The command span shrinks as the warband takes casualties, creating the effect that the warriors band closer together as the battle progresses.<br /><br />I does suffer from a lack of expansion and support though; the author seemed to have planned on expansions covering the other nations attacked by the Vikings, but now there is no activity on the Yahoo group.captain arjunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08242730277113727477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35742908.post-78145985581534092162011-02-15T07:36:33.219+08:002011-02-15T07:36:33.219+08:00Can't wait to hear how the rules play out.
