Medieval 2 Total War - Machiavello mod | Model for an Italian Condottiere for the Bracceschi. The Bracceschi were commanders associated with Braccio da Montone and his military school, and many of them, like the Piccinino family, fought over all major conflucts in XV century Italy. A “condottiere” acts as general and military commander of a large unit; he is shown with the command baton with which this figure is shown with. The models are based on Paolo Uccello’s painting of the Battle of San Romano, with the characteristic large hats and plumes of the men-at-arms, and a trumpeteer. They are armed with plate armour in Milanese style, as other professional mercenaries of XVth-century Italy.
