For those that know the game, Saga is played at a 4 Points level to get used to the rules and a 6 points level to play the game at a bigger and more balanced level.

I have a mounted Warlord and a Warlord on foot to choose from.
I have 1 point of mounted Hearth guard with swords. – 4 minis
I have 1 point of mounted warriors with javelins. – 8 minis
I have 1 point of warrior crossbowmen. – 8 minis
I have 2 points of warrior spearmen. – 16 minis

On my Facebook page I asked for advice on where to spend my last point.

The consensus was to get Levy archers. You can’t shoot Harold in the eye without a bow and arrow or two. 🙂

There’s also an ability on the Norman battleboard that can’t be utilized by any unit other than levy archers.

I have some spare Medieval archers from a really good Conquest Games plastic set, but I wanted some to look a bit more plain and basic in their clothing so i got a couple of cheap Gripping Beast generic Dark Age Archers sprues on ebay.

I also have a Christian Priest and a Norman with a small flag (calling it a standard would probably be a bit grand) both to consider as options once built and painted.

Will assemble my archers soon and try and pick heads that look as Norman-like as i can.

It’s not one I’ve played, not being too big on historicals myself, how do you find the gameplay?
