Identification help please - Hundred Years War cavalry
I have a number of cavalry figures from the Hundred Years War range and Crecy, Poitiers and possibly Agincourt sub ranges.
As they carry no code numbers and there are a number of figures with similar descriptions, I have not been able to identify any of them with confidence,
If anyone can therfore identify any of the following figures with any authority, I would be very glad to hear from you via comments. The sixth figure down is holding a sword down his side, obscured by the camera angle - sorry!

Hundred Years War Range
Minifigs produced a number of S Range medieval ranges.
The Hunderd Years war range comprised thirteen foot and three mounted figures. There were also sub ranges for the Crecy, Poitiers and Agincourt periods which between them added a further eighteen fooy and twelve mounted figures.
The original catalogues I have only list the main Hundered Years War range so the other listings are taken from Vintage 20mil.
HYW 3s English longbowman
This figure can be distinguished from the Crecy longbowman (HYC 6) as the latter has mail and a moustache.

Hiundred Years War Crecy Period 1300-1350
In addition to the main hHunderd Years War range there were three sub ranges, relating to specific periods during the war and relating to the three great battles of Crecy, Poitiers and Agincourt. I presume this was so you could tailor your armies to narrower periods, better representing changes in weapons and armour, while also being able to draw on suitable figures from the main Hundred Years War range.
The listings for these three sub ranges given here are taken from Vintage 20mil - I don't have any original catalogues with them listed.
The first of these three sub ranges covered crecy and comprised 6 foot and 4 mounted figures.
