The Armour Archive

Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone could help me with the heraldry of those who took part please? I'm working on a wargame project for next year and whilst i can find a list of the participants, I'm stuck on their coats of arms for the paint job. So, rather than trawl for the couple dozen or so knights on both sides, I thought i'd short-circuit some of the research and ask here.

Most of the arms are listed here

I haven't looked at these guys in a while,... but I know that they have sets for the hundred years war.

Here are my renditions into English blazonry of the Bretons' arms:

• Geoffroy de Beaucorps: Azure, two fasces Or
  
• Jehan III de Beaumanoir: Azure billety argent

• Huet Cathus: Azure mullety argent, a lion passant gardant Or
  
• Evan Charuel: Gules, a fasces argent
  
• Olivier le Fontenay: Unknown
  
• Louis Gouyon: Or, two fasces knotted between nine martlets gules, four in chief, two between the fasces, and three in base, surmounted by a bend azure (as a mark of cadency)

  (I guess he liked to fight at close range)

• Guy de Rochefort: Vairy Or and azure
  
• Jean Rousselot: Argent, three battle-axes palewise sable.
  (The axes are placed 2, 1 in a palewise position)
  
• Huon de Saint-Hugeon: Argent, a cross sable surmounted by a bendlet gules
  
• Jean de Serevil: Or, three cinqfoils sable
  
• Alain and Jean de Tinteniac: Or, three fasces azure
  
• Mauric de Trésiguidy: Or, three pinecones gules

I don't do A&S competitions, but it would be cool if someone did a visual roll of arms for both sides of the historic CotT and entered it into a competition.

It would also be excellent if one day the SCA members that compete in the CotT scenario took on the persona and arms of the actual combatants. Along with the elevated apperance requirements, It would really push the scenario that much closer to the realm of living history, imho.

Great work, Donal!
