Saga: Age of Viking League

I'm spinning up a Saga: Age of Vikings escalation league. We've got 8 players, with beautifully painted armies. We all showed up last weekend to kick it off. We started at 4 points, and plan on escalating up to 6 over the course of the league.

We are playing over 5 weekends in the upcoming months, with 2 games per session. We've working our way through the Book of Battles, for this first session we played "Prized Possessions" and "Claiming Territory". We are also using the "Sagas" rules for leveling up your warlord, with some bonus experience awarded for having a sweet viking costume, bringing terrain, having a display board, etc. 

I brought my Scots with King Macbeth, the last pagan king of Scotland. I won my first game against the Normans, and lost my second against the Jomsvikings. The first session was super fun!
