Good rules for Hastings / Stamford bridge?

[Pan Marek]

Gentlemen, I stand corrected.  I may just need to search out the WAB Shieldwall Supplement!

Thanks for all the suggestions and that beautiful set of pics!

Hi
May I suggest Comitatus?
The 6mm would stand well on the units bases needed for the rules. And this is a great dark ages set.

We've played both these battles pretty successfully using Saga (obviously heavily bath-tubbed), but in 28mm, not 6mm.
Surprisingly historical results; both were 2 v 2 battles with 2 x 5 point warbands per side.
Not recommended for 6mm, but it worked very well

We played the 1066 battles in 2016 - 950th anniversary (and we'll all be too old for the 1000 year anniversary). We used Hail Caesar and included mixed units of thegns and fyrd but kept the huscarls to a single, large body guard unit.

I've contemplated using Saga with small scale figures, using multi figures per base (my group has ton's of Warmaster armies, and using a single 40x20 base of 10mm figures for a single 28mm figure, meaning 8 bases of 10mm figures, 10-12 figures per base, for a unit of warriors).  In effect each model in saga becomes part of a unit of men. 

I think it would work out well enough, and would give a completely different feel to the game.
