Re: Thank you and question
I should have been more specific. Xbows and AP bows beat guns. Sure they won't stop a charge of men-at-arms dead cold but I highly doubt any early gun unit could. AND by the time the men-at-arms, condottieres, ... are upon your lines I'm sure the Xbows and AP bows will have made a lot more casualties.Originally Posted by Shinseikhaan
Caveat- bows are excellent for a ranged duel; however, they are nearly useless if the enemy is heavy oriented. Whether its men-at-arms, condottiere, or heavy german merc infantry, bows will have trouble doing much damage against the heavier, early troops of the period.
Someone has to watch over the wheat.We've made our walls sufficiently thick that we don't even hear the wet thuds of them bashing their brains against the outer wall and falling as lifeless corpses into our bottomless moat.
