I like it when I read that people think units move too fast. Did you know that the average knight could walk efficiently, crawl, and run very fast in a full suit of armor? ever see Excalibur. if you wear the stuff alot, you tend to grow into it. much like a football player, but more massive. The word 'hunk'(of man flesh.....) comes from this period. No he wasn't as limber as an archer but he'd kill 10-50 archers before one got him. Read about the Knights of St. John in their defence of Rhodes...........'The Shield and the Sword'. British volume. Read it the first time when I was twelve.
