In this game you can choose to be Harold Godwinson or Duke William. And you have to attack or defend yourself against the opposition. I liked the a part in the game were you cannot win as Harold because it is true because Harold lost in real life so in the game he as to die eventually in the battle. During the game I learned about a few battle strategies and the geography of the war. In the Battle of Hastings there were three rivals the Norwegian the English and the French (Normandy) they are all fighting for the throne of England or to keep it. I think this is a good learning experience because it teaches you a bit about the Battle of Hastings and who one and lost. Also it shows about some battle strategies.

In this game you are the Normans and fighting the English and the French (Normandy) for the rights over England. I liked this game because it was really challenging and very hard. During this game I learned a bit about battle tactics and how to make an army even. During the game I learned about a few battle strategies and the geography of the war. In the Battle of Hastings there were three rivals the Norwegian the English and the French (Normandy) they are all fighting for the throne of England or to keep it. This is a good learning experience because at the beginning it has a lot of information that is useful.
