Can anyone enlighten me as to how accurate it is?
Things like the Saxon rectangular shields, the elaborate shield wall and use of sharpened sticks etc in battle. I always thought Danes and Saxons would have been similarly equipped and similar fighting styles due to their origins?
Also, does anyone know how the battles were on a much smaller scale in comparison to Ancient battles? Is this just due to less exaggeration or something else?
Thanks in advance for any insight!
