Introduction

 

This covers the Frankish armies in the Outremer, after the 3rd Crusade and up to the Golan campiagn of 1260. After this point, no field armies were used.

 

The main points of difference with the eralier Kingdom of Jerusalem list are:

  • the increasing reliance on the military orders to provide contingents in field armies;
  • that most major battles in this period depended on the presence of contingents from overseas;
  • the increasing use of missile weapons and of course;
  • greater use of armour and caparisons for the knights.
