As the shieldwalls clash, ravens fly overhead and lurk where the gory carnage is at its greatest. Command your Warriors, place your Ravens to create their carrion, dice for the luck of the Gods, and break your opponent's shieldwall before your own army loses heart and flees. Victory shall belong to the most cunning warlord, whose name shall be written into the Sagas. Battle Ravens is a game of Viking Age warfare: a brutal clash of strength, cunning and luck, where subtlety and nuance are neither welcome nor commonplace. You need to out-think and out-fight your opponent to win the battle. You do so by choosing whether to command your battle line to attack, defend, or redeploy through clever use of action points. Combat is resolved by the roll of dice, and armies consist of Hirdmen (armoured warriors), Bondi (unarmoured warriors), and Thralls (cowardly but useful skirmishers).Battle Ravens is designed by the twice Origins Award-nominated tabletop wargaming writer Daniel Mersey (whose miniatures rules include Dux Bellorum, Lion Rampant, Dragon Rampant, and The Men Who Would Be Kings). And we are delighted to announce that the playing pieces are all illustrated by well-known and popular historical artist Peter Dennis, based on his 'Paper Boys' concept (presented here on quality cardstock with plastic stands). The Battle Ravens core game features Anglo-Saxon and Norse armies. Each army has it's own artwork! We're offering additional armies as optional buys (Norman, Scottish and Welsh armies), and Tactics Cards as stretch goals (these add extra flavour to the army you're playing).Join our Kickstarter campaign now and take advantage of a great discounted price and some fantastic stretch goals link

I wonder what the record is???

I think this is a side effect of "the bug" and it has happened to me before. The message submits but does not appear to and you submit it again.

I'll be buying in, thanks for sharing.
