This was meant to be a small, quick game, an encounter between small parts of the main armies.

Instead, it ended up with almost every painted Romano/British and Saxon/Pict with a weapon, including some of the crudely painted ones I've picked up here and there and haven't touched up yet. The table was also getting crammed as the four contingents converged.
Sooooo, after some thought. I decided to reorganize the units into smaller ones. It's only a 25% reduction but it allows a bit more manoeuvre room and a future reserve of bodies if I should ever get an unlikely urge to want to play a bigger, edge to edge, pitched battle.
Another option though, is to keep the 4 and 8 figure units, and reduce the number of scenario units. For example, instead of 6x6 figure infantry units (36 figures) use 4x8 units (32 figures).
Best to sleep on it and make a decision in the morning.
