Information: In the Early Middle Ages, the armoured knight ruled the battlefield. They were typically mounted on horseback and trained in the use of weapons such as the sword, lance, and battle axe. By the 15th century a fully armed knight was virtually encased in armour. Due to the skill of the late medieval armourer, he was not as restricted as he might appear as the armour joints allowed for a large amount of movement.
