I still have some games to catch up on, but this one is striking while the iron is hot, played on Saturday just gone.
The usual suspects for our three player MESBG games. Hosted by NSYN - all scenery his work - in fact only the Easterlings were mine.
I managed to locate an "official" three-player scenario from White Dwarf. The central tower contained gold which we had to get back to our huts.
I got my Easterling archers up on a hill. From whence they proved again how useless archery is in MESBG.
My Kataphrakts charged wold riders and a succession of 6s saw them all die very quickly.
meanwhile I raced for the tower.
With two more Kataphrakts heading off to mess up the Gondorians.
The King of the Dead decided to deal with the Cave Troll personally.
I was making off with plenty of gold (blue/beads) but Gondor was doing well too. The Orcs were mostly dying.
My remaining Kataphrakt was finding it difficult to kill any Gondorians.
The Ringwraith was trying to snipe my General for bonus victory points.
Soon my gold gatherers found an angry Dead Ruler hunting them down.
Faramir too was proving resilient.
The Dead Blokes were ruthless in dealing with my forces.
In the end Gondor had the most gold, had killed most Generals, was unbroken and the clear winner.
The scenario worked well and it all looked very jolly.
