	Battle of Crécy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Crécy was a battle in which a much smaller English army of approximately 12,000 men, commanded by Edward III of England and heavily outnumbered by Philip VI of France's force of between 30,000 and 40,000, was victorious as a result of superior weaponry and tactics.
		As in later battles, where the longbowmen could not penetrate the knights' much-improved armor, they found flank areas of their horses which were unprotected, and killed or disabled the horses, leaving the Knights floundering helplessly on foot.
		The battle is seen by many historians as the beginning of the end of chivalry; because during the course of the battle, many of the prisoners and wounded were killed.

	Battle of Formigny - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Battle of Formigny (April 15, 1450) was a clash of the Hundred Years' War.

	Siol nan Gaidheal - The Day the Scots saved France
		The engagement in question was the Battle of Bauge, fought on the day before Easter Sunday, 1421, and was considered by many at the time to be the turning point in the war, being the first occasion a "French" army inflicted a defeat upon the English in the field during the course of the war.
		It meant the destruction of their ability to be anything other than a garrison, and the prevention of an English army penetrating south of the Loire and encircling the strategically vital cities of Orleans and Tours, thus giving the French vital time in which to recover and face the next onslaught.
		The Scots rallied hastily and battle was joined at a bridge which the Duke of Clarence, with banner unfurled for battle, sought to cross.
