The only thing guns destroyed were castles and that's only for them to return with vengeance in the 16th century. Seriously, instead of eliminating sieges it's statistical fact that in areas where star forts and other advanced fortifications were made all warfare was nothing but a huge list of sieges.
EDIT: Dude, I have more posts than you and joined earlier than you. I almost exclusively only posted in the NRP section. Me not participating in enough RPs, really? You just had a few bad games and try to generalize it, that's all.
<Snipped quote by Darkspleen>Depends on how widespead, really.
I mean it's a fact that the "knight in shining armor" image and the growing armies of gunmen were actually developed in parallel in history. The idea that guns destroyed "pure medieval style combat" is a big hogwash and actually it wasn't till the 17th century in Europe when the heavy cavalry started to go out of favor.
The kind of gunman that could render armor almost irrelevant was the musketeer, the original one. They were large physically fit men carrying oversized firearms firing bullets with diameters you nowadays see for light cannons. They were paid double for their services.
<Snipped quote by Monkeypants>British disagree with you. They kept archers on ships up till the late 17th century or so?
Make no mistake guns were a phenomenon of the era which brought many changes over the time. They did have their quite significant advantages. But in the end both were weapons that could kill a man and what really led to the end of the longbow era that Britain ran out of the wood used for them and men training from birth to be longbowmen grew scarce.
