Against the Baron
"Even better if we had crossbows, as they are far easier to learn -- but if there are enough bows, and arrows for them, a mass volley could hide the fact that only a few actually shoot well.
"Another thing we might do is to place traps in the road -- I can make pits very quickly, but I cannot do so at a great distance, more is the pity. Still, I can keep control of a portion of the earth I move for a pit to hold it as a false cover, for a horse or man to fall through -- though only for as long as I remain awake, so I cannot do this earlier than the day the attack is expected."
