Building a database of 290,000 English medieval soldiers – here’s what it reveals. It allows historians to demonstrate that, unlike today where the armed forces specialise, the medieval soldier would have served repeatedly across different theatres of war. theconversation.com/we-built-a-d...

If you look for a nice book to add to the shelves this season, any of these will be a great choice.

Funny thing is, I’m not really interested in left versus right. I tend to split the world into dickheads and not dickheads. I have noticed lately though that the further right or left somebody is on the political spectrum, the more likely they will be a dickhead… #thisyearspoliticalpoint

Finished the three loot markers as well. A pile of silver dropped whilst fleeing and two barrels containing… ale maybe?! #wargaming #spreadthelard #Pillage #miniaturepainting
November 21, 2025 at 5:26 PM
And this is what the Saxons look like on a sabot base! Whilst I’m working towards a Pillage! Warband at the moment, I’ve got plenty more to do and other rule sets to try… #spreadthelard #wargaming #miniaturepainting
November 21, 2025 at 4:45 PM
Finished off the next four unarmoured warriors for the Saxon Pillage! Warband. Based the same way as the armoured warriors to give some uniformity to the band. #wargaming #spreadthelard #miniaturepainting
November 21, 2025 at 4:43 PM
First loot token for Pillage! done. A pile of silver coins bursting out of their bags. #Pillage #spreadthelard #wargaming
November 20, 2025 at 6:12 PM
What’s left to do for Pillage!? Well first, the Saxons with a chieftain and unarmoured warriors. Then for the Vikings, we have unarmoured warriors to add to the band. So about 9 miniatures. And I’ve built a couple of loot markers from the terrain pile! #wargaming #Pillage #spreadthelard
