's say that being French, I'm more familiar with the Hundred Years War than with the American War of Independence. I chose it because it happened on 12 February 1429 and I expected the answer to be found on 12 February 2016. ^^
