	Lake Peipus 1242: Battle of the ice (Campaign)
		The battle of Lake Peipus is obscure, poorly known in the west (but of epic importance in Russia).
		The battle of Lake Peipus ended the Eastern Crusader's aspirations of expanding the anti-pagan crusades to a larger crusade against Russia and the Eastern Orthodox.
		The number of knights at the battle must have been very small, since the total number of Sword Brothers in 1230 was about 120, 49 had been killed at Saule in 1236, others must have been in garrisons and the Teutonic Knights had not yet exerted their control over Livonia.

	Teutonic Knights - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Their next aim was to convert Orthodox Russia to Roman Catholicism, but after the knights suffered a disastrous defeat in the Battle on Lake Peipus (1242) at the hands of Prince Alexander Nevsky of Novgorod, the idea had to be dropped.
		In 1410 at the Battle of Grunwald (also known as the Battle of Tannenberg), a united Polish-Lithuanian army, led by Władysław II Jagiełło and Vytautas, decisively defeated the order in the Polish-Lithuanian-Teutonic War.
		Some Teutonic Knights were sent to battle the rebels, but were almost invariably defeated by the Bohemian infantry.

		Lake Peipus was still frozen over, but with an uneven surface.
		He formed his army, not on the lake itself but on the shore, where he could face the attacking enemy as it stumbled to cross the ice.
		The numerous Russian archers were stationed in the center of the northern edge of the army, with the horse archers on the right flank to counter the Teutonic Order, which rode in the center of the Crusader army.

	The Battle of Lake Peipus -1242 AD (DBA Battle Scenario)
		The Crusader knights charged across the lake on the ice towards Nevsky's positions on the eastern shore at a place known as "Raven's Rock," with the Danes on the left, the Teutonic Knights in the center, and the Livonian feudal knight contingent on the right, followed at a great distance by the Estonian foot.
		This battle was significant in that it was the last major attempt by the Germans to break into Russia proper for several centuries, and the Russians used this aggression as a popular myth to support their propaganda campaigns against German expansionism in the 20th century.
		Admittedly, the Crusaders’ camp would not have been on the frozen lake, but for dramatic effect (and for play-balance!), a camp, ideally consisting of the Bishop and his clerics in a tent with musicians, should be placed on the Crusader baseline.

		The problem is that the topic of Lake Peipus centers around a very confusing era of interlaced politics, religion, sociology, etc..
		Unless the reader is already familiar with the scope of 12th century affairs, the book would almost need to be twice its size to properly explain the background to the campaign leading up to the battle.

		The one battle in Eastern Europe that every American medievalist knows is this, the Battle on the Ice, thanks to Eisenstein's brilliant 1938 propaganda film, Alexander Nevsky.
		Quite properly, he concludes that the battle's reputation is greater than its significance.
		The importance of the confrontation of the two relatively small armies at the eastern bank of Lake Peipus was strictly local.

	Teutonic Order -- DBA 151
		The crucial battle of Lake Peipus in 1242 was between the Teutonic Order and Russians, and the Post-Mongol Russian list doesn't begin until 1246 AD.
		I don't know of any specific battles, so this must be regarded as speculation, but the Early Medieval Scandinavian army (#131a) is a reasonable foe given the conflicting goals in the Baltic.
		Although they sometimes stayed and fought, many times their contribution to a battle for the Teutonic Order was marked by the rapidly disappearing sound of their fleeing feet at a crucial moment.
