Aiming to be down with Saga to give an Age of Magic list a run, probably at 6 points and probably without anything too fancy in it, just not sure which one as yet.

Might give it a miss this week and sort out some Test of Honour bits ready for Saturday.

Going to make it in around lunch if Reece is still up for it.
Will probably bring SAGA and DBA.

It appears the easiest way to avoid being killed by the Picts is to simply not bring in SAGA.
Had some good games of DBA though.

had a game with seriously swingy dice, some 15 attacks, hitting on a 4+ resulting in three or four hits.. meah it happens.

I do think in a game this scale anything that can re-roll hits or saves is essentially broken, especially when its a matter of course thing and not a special ability. A unit with armour 3+ should not be able to get a 4+ re-rolled save, Re-rolls are something special for characters, or should be.

grrrr.

fun games though, second one being seriously bloody, without more issues around dice I may have actually won it, stuff like 12 warriors hitting on a 3+ with the enemy saving on a 5+ should not result in... one kill. Did however manage turn one strikes with three units, one as noted above basically bounced off, second got half of that gimpy unit, but that was on a seriously swung to the good set of dice (as in nearly all attacks hit), third into archers was "ok" but nothing special.

managed to corner his cavalry as well without defensive abilities and nerfed most, nearly got that blasted chariot as well.

swings and things that go around
