Sharp Johnny: Warfare in the time of the Free Companies, 1360-1392AD (Campaign Theme)
Sponsor: Washington Grand Company (www.wgc.com)
Event Scale: 15mm
Rules Used: TRIUMPH! Fast play ancient and medieval battles
Maximum Players: 8
Description: Command an army using the TRIUMPH! Fast play ancient during the time of the free companies.
The Peace of Bretigny in 1360 didn't end the Hundred Year's War between England and France, but it did pause it. Large numbers of English and other soldiers became mercenaries and fought in the confused wars of the next 30 years. Some of these free companies were the Company of the Star, the Company of St. George, the Little Hat Company, and the White Company led by Albert Sterz and John Hawkwood, known as "Giovanni Acuto" or "Sharp Johnny" in Italy.
Now is the time when soldiers can rise by the might of their own arm and gain everlasting glory, wealth, and fame. Or betray your employers and violate your contracts to become notorious and feared. On the field of battle all will be wagered, won, and lost.
8 loaner armies available for players with tickets. Bring your own army and you don't need a ticket – register in advance on forum.wgcwar.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=127

My table was next to yours at Cold Wars and I really wanted to go play with you guys! I'll try to make it happen at Historicon!

Please do join in…

All our events are intended to be newbie friendly including the tournaments.

I've watched the "Triumph!" games at past HMGS conventions. I highly recommend them to all players, young and old, veteran and novice.

If the "Triumph!" Team is looking for new lands to conquer, you should consider taking a ride up I-95 in June to NJCON. I'm sure they would love to have you.

For details, please go to njcon.org

Hope to see you there.
