Thanks again.
Right now I have seven knights of the north on the desk to be painted. I made them from Fireforge Mounted Seargents and heads from Fireforge Foot Seargents, Grippimg Beast and Warlord Kelts.

Pictures might follow this weekend, as theres too much happening here right now.

I'll be back
Cheers

It finally has happened:
I had the chance to present my personal SAGA Westeros scenario at the Bremer Spieletage last weekend.

The scenario was the "Last Stand" from SAGA C&C, battleboards were the Anglo-Saxons for the White Wanderers and the Anglo-Danes for the Night's Watch.
Battle took place in the icy cold winter north of the Wall.









The 9 games that Weekend worked very well. I was warned that SAGA would be hard to present to people not suited to table top wargaming, but I learned that people adjusted their thinking very fast. Even mothers with 7 year old children did take on the game and played quite well.

In the last stand, a group of the Nights Watch gets caught in the cold night at Crasters Farm. The White Wanderers assault them with waves of undead. So the Watch are deployed around the center of the table and the Wanderers start the game needing to activate twice to get into melee range.

The Wanderers have 5 rounds to eliminiate the Watch foot soldiers, the Warlord being mounted.

Most games had their edge up to the last activation, so I am pleased with the days.

Cheers
GS
