Default Re: Crossbows vs. Longbows

I must say the most powerfull bow in history is not the english (wales in fact) longbow, but the indian one. It was much less precise however, as it was used by an archer lying on his back.

As a french, I must say our noble knights ultimately understood that they needed not to expose themselves to ennemy fire too much, and finaly got rid of the many english tourists that weren't willing to go back to their ill-climated homeland, even after the legal expiration of their visas.
