    Product details

    Background & context

    Der Begriff Huscarl kommt aus dem Altnordischen und meint den Hausmann - den Gefolgsmann, der im Haushalt seines Herrn lebt und für ihn kämpft. Knut der Große brachte die Einrichtung nach seiner Eroberung 1016 nach England, wo aus ihr eine besoldete Kerntruppe der Könige und Earls wurde. Anders als der aufgebotene Fyrd trugen diese Männer Kettenhemd und Helm und übten mit der beidhändig geführten Dänenaxt, die einen Reiter samt Pferd fällen konnte. Bei Stamford Bridge und Hastings 1066 bildeten Harold Godwinsons Huscarls den Kern des Schildwalls - bis zum letzten Mann auf dem Hügel von Senlac.

    On the tabletop

    As bodyguards of kings and earls, the 36 huscarls are the heavily armoured spearhead of your late Anglo-Saxon English army. Armed with the two-handed Dane axe they form the core of the shield wall, or they can take up spears instead. There are enough round shields for every figure, with kite shields added for the later Saxons and Anglo-Danes. The Dane axes also fit some bodies from the Late Saxons set. At Stamford Bridge and Hastings they stand around Harold Godwinson.
