This leaves you with a difficult choice to make: change your design or create your own bespoke solution.</p></br> [/parsehtml]Read more at: http://www.taleworlds.com/en/Games/Bannerlord/Blog/81

However, I would say the succession of Edward the Confessor, and therefore the restoration of the Wessex line and Anglo-Saxon rule meant the Anglo Saxons were the eventual victors (until the Normans), as they were able to finally reclaim control. However, I had forgotten about Cnut the Great for a bit, thanks for bringing him back to my attention.
You shot me here. I didn't know about the guy. Always thought Harold killed in 1066 is just englicised version of norse name Harald and descendant of Cnut the Great. Well, you learn sth new every day.
They sure fought fiercly for such tiny strip of land

All this talk about vikings vs anglo saxons reminds me that after the Norman Conquest, anglo saxons formed a significant part of the famed varangian guard. Vikings, Kievan Rus and Anglo Saxons must have used compatible tactics to integrate so easily.

Tbf, Edward the confessor was, I believe, at least somewhat descended from Norse blood himself, but viewed himself as English, and his rule as English.dr4gunov said:Roccoflipside said:A fair point.

Out of curiosity, did you think Stamford bridge was fought between two Norse groups? Or an English army led by a Norse King? Not terribly important, just wondering
