The charge of Arthur .... Lion Rampant in 550AD.

Not too recently i completed by Mythic Britain project. Since that time several Lion Rampant games have occurred with Arthur carrying all before him.

This game was the 'defend the indefensible' scenario. The British light cavalry proved devastating to the saxon fierce foot. 

It was their speed that decided the day as well as the bludgeoning force of Arthur's mounted men. 

Losses were acrued but not enough to decide the day for the Saxons. The Brits were able to assault the fierce foot before the Saxon heavy foot could be injected decisively. 

Note my scratch built burial mound centre piece, which i am very pleased with, with Merlin watching on atop.

Here the armoured wedge crashes violently into the Saxon tribesmen. 

I stil; haven't completely balanced the forces but the Saxons have not yet used the full force of their many units in unison to attack a given point. 

But the battle for Britain is far from decided ...
