Off topic. Although (again as best I recall -- how many
years it's been!) Hal chose the battlefield well and
gained advantage from that, it was good military tactics
which might or might not (we'll never know) have been
enough considering the overwhelming odds. But
military tactics had existed for ages before. The definitive
difference (according to my teachers anyhow) was in
fact the longbow. He was outnumbered 20 to 1 after
all, a basis for arrogance on the part of the French.
I'd probably have felt pretty secure myself (despite
that I'm essentially a wimp by nature).
