1066 "Pocket Sized" Hastings Wargame

This week on Little Wars TV, the guys conclude our 1066 trilogy with the a dramatic showdown at the iconic Battle of Hastings. Historically, this is a battle that forever redefined English history by ushering in William the Conqueror's Norman rule. Today, we sit down with medieval historian Kelly DeVries to discuss lingering questions about the events of 1066. Why did Harold Godwinson rush to engage William? Is the current battlefield location accurate? And why would Duke William risk everything to cross the channel on a perilous invasion? And then, two players will face off in a "pocket sized" 2'x2' wargame to refight Hastings in 6mm scale. Can the Anglo-Saxons rewrite history? Find out now!

Our 1066 series showcases how you can fight the biggest, most famous battles of the Dark Ages and early Medieval era without a big budget! If you like our armies, they are 6mm scale Baccus Miniatures, though you can play Big Battle Ravenfeast with ANY scale figures you like! The Big Battle supplement is available right NOW, for free, on the official Ravenfeast website:
