I learnt as much as I enjoyed playing this game. Every little detail is delicious, it was really fun to imagine the soldiers yelling things like "low-born orc" while they watch the battle from behind some trees :D

Short but awesome, this game was really well done.
I really love history, and I also love great games; this game had a lot going for me.

After making my entire army Varangian Guard (8 Vanagian troops and then the king's troops), I kept a line of troops up and down to prevent any enemy troops from getting behind mine, and just marched forward. The English kept all their troops in a concentrated group, and had no archers. I was able to out-maneuver them and get my guys on both sides, allowing no escape. They were basically dead when they decided archery wasn't a good thing, because that was all that could have stopped me.

Question...how can seventy archers fire five-hundred arrows in a single volley? Archer power should drop with either troop number, morale, or both. Other than that, great job.

Do the values listed at the team-selection screen list the modifiers for the soldiers you have, or just the orientation of the military doctrine that team uses? In other words, will my Norman knights have the offense value stated, or will it be modified by some type of bonus?

I just love this game! Wish there was more. Like new levels, more than just three armies to choose, something to turn of that fricking taunting because i keep loosing when enemy taunts and mode where no one can retreat. Everyone dies!!! That is what i like. Btw game makers ChannelFour and Preloaded London MAKE THE SEGUEL!!!

It's funny how one of the Earls from the first battle was a whimp and retreated first while the other stayed til the end.

WHERE THE HECK IS THE SEQUEL?! THIS GAME IS AWESOME SO IT DESERVES ONE! I was thinking that they could make one about the Hundred Years War, with the factions of England, Burgundy, and France. Or perhaps a Napoleonic version would be fun too. BUT PLEASE JUST MAKE A SEQUEL!

I really like this game. I am a fan of strategy games.Mostly I like the most for this game is the taunt because it is useful in every combat thus lowering their morale.

They say that civilization was born when the first man threw words instead of rocks. Never has this been more painful a truth than in this game.

strategy for bridge battle (story) position you spear militia in a shield wall at the bridge. You want to get to the bridge before they do. Hold out the bridge and whittle down their forces. Then advance on what is remaining( For me they were right outside the bridge) and outflank them. Btw love the game. The only thing that I wish they had is flanking and battleing from the side instead of just front and back.
