Do any of these apply to Old English?

also what are the highlanders meant to represent?

you could add Hobelars, Irish light calvary and calvary archers.

Also helps the recurves of the Turks and Mongols were designed for mounted use. Important to note though, even those fantastic bows could not outrange infantry bows. The true advantage of Turkish and Mongol Horse archers lay in their absolutely amazing mobility and years of training, not in any mythical property of the weapons as some try to claim.

true, true.

@Catto
Tell that to the Turks and Mongols

It was also not as accurate, since y'know, riding a horse tends to mess with your aim.

@Speedyblupi: While you are (mostly) correct, there have been recorded incidences of mounted Longbowmen being utilised whilst still mounted during the 100 Years War period. It was certainly not common, but it was done. It was generally done when speed and surprise were a primary requirement, such as in one case an assault upon a Ford across a river.

So yes, most of the time the Mounted Longbowmen were more akin to later Dragoons, mounted infantry who used their mounts for tactical and strategic mobility and flexibility upon the battlefield but fought dismounted. However, there are cases where they did in fact fight mounted, though the longbow will never be as effective used mounted as you simply do not have the bracing to draw the bow to full draw, so you *will* sacrifice range and rate of fire in comparison to dismounted use.

@Luna Assassin
The longbow was not historically used from horseback. Even if it is technically possible to do so, it doesn't mean it was practical.
That wikipedia page does not say the longbow was used from horseback, it says longbowmen would be used alongside mounted troops.
