🛡️ Pillage by Victrix: Dark‑Ages Skirmishes Loaded with Loot

Victrix’s new skirmish game Pillage blends fast-paced combat with cinematic objectives—raiding villages, rescuing civilians, burning shrines, or holding onto your spoils. The core book covers the Viking Age (793–1066 AD) and includes rules for seven factions (Vikings, Saxons, Normans, Irish, etc.).

Games are quick (1–2 hrs), played on 4’×4’ tables with 15–30 minis—a perfect scale for using diverse sprues and lots of kitbash potential.

🧱 Build the Perfect Pillage Table with SprueDude Kits

Here are some SprueDude items that pair perfectly with Pillage—whether you're looting or defending:

Wargames Atlantic Markets & Barricades Sprue

A versatile kit that builds barricades, market stalls, crates, barrels, sacks, tables and more. Ideal for your Pillage loot piles—create ruined stalls bursting with silver, grain sacks, captives, and stray weapons.

Wargames Atlantic Dark Age Irish Sprues

Thirty multi‑part Irish warriors equipped with spears, swords, slings, axes, and their iconic Shillelagh. Perfect for Pillage’s Irish/Pict faction, or bolt a Dark Age shield onto any Gothic or generic figure to bolster your raiding forces.

Wargames Atlantic Goth Sprues

These Goths (spear, axe, bow, sling) are unarmored and ideal for customization. Just add Dark Age shields or heads from Victrix to convert them into versatile looters, foot soldiers, or border raiders.

Victrix Late Saxons – Huscarls

Elite Saxon warriors with Dane axes and mail—perfect glory boys to anchor your raiding party or village defense line. There's even a priest on the command sprue!

🧩 Final Take

Pillage is all about fast-moving, loot-driven skirmishes set in the Dark Ages. Pair Victrix’s rules with SprueDude’s sprues to build thematic, functional warbands and loot piles without breaking the bank. Whether you're storming a village or holding the longhouse, these kits add real-world flavor and narrative potential.

So break out the glue, swap some shields, and get raiding!
