So, two questions I guess regarding the hundred years war.

Firstly: During the Battle of Crécy otl, Philip VI had his horse killed under him twice, he just about managed to escape the scene of the fighting. What would have happened had during one of those times, Philip had been dragged down by his horse's fall and crushed under the weight of the beast, thus dying during the battle? I'm pondering this in relation to the battle itself, the progress of the Edwardian phase of the HUndred Years War at large, and the running of France in general.

Secondly: What might the consequences have been if at Poitiers, instead of being captured and escaping respectively, both John II of France and Charles, Dauphin of France had died?
