Experimental archaeology done in style! When the men-at-arms are all pretty well armoured, the longbow effective range is reduced to 20m and less. That dinged up suit of armour would be really sweet for a 'veteran' reënactor: YouTube link |

You'd want leg armour for the front ranks. They'd then act as shields for the following ranks' legs. Interesting how the brigandines protected against the war arrows so effectively. Thinking ahead – back to solid plate against firearms. |
