The Plot of Medieval Warfare Magazine 20170506 VolVII Iss2: In this issue of Medieval Warfare Magazine, we explore the evolution of technology during the Middle Ages and its impact on the conduct of warfare. From the development of new weaponry to the use of siege engines, we delve into the innovations that changed the course of history. We examine how these advancements influenced the outcome of battles and sieges, and how they shaped the tactics and strategies employed by armies on both sides. One of the most significant technological advancements during this period was the development of gunpowder and firearms. The introduction of cannons and handguns revolutionized warfare, allowing armies to break through fortifications and destroy enemy formations with greater ease. This led to the creation of more mobile and flexible forces, as well as the decline of traditional siege warfare. Another important area of technological progress was in the field of armor. As armor became lighter and more maneuverable, knights were able to move more quickly and easily on the battlefield, giving them a distinct advantage over their opponents. Additionally, the use of plate armor allowed for greater protection against projectiles and blades, further increasing the effectiveness of mounted warriors. The magazine also explores the role of siege engines in medieval warfare. These massive machines, such as catapults and trebuchets, were used to breach fortifications and destroy enemy strongholds.
