medieval sieges, were they long and drawn out? im reading Cassells history of warfare, and they make it seem that the main weapon of sieges at that time(i guess early period, not sure) was starvation.
and how could knights get their horses to charge into a wall of spears?did they put blinders on them or what? it would seem that a horse wouldnt be too eager to kill itself. also, would knights have done that? i mean horses are expensive...
was light cavalry bunched with the infantry, or did they support the knights?
