Alfred attacks Lundenwic (London). The played stratagems cancel each other out and the Anglo-Saxons attack at bad odds. A 6 (defender withdrawal), forcing Guthrun and his men to quit the town.
Bluesky is sorta-kinda back up today but it's still throwing errors when attempting to open a specific post.
Welcome to match 2 of "Alfred the Great" (playtest phase, forthcoming from Decision Games Strategy & Tactics 372). I have the Vikings this round, @nopipbutcpip.bsky.social is playing the Anglo-Saxon side. Today we're experimenting with several optional rules (pillage and Danegeld).
