	myArmoury.com - Zwiehander: effective vs cavalry?
		Pavia was a lovely mess indeed, it's so confusing that several of the later attempts of reconstructing the battle are almost worhless, Oman realy dropped the ball in his description of Pavia thogu it is a very hard batttle to work with.
		And agreed, the later 16th Century authors aren't exactly promoting cavalry charges as the be-all and end-all of a battle (though Walhausen certainly seems to have thought they still had merit as late as 1616, and I was under the impression that Sir Roger Williams had some notion of the effectiveness of "Launtiers" against Foote).
		Tournhout especially in that it was almost entirely a Cavalry force on the Ango-Dutch side which defeated a combined arms Spanish army on the march (and indeed, it was primarily Pistolier Cavalry that did this trick, as the Spaniards were the only ones in the field to have Lances that day).

	A History Of The So-Called Jansenist Church Of Holland by Rev. J.M. Neale
		The battle of Heiligerlee declared for the insurgents; [111] that of Jemminghem more than compensated to the Royalists; and for two or three years Alva enjoyed an almost uninterrupted triumph.
		The victory of Mookerheyde again gave courage to the Royalists; but their repulse from Leyden rendered Philip willing to enter into negotiations.
		These proved fruitless; and the death of Requesens and the pacification of Ghent, which bound the revolted provinces more closely to each other, rendered more vigorous measures needful.

		There was a continuing discussion by both theorists and soldiers from the 1550's through even in to the middle-years of the 17th Century as to which manner of arming (pistols or lances) was superior.
		Mookerheyde convinced many that Lancers would generally defeat Pistoliers.
