Best Answer

Norman forces used clubs, maces, spears, and swords, primarily, in their assaults. William also had archers available, which the Saxons had abandoned in a rush to the south after the Battle of Stamford Bridge, though the Saxon's tactical placement (atop a hill) made the arrows less effective than they should have been. William's greatest asset in this battle was his wits - Norman forces staged false retreats to generate relief and a relaxation on their enemy's side, which lowered the guard for devastating victory.
