Includes 125 illustrations (35 in color).

Profusely illustrated, Martin takes us through this little-known period from the collapse of the Roman Empire to the 11th century AD. Looking at the United Kingdom, he covers the Arthurian period, the battles of Dyrham, Heavenfield, Maserfield, Ashdown, Ethandun, Buttington, Maldon, and the battles with the Normans and Vikings between 1066 and 1069. He takes us on a tour of the sites, gives us historical facts to make game play more fun, and includes simple rules and tips on making Dark Ages war games more realistic.
