Thanks for the kind words. The large Viking boat is an old model that was sanded down to make it a waterline boat. I bought it off ebay. I think you can also get them through Amazon. It’s 1/72 scale, but that’s close enough for me. The smaller boats were originally made by Merrimack Miniatures. I think Old Glory sells them now. The Saxon ships (the ones without a dragon’s head) were scratch built by yours truly.
The figures are a mixture of several manufacturers. Essex, Chariot, Irregular, Two Dragons Production, Baueda, Splintered Light and many others that I can’t remember. The terrain was supplied by Uncle Bob Duncan.
And of course, as always, it’s Raybin’s prose that brings it all to life.
Thanks again, Mike

I really enjoyed your report – a very impressive range of figures, terrain and (especially) the boats. Please can you identify the supplier of the boats and if possible the Viking figures. I recognised some LKM?QRF and Splintered Light figures.

many thanks, Steve
