At the start of Campaign Season 5, Charlemal's hard ruler trait means that he recruits a further four levy to his roster, increasing his four-man levy unit to eight-strong.

This year the Franks choose to raid the Norwegian province of Telamork.

Charlemal's Carolingians raided Telemork defended by Vikar's Vikings. The scenario was A Hall Burning, using 4-point warbands. In a tense and bloody battle, with heavy casualties on both sides, Charlemal, after killing Vikar, claimed victory in the last turn of the game when he set the hall ablaze by his own hand!

The Franks gain +1 point of Wealth and +1 CVP. They lost one foot Hearthguard, one mounted Hearthguard, two Warriors and one Levy. They recruited one Hearthguard and one mounted Hearthguard.
