Just one of the guys.
@Griffin_2099:
A) Why doesn't he get back on his horse?
B) the Sword around isn't that hard. The weight is fairly easy to handle.
C) Armor is made to be used. A fit guy shouldn't have any issues getting from one end of a field to another and be barely winded.
A) the horse was killed by the scottsman in my scenario, did you think he just hopped off his horse or he just pulled him off it? No he'd have to spear it wound or kill it in some kind of way to do that, and all of these warriors are capable of knocking a knight of his horse seeing as that historically frontlines men have knocked down knights on horseback before, more times than not the horse will be wounded or dead because of this. Yes the horse is armored too, but isnt aswell protected as the knight, there is going to be a vunerable spot somewhere that will be hit.
B) Yes for a while the wait is easy to handle, tell me have you ever done yoga? i have and a yoga routine is simply streching and holding poses, simply? not quite Holding a yoga pose can look as simple as holding your arms straight out for 5 minutes, would be killer on your muscles, just holding your arms up feels like weights have been bonded to your hands. take boxers for example, have you ever boxed before? just a minute into a fight swinging your fists around can be very tiresome, you become very winded, now lets take an average knight, who yes has had training in the suit, but a boxer after round one is winded and he trains vigorously, and lets suit him from head to to in his armor and add in his sword which some knights had rather large swords, swinging that around fight after fight, hes chainmilled, plated, and has restrictions on his movement, yes he is made to move in it, but movement isnt as great as any other competitor here.
Now lets take everything a just said into consideration.
