To conquer the land of England by taking out the vikings and Anglo-saxansIt would take too long to write who a blow by blow account of Williams tactics in the battle, so for an brief but inclusive account of how the battle was played out I suggest that you go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_HastingsImprove: Harald Hardrada and his army were on the top of the hill. They mad a big wall of soldiers. When William and his army tried to break through, they kept falling down the hill. then, William and his army, pretended to retreat and, as soon as they did, The wall of Hardrada's army "broke" and the soldiers came down to attack William's army. Then William killed every Viking and Invaded!Hope that was a better explanation than going to Wikipedia! ;)The "improve" section is essentially correct, but it has errors in the details. Harald Hardrada was a Viking leader who Saxon King Harold defeated at the battle of Stamford Bridge. William fought King Harold had the battle of Hastings, not Harald Hardrada, and Saxons, not Vikings.
