Antoine de Chabannes

Right, another day goes by, and I may have another job opportunity. Still as a tutor, but I think mostly for teaching French in businesses. It could be interesting on my CV. Anyway, back to the minis, and today, you'll have one unit of heavy infantry, under the leader of Antoine de Chabannes, count of Dammartin (1408- 1488)

He was at his first battle at the age of 15 (battle of Cravant), then joined Joan of Arc. Afterwards, he became one of the Ecorcheurs, though he was amongst King Charles VIII's friends. One interesting fact is he despised his son Dauphin Louis, and the feeling was mutual. After Louis became King of France, Antoine was exiled for a time in Rhodes before coming back. He became Grand Maitre de France in 1467.

Les jours passent et j'ai la possibilite de commencer un nouveau job, toujours en tant que tuteur, mais en entreprise cette fois. Ca pourrait etre utile sur mon CV. Si j'en reviens aux figs, c'est pour vous montrer une unite d'infanterie sous les ordres d'Antoine de Chabannes, comte de Dammartin (1408-1488),

Participant a sa premiere bataille a 15 ans ( Cravant), il rejoignit les compagnons de Jeanne d'Arc, avant de devenir un des chefs des Ecorcheurs. Proche du roi Charles VIII, il destestait son fils le dauphin Louis, qui le lui rendait bien. Ce dernier une fois roi l'exila a Rhodes pour un temps. Il finit Grand maitre de France en 1467.
