Mansions of Madness
Mike (evil overlord) brought over his new game and Phil (Professor), Andy (alcoholic writer) and Bruce (Ashcan Pete) took on the starter scenario. The team spent a great deal of time exploring every possible location and found themselves rapidly running out of time. Finally they were able to discover the Named Maniac but an unlucky shotgun malfunction at the last minute allowed Mike to win as the crazed axeman had 1 hit point remaining as the house began to collapse around the hapless adventurers heads!
A great game, challenging and fun. Everybody is looking forward to the next scenario.
Battlelore
Heroes expansion. Second scenario. Uruk hai and saruman vs gondor and faramir. Phil played evil, mike good. The first game on the first move had saruman wounded by a trap. However his forces soon won the day. This was partly due to the devastating arbelestier units on the right flank.
The second game was a much closer affair. Both sides scored six flags each as gondor attacked strongly and rapidly against evils right flank to neutralise the arbelestiers. However a strong push on his left flank allowed saruman and his uruk hai to claim victory, taking the seventh flag after faramir’s elite rangers failed to destroy the phalanx as it pushed forward across the bridge.
All in all a good couple of games with some crucial lore cards played, like mike’s evades and phil’s mass shield. The most evil card play being false orders against mike’s battlelore right at the end of the second game.
