only if you are playing the first version of MTW, if you play it with the updates or IV, you have to wait till 1205 or thereabouts to get them.

you can get 3 units of longbows in early if you bribe the Welsh, instead of attacking them.

if you are defending, get plenty of archers, upgraded if possible, chivalric sargents, a few swords men and militia sargents and a couple of units of knights.

and welcome to the forum.
