"The problem, as in all warfare, is mostly one of supply and logistics. "

So true, in warefare. In battle, a Knight - rather than thinking about grain, would have worried more of the halberd, arrow and pike.

Halberd:

A pike fitted with an axe head.

Well, in battle that would certainly get my attention. Thanks for the new word.
