Tbh, reading all this makes my head spin a little but I def love how deep some folks get into the nitty gritty of old school tactics - you think there's actually any lost technique out there we'll never fully figure out?
- bjackman 1y agoI think lost techniques are the rule rather than the exception. There are loads of fundamental questions about how premodern combat took place that will probably never be decided. You can get a feel for lots of them by reading this very blog. Stuff like: did opposing infantry lines actually stay in contact for long periods at a time or did they clash for a couple of brief minutes at a time and then mutually retreat a few paces to recover stamina?
