Wargamer's UK Summer Tour

First time ever Team Finland would participate in Saga World Cup Teams Tournament...

Saga World Cup 2026 - Report Completed!

Stockport 1.-2.82026

Tradition of organising Saga World Cup as team tournament started already before covid and has now again continued for couple of years. I have considered organizing a team from Finland, but even missed the WC in Sweden 2025 due to being too busy playing other games at the same time...

So now it was certainly a high time to put together a team and so we did!

Armies on Parade: Ancient Persians - updated 22.7.2026

My typical Persian army, from left to right  8 warriors on camels, 6 HG in a combined formation, scythed chariot, warlord on horse, 12 levy with bows, elephant and Camel riders mercenaries. Might chance warriors to normal (horse) cavalry, if the opponent doesn't have lot's of cavalry and HG to mounted, if the opponent has very good shooting defense, like Republican Rome.
