So I can say there will be more SAGA warbands for 2014. I'd like to port my SAGA skirmish figures into Impetus, HC or DB with the Warlords bases. We'll see!

As something of a novice at Maurice, <br />I have yet to master the finer points of tactics and strategy in the world of black powder wargaming, but the terrain must certainly have limited your options.<br /><br />But what REALLY grabbed my attention was the gathering of inked chappies in the last picture - I look forward to seeing acres of tartan over the next few weeks!Evan Hugheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18107866906860803155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227525544754109991.post-76168826015639776692013-12-23T14:06:52.998-06:002013-12-23T14:06:52.998-06:00Thanks Glenn, and good question.

We've had some classics, like our first game of Maurice where we each were a point from breaking and you played Death of a Hero to win it all. The people watching broke out and cheered.
