The Battle of Arsuf was a battle that occured roughly halfway between Acre and Jerusalem, near the coast of the Mediterranean during the Third Crusade. The Crusaders, along with the Knights Templar and the Knights Hospitaller and lead by RIchard the Lionheart, faced the Muslims under Saladin. The Battle was a triumph for the Crusading forces. Numbers on each side were roughly equal (20,000) although casualties weren't: approximately 700 Crusaders dead for approximately 7,000 Muslims dead, including 32 of their Emirs.
