With this blog, I hope to channel some of my long standing interest in the tenth through twelfth centuries into a somewhat regular series of postings on my miniature projects, books I am reading and articles I hope to write. Much of this will be centered on the SAGA game system, although I hope to give Clash of Empires and Hail Caesar a try this year.

I have a sizable reserve of finished Normans, Vikings and Saxons to post, and I am really interested in tips on photographing miniatures with ordinary digital cameras - if such a thing can be done.
