We're jolly excited to say that our chums at The British Historical Games Society are hosting the inaugural SAGA Northern Melee at the BRITCON event on the weekend of 8th to 10th August.

Staying true to the spirit of the hardy Northern SAGA factions, “Northern Melee” will be one of the most epic tests yet for your Warlord and his Warband. This UK SAGA Event will allow you to test your skill and courage in 8-10 Scenarios over 2 or 3 days. You can choose the extent of your participation and design the competition to best fit your own personal situation. Clever, eh? All currently published Factions are allowed (excluding the Cross & Crescent Factions). All Swords for Hire and Heroes are included together with War Banners (as amended). A 6 Point Warband Composition can be used in each game, chosen from an 8 Point Roster submitted beforehand.

We will be providing plenty of prize support and freebies for participants.

As part of this ground-breaking collaboration, we have negotiated a special "sponsored" 20% Discount on the entry price for the Britcon SAGA tournament to £40 per head, including a £5 voucher to spend with any of the traders at the Britcon trade show - many of whom will be selling Gripping Beast figures and other SAGA goodies but you can spend it on other stuff, just don't tell Darren that's all.

This is a fantastic opportunity to take part in an Official UK SAGA Melee Event, pick up some SAGA goodies and also help showcase SAGA to the hundreds of other competitors and visitors at what is one of the UK's biggest and longest established multi-period wargaming conventions.

Britcon is organised by the BHGS and is held at the University of Manchester from 8-10th August. Competitions start on Friday evening and run through to Sunday afternoon, with discounted onsite university accommodation available, as well as a "student prices" bar and cafe within the gaming hall. The venue is opposite Manchester Piccadilly mainline station, with great connections to the whole of the UK.
