Snorri Ragnarsen's Raid - Part 1 (of 3)

Along the coast a Saxon ship (part of Earldorman Rodor little navy) is on patrol and is trying to find out where the viking ships it spotted went ashore ...
Snorri Ragnarsen and his men go ashore,  a larger than usual ship guard has been left (as he saw the saxon ship a while back)
The men of the town prepare their defence
The vikings move up into the town
The two sides skirmish ....
The vikings make short work of the saxon skirmishers and move forward ...
The vikings charge the saxon shieldwall ...
The fighting is hard and the saxons are just holding off the vikings, in the distance the men from the nearby villages have gathered and are on their way to help  ....
 
---oXo---
 
to be continued....

Looks like the village Fyrd are putting up some unexpectedly stout resistance!
