Harald the Barrel Victorious but bloodied...

The Swansong of Harald's campaign against all comers.  This time he was attacking the Bretons, a mixture of Scots and Frank's. 


Harald and the boys line up against the Celtic Fringe.


At a conservative estimate there were 250 figures on each side, and probably nearer 300.


Harald comes on, violently assaulting the centre.


The Frank's charge in their cavalry, unsuccessfully...




That has to hurt


The big brawl for the village


And looking from Harald's side as he assaults



King Pepin deserts Lord Oliver, and joins Lord Roland.  It's not going to go well.


On the far left the Vikings assault the bog




And the Frank's hold that wood.


Harald's right is threatened.


But he turns on the Frank's sweeping away the sink unit.


Meanwhile those Scots struggle.


Until the turn of the battle, Brave Harald falls...


The Frank's have another go, with predictably catastrophic results...


And it's officially declared a massacre for both sides.  The Scots Cavalry undertake a magnificent charge routing a warband.  It seemed to me that the Scots had two units remaining, the Frank's three, plus skirmishers and the Vikings five units.
