The army of the Duchy of Martilles consisted of a small ducal guard and the strategic retainer of mercenary captains from [[Yonderre]], who were expected to mobilized a regiment of [[Volonderres]] each if the need for warfare arose. The ducal guard's composition shifted throughout the life of the duchy but most commonly included a crop of professional artillerists, a horse-mounted Life Guard, and at least one regiment of foot. | The army of the Duchy of Martilles consisted of a small ducal guard and the strategic retainer of mercenary captains from [[Yonderre]], who were expected to mobilized a regiment of [[Volonderres]] each if the need for warfare arose. The ducal guard's composition shifted throughout the life of the duchy but most commonly included a crop of professional artillerists, a horse-mounted Life Guard, and at least one regiment of foot. The Ducal Guard was led by a Sergent-Captain. They were well provisioned and typically had modern weapons, armor, and tactics for the time as the mercenary captains served the Sergent-Captain as his advisors in this regard. | ||
