The full AAR and lots more photos are on my blog: https://wyndehurstproductions.blogspot.com/2023/01/new-years-day-viking-invasion-of-mercia.html

 To celebrate New Years day and the completion of my Anglo-Saxon army, I took over the living room for a family battle. Since I was playing with my Wife and two son (8 & 5) I chose to use De Re Belloludi rules as they are basically super simplified Hail Creaser rules.

The game is a simple engagement where 2 Viking brothers are invading the Kingdom of Mercia with a strong force of professional fighters. Opposing them is Queen Æthelfled of Mercia accompanied by a loyal "General" (wink wink) with a larger but weaker force of local Fyrd, though they have more shooting.
