Let us say that the Rebellion of 1088, which failed partially due to bad weather on the Channel preventing Robert from actually sending troops to England, and partially due to bad organization, actually manages to succeed. Perhaps the bad weather of OTL is not so, and Robert's troops arrive in England, or Odo manages to win the Siege of Pevensey. Anyway, Robert becomes king; what does he do? How is he as a king (I'm assuming terrible given his OTL record as a ruler)? Does he achieve militarily what William Rufus did IOTL?
