Dux Britanniarum
« on: 23 October 2015, 11:45:14 AM »
John brought our Dux Britanniarum campaign to a successful conclusion for the Britons as my Saxon host was defeated and Cuthwulf was driven into the wilderness as a King without a Kingdom. http://fencingfrog.blogspot.com/2015/10/cuthwulfs-final-battle.html

Initial set up:


Champions square off:


The Saxon Flanking maneuver

Agree about the lovely set-up of terrain and painted figures. Very atmospheric - it feels "Dark Ages". Sounds like a dramatic campaign, too. Thanks for sharing.
