Since Scottish armies cannot field cavalry to match the English knights, they have found other ways to neutralise this threat, such as rows of brave men with long steel pointed sticks. These well trained, although sometimes reckless clansmen are armed with pikes, allowing them to present English knights with a wall of pointy death.
