The Battle of Arsuf

The Battle of Arsuf took place on 7 September 1191, as part of the Third Crusade. It saw a multi-national force of Crusaders, led by Richard I of England, defeat a significantly larger army of the Ayyubid Sultanate, led by Saladin.

Following the Crusaders' capture of Acre, Saladin moved to intercept Richard's advancing army just outside of the city of Arsuf (Arsur in Latin) as it moved along the coast from Acre towards Jaffa. In an attempt to disrupt the cohesion of the Crusader army as they mobilized, the Ayyubid force launched a series of harassing attacks that were ultimately unsuccessful at breaking their formation. As the Crusaders crossed the plain to the north of Arsuf, Saladin committed the whole of his army to a pitched battle. The Crusader army maintained a defensive formation as it marched, with Richard awaiting the ideal moment to mount a counterattack. However, after the Knights Hospitaller launched a charge at the Ayyubids, Richard was forced to commit his entire force to support the attack. The Crusader charge broke the Ayyubid army; Richard was able to restrain his cavalry from a rash pursuit, regrouping them to achieve victory.

Following the engagement, the Crusaders secured control over the central coast of Palestine, including the city of Jaffa.

Happy Birthday Altair Ibn La'Ahad

Happy 860th birthday to Altair Ibn McSassafrass!!

This man is lean, mean and fights like a machine but he's also managed to worm his way into the hearts of many an Assassin's Creed fan.

Happy birthday to the OG who walked so Ezio could run!! (Referring to how his game came first not what order he comes in according to the creation of the brotherhood)

Richard the Lionheart @ Philip leaving Acre was really like “You’re gonna go back?? To oversee the succession of Flanders and wellbeing of the kingdom?? That pales in comparison to MY plan, retaking Jerusalem” and then failed to retake Jerusalem
