It proved to Europe that armoured knights were not invincible. Up until this point armoured knights on horseback were seen to be the best soldiers in an army and undefeatable by infantry. English victories such as Crecy and Poitiers proved that common men (archers) could defeat mounted knights with the correct planning.

However, as it saw the rise of the English archer it also saw the demise as the French learnt how to defeat the weapon by charging quickly and by not engaging in open warfare.

The Hundred Years War also involved many different directions for warfare. It involved sieges, open battle and chevauee (double check) where the English pillaged the French lands of Brittany.
