It is 775 years since the Battle on the Ice was fought on Lake Peipus, between the Republic of Novgorod led by Prince Alexander Nevsky and the Crusader army led by the Livonian branch of the Teutonic Knights. It is notable for having been fought largely on the frozen lake's surface, and this gave the battle its name.

Alexander, intending to fight in a place of his own choosing, retreated in an attempt to draw the often over-confident Crusaders onto the frozen lake. The crusader forces likely numbered around 2600, including 800 Danish and German knights, 100 Teutonic knights, 300 Danes, 400 Germans and 1000 Estonian infantry.The Russians fielded around 5,000 men: Alexander and his brother Andrei's bodyguards, totaling around 1,000, plus 2000 militia of Novgorod, 1400 Finno-Ugrian tribesman and 600 horse archers.

The Teutonic knights and crusaders charged across the lake and reached the enemy, but were held up by the infantry of the Novgorod militia. This caused the momentum of the crusader attack to slow. The battle was fierce, with the allied Russians fighting the Teutonic and crusader troops on the frozen surface of the lake. A little after two hours of close quarters fighting, Alexander ordered the left and right wings of his army (including cavalry) to enter the battle. The cavalry included some Mongol horse archers. The Teutonic and crusader troops by that time were exhausted from the constant struggle on the slippery surface of the frozen lake. The Crusaders started to retreat in disarray deeper onto the ice, and the appearance of the fresh Novgorod cavalry made them retreat in panic.

Destiny.

The Foundation Books by Asimov. I mean, it doesn't have the road warrior vibe but it does take place after the fall of a galactic civilization with some conquering warlords who don't even know how any of their technology works, or even where the human race originates.

Just ignore the Foundation itself and all that stuff about time traveling robots remaking the galaxy to be perfect for humans.

>>52607469
This.

The visual design, area visuals, whats actually there of the lore and music are all god tier or very close to it. I just wish something that wasnt the videogames came out in the Universe so it can be properly explored, especially since going by the teaser for 2 they're doubling down on pleasing the loot whore players instead of expanding.
