Also at the Battle of Agincourt. The English had about 5000 longbows, each with say... 20 arrows, most bodkin. The French took, in total, about 1600 casualties. Say half of those were to arrows, as most of the fighting was hand to hand. So, 5000*20 is 100000 arrows fired. 100000 divided by 800 French deaths is 125 arrows fired for every dead Frenchman. Amazing, esp. because most were shot through the helmet gap too, and not through the armour. And remember, 800 dying to arrows is a conservative estimate skewed in your favor, kick. It could be much lower, as the majority died in the melee against the archers and men-at-arms. Here, again, in the melee we see what? Archers using the weight of numbers to pin French knights and stab them with knives repeatedly or using inpact weapons like mallets to negate their armour.
