The Battle of Crecy, 1346 was among the first major engagements of The Hundred Years War. The Forces of Edward III (England) invade France. King Philip IV (France) and his allies rush towards Crecy (south of Calais). Edwards forces are aligned in battle formations across the field, holding the high ground (a hill located to the Northwest).

Can you defeat the French forces and move to your next victory?

Nice theme, goes well with your history thread ;)

It was a very good battle! And you certainly know how to place trees effectively!

Glad you liked it Chris. Authentic landmarks - based on maps of the period are difficult to duplicate with the Map Editor. I so nervous that it wouldn't work.

Having a similar issue with another work "The Battle of Pontiers"....can't seem to figure THAT one out! Trudging on.........
