Other use for English armies 1066 campaign?

[Eric the Shed]

I don't distinguish my regular Vikings & Saxons as they all have round shields so they end up fighting each other as Vikings v Vikings, Saxons v Saxons and of course Saxons v Vikings - or they all join together to form one big army to fight my Normans - picture below from our epic refight of Hastings



We have also used Vikings, Saxons and Normans as a a 'human army' in a fantasy setting...

I’m currently playing a campaign set during the Earl’s Revolt of 1075. My Loyalist forces under Odo of Bayeux have used Anglo-Saxon light infantry (the thegns have either been killed or left for Byzantium or Denmark) with Norman mounted troops, heavier infantry and archers. My opponent who is playing the rebellious Breton lords is using his Norman troops. There was still a lot of fighting after 1066 so there is scope for mixing things up.

1930s Very British Civil War: the local (and extremely annoying) re-enactment group turn up and pitch in.....

Dark Age infantry are Dark Age infantry for the most part......

Happy, at the risk of committing heresy a Viking/Anglo-Danish force can also serve as a Fantasy Human army. I normally steer clear of Fantasy, but a mate of mine wanted to try the Osprey Oathmark rules. Not wanting to spend much cash I found my Viking army could provide all the core units. I just needed to buy some specific "fantasy" pieces which were actually a guilty pleasure to paint!

Conflict between Anglo-Saxons and Normans didn’t just end in 1066, there were a number of uprisings and some significant encounters……..

Agreed, I built a table where Morcar and Hereward have their last stand against William at the Battle of the Isle of Ely, 1071. Sadly health concerns didn’t allow me to put it on.
