This is the first of six obscure battles set in the 9th/10th century. At Aclea the armies of Wessex meet the Danes south of London and proved a decisive victory over the Danes.

Unfortunately this proved quite the opposite with the Danes slaughtering the Anglo-Saxons with each adjustment to either terrain or troop deployment.

How this was resolved can be read at the blog.

Next week I will post the re-fight of the battle.
Cheers,

I couldn't find a link on your blog to the battle reports.
