I wish you'd stop giving up on things at the drop of a hat.

Pretty nice finally finding out what the square thingie at the end of a crossbow is for.

This here is a bit incorrect.

Black prince was quite a bro with his fellow English.

He just really hated the French.

A bit.

It drums up the English as an Underdog a bit too much.

The English Army was fantastically efficient. But it also drums up the idea that the English longbowmen were somewhat downtrodden.

English longbowmen were paid very fairly and had strict laws.

A famous recount is the King demanding "Every Bowman in England must loose two arrows for the king"

So one guy showed up, Fired exactly two arrows and then told the King to fuck off and pay him.

England was always a fun contrast to Continental Europe. They praised Warrior Kings and Chivalry through the lens of Anglo-Saxons as much as they pretend they don't.

Casualty rates aren't right, 30,000 was the total number of enemies. It's very unlikely they killed all of them. While there's no realiable number, it can be assumed that 10,000-20,000 common soldiers died or were wounded.
