I can describe the key changes and continuities in the composition of Early Modern English armies. Grade 3 I can explain the key changes and continuities in the composition of Early Modern English armies. Grade 6 I can explain and assess changes and continuities in the composition of Early Modern English armies. Grade 9

What were the key components of the Early Modern English armies? Infantry – made up the bulk of the army and were a combination of musketeers and pikemen. Dragoons – a smaller group of mounted infantry armed with muskets. Usually had smaller horses than the cavalry and rode into battle and then dismounted to fight. Cavalry – made up a third of the army. Armed with swords and pistols wearing plate armour breastplates. Artillery – few in number.

How far did the composition of the armies change? Continuity Key components of the army – infantry and cavalry did not change. The infantry remained the largest part of the army. Change New weapons changed the way the armies were used with the decline of the longbow and the rise of the musket. Artillery was a new addition to the battlefield. Cavalry were used to skirmish rather than charge at the enemy until the English Civil War.

How did the role of government influence change in the composition of armies? Leaders increasingly turned to taxation to pay for armies. This helped lead to the increasing use of mercenaries. With the development of a standing army from 1645, this increased the power of Kings and Parliaments and ensured they were better trained and paid.

Why did tactics change? Weapons drove changes in tactics. There was now the need for musketeers and pikemen to act together as both were vulnerable for a number of reasons – Cavalry could easily ride down musketeers. Pikemen could stop a cavalry charge. Pikemen could be slaughtered by musket fire.

How did tactics change? The typical deployment of troops in the early modern period combined all types of soldier. Cavalry were placed on the flanks with musketeers in lines to fire in turns but when needed pikemen formed squares around the musketeers under attack. This had a number of advantages such as allowing for continuous musket fire in groups and pikemen in squares proved to be a strong defensive line.
