Tower shields being held by infantry never existed past roman times.
Longbows weren’t a precision weapon. The danger was a unit of longbowmen being able to absolutely decimate a unit of infantry or knights well before they could get into range to do their job, not of a lone sniper offing some nobleman somewhere.

I know. That’s not really what I was talking about, just your assumption.
…which is why I said you don’t know how I think of it.
I have seen some vids lately claiming otherwise.
But the thing is that Hussite War Wagons were actually static. they basically worked as a mobile fortified position from which you could safely shoot and poke enemy soldiers. Mostly with agricultural tools.
They also come from early 15th century.

This is Siege Tank of the 15th century.
AKA Die Papal aristocratic scum. I am one-eyed badass and I shall never lose a battle in my entire life.

Still on a train, so I will have to check later. Unless I forget, which is likely to happen.
That costed France the first parts of the Hundred Years War. Then we let a peasant girl fix everything before abandoning her.
God it reminds me of Charmed Claiming that the French Kings fell as Karma for Joan of Arc. Obviously it never heard of the Templars. Or it’s hatred for anything tangantially related to the Protoss was so strong that it ignored them. Good laugh as always
Reminds me of them Druon books I have at home. Gotta read them again, they’s great.
Again, I meant different thing. Peasant rebellions.
She was a good rallying symbol, I will give her that.
The Accursed Kings. GoT got nothing on it

The peasantry made up the vast majority of a nation’s armed forces regardless. The specific effectiveness of the longbow didn’t make that exceptionally more problematic for nobles.
Don’t much remember the titles even in my language, don’t think I ever heard any in English. But some of them and Graham Shelby’s books were the good stuff. And yeah, GoT is nothing compared.
Nothing beats reality. It gets away with things that make no sense at all. Like North Korea, countries keeping invading Vietnam, Afghanistan or Finland, Mongol fleet being sunk twice or Charmed.
Not to mention that battle where Austrians attacked themselves.

And Australians losing a war against giant birds. Koprulu got nothing on Australia
Fun fact : A Song of Ice and Fire draws heavy inspiration from Druon’s books. G.R.R Martin himself admits it, he’s such a fan that he oversaw the recent English translation of the Novels.

I’ve already done a run building Marines only, no Nova (she needed a break). Mass Marines is also the most optimal build for End Game.

I am pretty sure you would be able to win this even with regular MP Marines.
Really? I found mass smartlib to be optimal. Unless you count cheesing it with mass BC jump into the ship yard and Yamato the Xanthos so it comes out and dies to nova in a 1v1.
Marines clear the mission the fastest, in about 13 minutes.
Well, there’s my time to beat I guess
Well, I beat it in 12:51 total mission time with an honestly rather sloppy run with BC cheesing the objective. How much faster do I have to get it?
