Did this technique work?
Whenever I look at medieval warfare I’m impressed by the ingenuity and the sheer amount of manual labour to get things done.
Imagine pushing a giant armoured cart while lugging a backpack full of rocks while getting pelted with arrows and whatever else the defenders decide to throw at you. Sheesh.
And then imagine your coworker looking up at you and saying, "Mondays, am I right?"
"Someone's got a case of the Mondays! How about you turn that frown upside down mister."
