@TheMetalPenguin They did actually fight like this, running straight into a shieldwall of pissed-off Saxons is suicide, they would do a sort of 'drive-by' instead.

Seeing the Norman knights retreating, the spectator broke ranks and chased after them.

I love the prancing mule at 1:08 lmao

Well the cavalry didn't charge straight in anyway, they galloped around, struck once, rinse and repeat.
-
horses wont charge a solid object,if the shield wall holds firm the horse will stop,unless the horse can jump it horses not totally stupid,infantry have to make a gap then the cavalry can pour thru,charge the gap

I'm an American but I think it's kind of neat that I can trace my ancestry back to Norman Knights, at least that's what it said when I Googled up my last name, Trowbridge....but I'm sure many will tell me just how wrong and offbase I am, have at it. I do have family though that have been to Trowbridge in Wiltshire, there is a picture of my Aunt Sara standing in front of a road sign saying Trowbridge 10 km and I think Frome 15km, I need to find that picture.

That Cavalry looks like militia cavalry to me.

Haha. Normans.

That must have really been something to see!

Why don't they try placing soft dummies to charge at? Would be nice...
how do you get 12 normans into a bathroom? Tell them it isn't thiers.
