Coronelías

The Coronelías are the infantry Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba shaped in the Italian wars: several companies held together as one body under a colonel where a captain had commanded before, with pike, sword and arquebus each given their own place in the line rather than thrown in together. The tercio is not yet named; that waits on an ordinance out of Genoa. But this is the formation it will be named for, and the men who learn their trade here are the ones who will fill it.
