Thanks Del!  I'll be reading up on your blog.  A quick once over reveals too much info to absorb in one sitting LOL.  Added to my favorites.

In the battle of Agincourt, the narrow field restricted the mobility of french army and the heavy armors slowed the soldiers. the longbow men had enough time to shoot their enemy. but due to thick armors, only a few french were killed by arrow directly. most of who were hurt at exposure areas and then killed by melee weapon or captured. warbow is a great weapon, but this time its glory was based on the bad weather and environment, not as it used to be. its limited penetration against thick armor exposed.
