1x4 Bersearkers
3x4 Heatguards
2x8 Warriors
Anglo-Danish
Warlord - Sweyn Veggr
2x4 Heatguards with two handed axes
2x12 Warriors
1x12 Levys
Forgot to photo the setup... this is after two turns of Vikings advancement with the major part of the small village, only defended by some ill coordinated levy archers...
The rest of the Anglo-Danes had formed a nice sheild wall just outside the village expecting the Vikings to charge headlong...
Panic in the village as the vild vikings approaches... the levys tryed to put up a fight but was quite fast overrun and slughterd as livestock.
The poor Anglo-Danish levys tryed to put up a fight but was quite fast overrun and slughterd as livestock. The viking consolidated within the village planing to use it as a launchboard fore a attack in the flank of the Anglo-Danish shieldwall.
The Anglo-Danish warlord Sweyn now advanced with the main part of he´s men only sending a small group of heathguards to secure the flank against the threat in the village...
Runolf the Red took the bait and started to move his warband away from the village, also moving the bersearkers forward from their possision in the rear, to meet the Anglo-Danes in the open...
Several turns of combat followed, Runolf the Red seemed to have the best fighters around and the victory was close...
The Anglo-Danish warlord Sweyn Veggr was desperate, he had to show how was the man for the day and charged in to a last single combat with the Viking warlord...
A fierce fight took place and several warriors and heatguards on both sides sacrificed their lives for theirs warlord...
After the dust had cleard Runolf the Red laid slain on the ground and the remaining vikings was fleeing for their ship. Sweyn Veggr raised he´s blody axe in the sky...FREEEEEDOM;)
Anglo-Danish Victory 16 to 15...not to decisive.
This was a good and very close fight, and I think Sören was hooked by the SAGA hype:)
Véry nice village !!
