Perhaps others have voiced support in email for your cause, but in any event I did want to say that I have also read a bunch of military history and all of what you say "rings true"to me. The details are all much fuzzier in my head than they seem to be in yours (but perhaps you used references and don't know all that stuff off the top of your head, either), but Joerg is clearly writing as an archery-partisan, who has perhaps never read "real" (I use that word advisedly) sources.
Please keep up the good posting. You do a lot to make the glorantha-list a good read.
