Egil and some Viking Hirdmen.

Here comes the core of the Vikings. Two units of Bondi. I went with axes mostly to visually separate them from the spear-armed Anglo-Saxons.

Good King Harald Hardrada and some Varangian Guards.

Slowly wrapping up my Blood Angel infantry…

Last of the Golden Boys. A scratch-built version of Tycho.

Some Geburs with Spears – using bucklers to distinguish them from the Ceorls – and assorted generic Levies with bows, slings and javelins. This should cover most warband types!






Again, I am behind in posting (and photographing) models. I have now completed the rest of the Anglo-Saxon Warband with the addition of two units of Hearthguard and a generic Warlord. I will be painting some of the special leaders later, as well as adding a generic pool of peasants from which different warbands can draw their levy contingent.
The models are a mix of metal and plastic as usual. At the very bottom are some fatigue markers using the wooden dial bases that I use for other games (not sure how useful it will be as the dials go from 1 to 12 which seems overkill for SAGA – I might replace them with simple “chip” style fatigue markers later).
