Premières infos:
• The factions available each with their own battle board and special rules for this event will be Anglo-Saxon, Viking, Norman, Celts(Welsh, Scots, Irish)
• 1 General : Free (normally based to stand out from the other figures some suitably large or imposing figure or using a slightly larger base)
• 6pts force for each game dependant on scenario. The list you choose to start with determine your force for the whole day. You may change your force composition for the second day but must still be of the same Faction ie you could use 6 units of 4 Elite Hirdmen from the Viking army on Saturday and then on Sunday change this force to 4 units of elite Hirdmen and 2 units of Thralls, but whatever the composition this must be also be from the Viking force and used for the rest of that day. There is no compulsion to change your force.
As the book is not out yet to give you some idea of force composition and to help the early birds with there painting. Points will be as follows:
• 4 figures Elite: Hurscarls, Hirdmen, Knights, etc cost 1pt
• 8 figures Warriors: Bondir, Fryd, etc cost 1pt
• 12 figures Levy: Great Fryd, Thralls, etc cost 1pt
• These can be taken in any number you want ie a 25 fig army inc General of all elite or a 73 figure army of all levy or anywhere in-between. Just a point of note here Levy units do not generate any Saga dice so you might not want to many.
• They can join the same type or split to min 4 fig units ie 2 units of Elite Hurscarls can join to make an 8 man unit or a unit of 12 Levy Thralls can split into 2 units of 6 men.
• Shooting is not a great factor in Saga but as a rough guide : One unit of Norman warriors if taken on foot, may be equipped crossbows and their levy may take bows, Viking levies may take bows, Saxon levies bow or slings and Celts allow their hearth guard and warriors to be equipped with javelins but at a cost to their armour save, their levies may have bows, slings or javelins
