Shields

"...the guilty parties are Ailred the carpenter and Eoward the blacksmith, both men whose labour is required for the arming of those newly arrived who are destined for the shieldwall. Yet both men were seen in recent days partaking of ale when they should have been labouring with adze and hammer. It is not the first time that men required for battle have had their fitness to do so fall foul of these two miscreants, whom I suspect to be foul sodomites so often are they in each other's confidence and partaking of drink in each other's company.

"Do they not know that the ships of Fergus mac Urnach have been spotted off our shores in recent days? This is no time to indulge in perverted lusts or drunkenness - to work, wretches!"


A slight delay has unfortunately manifested itself with these Pulp Figures Saxons. A delay manifested in the addition of their shields, or more specifically in the tiresome task of painting of their designs....
