Topic	300 longbowmen vs 300 musketeers in open ground
Kolibri X 10/31/19 12:59:22 PM #15:	Its a myth that bows and arrows outraged muskets. This probably started because conscripts were poorly trained and bad shots. There really isn't any historical accounts were musketeers could not return fire because they were not in range. But in fact, there are accounts where arrows could not hit/reach musketeers. Also, longbows could not be used on horseback, so there's also that. --- Platinum GameFAQs Member <cite>Kolibri X posted [p:929476452] in 300 longbo...
