Today I have mostly been…. Driving round Wales seeking castles from land and aerial views. I thought it would be nice to share with the group.

Her build was as follows, She took a mounted warlord with cataphract armour, 2 […]
It was Saturday evening and Chris and I met for a game of saga from the new Age of invasions book. We decided to keep things simple and play clash of warlords. I used Sassanids and took for my 6 points a warlord with cataphract armour and 2 points of hearthguard also with cataphract armour. […]
