Disappearing bowstrings in that last panel.

"Longbow proved to be far more useful than crossbow on the battlefield" how? For one archer you could train thousands of crossbowmen, that's why crossbow pushed bows from battlefields because of massive difference in learning curve

 

[_hng_]

Crossbows were considered to be "unfair" in chivalry so its use was less glorified in Europe, but it is widely used by mercenaries. Ain't no way that longbow was more useful than crossbow. English longbow was another beast and the only big win was in Agincourt.

 

[Psychronia]

I guess a bow might fire faster than a crossbow one on one, but I can't imagine them firing more considering the potential of mass production.

...This isn't gonna nerf his brother's growth as a swordsman, is it?
