Battle of Hard



The Battle of Hard was the first large-scale battle in the Swabian War, waged between the Imperialists under the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I and the Swiss Confederates. The battle was fought on February 20, 1499, on a cold and foggy day, between 10,000 Imperial troops, mostly from the Swabian Circles, and a smaller number of Swiss troops, often called Reisläufer.
