Didn’t they run out sooner or later? In reality, each archer carried only a limited number of arrows, and a quiver could be emptied quickly. So, what happened once they were out? How did they get more arrows? In this video, we’ll explore how English longbowmen were resupplied during the Hundred Years’ War—and how they ensured they never ran out of ammunition in the middle of battle.
