In my series, you could find some straight going and "classical" modules, with limited sieze battles. That mainly the one related to Hundred Years War : Vae Victis n°26, Epées de France (Swords of France) and Epées et Couronne (Swords and Crown).
Swiss battles (Sword and Helberds) of VV 81 are of this side but a little bit more complex due to Swiss special rules
You can also find big or very big battles, bigger maps and lot of counters. That's the case of Las Navas de Tolosa (VV), of Bouvines battles of VV 46, of two battles from Epées Royales (Mons en Pévèle et Cassel) and of our last modules Swords and Crusades (Dorylaeum and Ascalon)
At the end there also small battles : Lake Peïpus and Muret from VV 46, two battles of Epées Royales (Brémule and Taillebourg) and the xetra battles of VV Hors série (Anthon and Otterburn).
You can find some replay on this Consiworld folder either: http://talk.consimworld.com/WebX?13@757.RDKsenlds3E.47677110...
