III/71 Anglo-Danish

Cracking 2 part program on the box this week, 1066 The Battle for Middle-Earth, recounting the 3 battles that took place during the fateful year of 1066. A great watch, if you missed it or can't receive Channel 4 then here's a link to catch up TV http://www.channel4.com/programmes/1066/catch-up

SO.... Off we went to the DBA boxes & morphed a Anglo-Saxon army to battle the VIKINGR! Tofi, Leofric and Ordgar come to life on our battlefield & we re-fought the Battle of Stamford Bridge. Hopefully we'll re-fight Hastings against the nasty Normans later...

Now then Mike!

Cheers for the nice comments bud. My apologies I can't believe Channel 4 doesn't stream it to the States...! Never mind, I've looked & you can get it from Amazon.

All the Best
