We gave the combination of Maelstrom (which I do not usually like) and Seize the prize a go a couple of weeks ago. This will be round one of our one day charity event @ Tempest later this month. I figure that this is a combination to wake us up on a Saturday morning! I just hope the deployment zones do not get flooded with Moria Goblins.

I think it works well and I like Maelstrom much better for this particular victory condition.

Thanks for reading.

Explains why Saruman was so hell bent on chasing them up into the cold, frozen, north, eh? :)

Thanks Hilbert, the game was very close and Berserkers vs Uruks in defensible terrain is a combat that on average I should lose. So I was lucky to win that and get the fifth objective, at the death.







(edit: No typing before coffee, it should be a rule.)

Ordinarily, I don't find luck to be a decider but I think that my opponent did everything right (not that I feel I did anything wrong, aside from being too rash with Buhrdur) and I am amused that I still got to, narrowly, beat him.

In the context of a three round mini-comp, I am going to have to think about how to relatively weigh the primary (prize tokens) and secondary (VPs) objectives for the overall result. I think I was ahead on VPs there (NRBH) but it is close - he lost more coys and a couple of captains but I lost a VH2K hero-monster and a fair few guys too.
