Join me on an interview with Arne Koets, historical dressage and mounted combat instructor. We discuss the intricacies of jousting and mounted combat as well as late medieval cavalry tactics. His experience leading fully-armored men-at-arms in the German countryside during the Feldlager wargame provides a unique perspective on the logistics required to equip and maneuver a 15th century calvary unit. We also learn a little about Arne's background as well as the events he hosts such as the Rossfechten Symposium where this interview was conducted.
