    Default Medieval court music and popular ballads

    I don't know if this could be of interest, but here is a small collection of music from the 13:th and 14:th century that could perhaps prove useful in some way.

    La Tierche Estampie Royal:

    Very good selection, I'm sure the modders will make something out of this. Just one thing: I find a certain song too "romantic" to be included in a wargame the one about Robin Hood and Maid Marian. I just think it wouldn't fit all that good in such a game, just my opinion.

    Excellent. Thank you very much. I'm not able to listen to these now but I will listen to them later.

    About the 'romantic' song. We are happy to include songs like this. We have music authentic to the period and for the campaign map we have no particular feel that we are after apart from historical authenticity so there is a vast range of emotional sentiments in all the gigabytes of music.

    Saying that however, I've not listened to them yet so I don't know if I will want to include any of them but the criteria for campaign music is just historical accuracy and if it sounds good. Of course the battle music sounds more military though.

    One thing I'd like to add is that I personally think we are trying to create a sense of the full cultural depth of the middle ages and not purely focused on trying to produce a game that is just focused on war. I personally think we are creating something with much more depth than that. So in principal a love song could definitely go in.

    EDIT: looking at the name of this one, I think its already in- Thibaut de Champagne

    Thanks for all the music. I can say that already a number of those are already in the game and that I will be adding some of these that haven't previously been added.
