Colleoni is probably best known today for the statute by Verroccio which stands in Venice. His contemporary fame was earned through a brilliant military career which demonstrated his tactical genius in the use of artillery.

Pallas Armata (literally Armed Athena, and also the title of a 1639 treatise on rapier fencing) was a series of reprints of important period memoirs and historical works published specifically for members of wargaming societies during the 1990s. It was intended to make rare and valuable works widely available at reasonable cost. The series was published by Gareth Simon, himself a wargamer, of Tonbridge in Kent.
