The Viking are coming... the Vikings are coming ...

Keith hosted another DBA evening this week and six players got together for some games. I think we each played three games.

For me it was a chance to get my recently completed 15mm Vikings on the table, against my Saxons, as a matched pair of armies (we prefer to do that these days, where we have matched pairs). The Viking army I painted up is the (a) option with 10 x Fast Blade, 1 x Solid Blade General, and a Psiloi. It's the first time I have used a mostly fast blade combo, and I was fascinated by how the battle quickly became fragmented as the blade either pursued when they won, or fell back when they drew or lost a combat. I have to say, I enjoyed using them.

Just a small selection of photos from across the three games.
