Game 9 – Carnival of Chaos Vs. Possessed 9/26/07  - DRAW

            This week we’ve got a couple of alternative scenarios.  This first of which is “The Writing on The Wall”, a competition winner by James Burkhouse.  Our goal is to reach an alley in the center of the map, decipher a map, and then destroy the wall before anyone else can learn it.

            I face off against Tank’s Possessed.  His warband has missed a few games, so he gets a big underdog bonus for xp. Tank uses his faster speed (5”) and a shortcut on his side of the board to reach the map by turn 2. It takes me 2 more turns to reach the center of the board and by that time he’s got the map deciphered. 

            A little shooting and close combat ensues, and the carnival comes out on top.  Tank’s possessed fail a rout test which ends the scenario in a draw.  All in all a fairly short, boring game since we never got a chance to get fully engaged in combat.

Post Game:       The Bloody Mummers find 3 shards, and a straggler and gain 55 g.c.

                        Vargo has recovered and will be in the next match.

                        Vargo recruits The Plague Cart and a Plague Bearer.
