Recorded live at the 2026 International Medieval Congress in Leeds, Kelly DeVries and Michael Livingston field audience questions on whether Agincourt was truly decisive, which medieval battles best illustrate tactical principles for teaching, and who deserves the title of most effective general of the period. Two proper medievalist military historians sparring over contested rankings — DeVries's expertise on siege warfare and Livingston's work on battlefield archaeology give the answers real weight. The live format keeps the energy up without sacrificing substance.
