People really underestimate the moving speed. Getting to melee asap is super important. Then there is morale: those very expensive knights route and get murdered.

Couldn't agree more! And during the movement, a lot can be said about troops that aren't dealing any damage YET, but are getting their heads knocked off with crossbow bolts haha! I think that was even one major advantage of ranged attacks in the middle ages, so good insight! And thank you for the feedback and comment!
