In the Middle Ages, the Crusaders used three principal methods of fighting. The first and most prominent was the charge by horse-borne knights, whether individually or in formation. As common was the direct advance by foot-soldiers bearing bladed weapons or blunt weapons (such as clubs). Increasingly common as years passed was the use of bowed weapons, with the European crossbow coming to be especially feared by their Arabic opponents in the Middle East.

What did constantinople have to do with the crusades?
Constantinople played a crucial role in the Crusades as a key waypoint and a source of support for the Crusaders. Initially, the Byzantine Empire sought help from Western Europe to fend off Muslim advances, leading to the First Crusade in 1096. As Crusaders traveled through the city, it became a center for logistics and resources, although tensions often arose between the Byzantines and the Crusaders. Ultimately, the city was also a target during the Fourth Crusade in 1204, when Crusaders diverted from their original mission and captured Constantinople itself.
