Hastings '02

The clash of sword on shield	The crunch of broken ribs under the mail vest	… now you’ve just annoyed the Count !	Sir Roger leaps forward to defend his lord	and gets a shield in the face
But more fill in the gaps in the Norman wave	despite the lilac colours of the Saxons	Sir Roger de Clare	Geoffroy de Bernay	The armour wades into the sea of spears
The line goes forward yet again up Senlac Ridge	The two lines clash, only a foot apart…	…death coming from all around, from the air, the spear, the axe	Arwulf de Lisieux	The Norman spearline seeking gaps in the Saxon shield-burgh
The boar-snout Wedge goes forward	Arwulf runs into battle with his hand axe	The final rout of the encircled Saxons	Save some for me!
