Review of the Landsknechts

Europe, early 16th century
When there was war - and when there was no war - it was quite easy to enlist as a lansquenet. Weapons had to be brought along, knowledge of the craft of war was assumed and was not so necessary for the simple pikeman. No one asked where from or where to. It went without saying that one fought only for pay and booty. Thus, of course, all kinds of brutal riff-raff fell under the banner, who knew nothing but war and did not take the oath of allegiance to the Articles of Association too seriously.

Our series shows such a muster. After registration in the muster roll, the colourful journeymen stride to the muster parade through a yoke of two halberds and a spit. The Musterherr checks whether all are in good health.
