Give me your Royal/Noble Dream Team!
General Rules:
1) 10 people, your starting 5 and your bench.
2) They can be monarchs, consorts, relatives of the royal family, nobles, royal favorites, and/or common-born people who rose to positions of power. For example, I’m including William Marshall.
3) Of course, we’re on a UK monarchs sub, but feel free to include figures from other countries if you like.
4) You decide your criteria. If you love William the Conqueror even though/because he’s a bloodthirsty MFer, put him on your list.
4) I’m not a stickler for rules here, so feel free to play loose with rules 1-4.
Starting 5 (I have a heavy Plantagenet bias):
Eleanor of Aquitaine (my GOAT/MJ/Whitney Houston, the only person to be Queen of England and France unless you count Margaret of Anjou)
Edward III
Empress Matilda
William Marshall
Edmund Crouchback
Bench:
Edward The Black Prince
John of Gaunt
Philippa of Hainaut
Isabella of France
Henry of Grosmont, Duke of Lancaster
HM to Lady Margaret Beaufort
