Ancient Warfare Feb/Mar 2020

CHARIOT warfare "across the ancient world from Egypt to China" is the theme of Ancient Warfare magazine's issue 4 of vol XIII.
Ancient Warfare … Egypt to the fore
I found this an especially interesting edition of a consistently entertaining magazine.
The one thing it did not clear up, at least for me, is how chariots used as a mobile shooting platform were able to out-shoot bow-armed infantry who had an advantage in numbers and stability.
Perhaps chariots avoided such infantry …?
