Would ne nice if you play this scenario again but with M/W/F, Aragorn would probably win that one ;)

Needs terrain :shock: :)

You'll have a lot more fun with even a few rocks in the way. Anyway, thanks for posting, looking forward to more.

Really want to use terrain, but i wated to play it like the book. Also yeah i think it would be a good idea to play it with M/W/F, but there is a chace that Aragorn could win it without

I am looking forward for you to go through some of the later issues ( Balin's tomb, Isengard's dam). I will be keeping an eye on your blog.

Maybe a chance for him to win within M/W/F but not a very big one, you would definitely need the dice gods on your side that day....

Once surrounded you are bound to lose a fight eventually and then you are looking at a scary amount of hits, as you discovered losing 4 wounds in one round :shock:

You don't need a budget to get started with Terrain. I often use my Reaper eyedrop style paint bottles as trees. Shaped card board packing (for any electronics) makes real easy rocks and hills.

There is also a couple sites that have some great paper terrain cut outs. Check out this bridge here at papercube http://www.mythoz.org/Joomla/index.php/ ... -out-pages

Check around construction sites or reno's. The solid foam insulation is great for crafting tons of things and there is always cut off and waste in any construction project. One mans junk is another mans treasure, Garage saling (in the summer) is also another good tactic for cheap terrain. Fish tank accessories make great terrain.

The best I ever found was a box of a game called "HeroScape". I got a giant cardboard box with a castle, ice mountain pieces and and tons of octagonal tiles. I offered the guy a dollar to take it off his hands, and I went away smiling like it was Christmas morning

If you used M/W/F I think Aragorn would've won
Any way hope to see some more reports soon :)

I liked your report. I liked your comments from both players.

I like to see some little markers placed where models exited the table (casualty markers).. it shows how the pack moves over the table.

Thanks for sharing :yay:
