Kneeling in formations, hot or not? Historical friends say it's a no no and that it should be a proper arrest like this https://imgur.com/a/0K1CiLh #medieval #rts #UE4pic.twitter.com/i4UZvt8cI6

Interesting, thanks for responding! The game is medieval Europe oriented (focusing on XIV century now). The friend who I've been discussing it with suggested that the only mention of late medieval pikemen kneeling in battle is to allow the archers behind them to shoot. WDYT?
Seeking authority here.
I would have to see the reference. Early modern pike drills kneel in formation to receive a cavalry charge, not for missile troops. I am not familiar with kneeling for archer fire though and what we know of archer deployments doesn't generally suggest it.
