Relicblade Skirmish in the Cyclopean Ruins
A little departure from the Five Leagues Blightburners Campaign. Wanted to do a quick post as this was a fun game. Below- couple of glamour shots, the table set up then the story and pictures.
Two warbands converged on the vine-choked ruins from opposite sides. Lady Aurelia’s Advocates struck with precision: her Bounty Hunter claimed the high rampart, trading sharp crossbow bolts with the enemy Iguan Marauder. Above the fray, the Elf Witch magically chinooked her Gnome Grenadier onto a commanding perch, his gun covering the field.
Both sides secured two loot tokens each after cautious checks for ancient traps. Then the brutish pig snatched the final token from the center cart. Under the Gnome’s covering fire (which barked and staggered the pig), Lady Aurelia charged in — a whirlwind of steel — and engaged the beast in a brutal scrap right beside the abandoned wagon.
At that critical moment Griksek the Crab erupted from the ruins and slammed into her. The Dark Prophet appeared like a shadow and hurled vile poison at the Gnome. A fierce melee erupted. Though Lady Aurelia’s faithful Billman was ambushed and knocked senseless by a pair of slinking lizard hounds, the Lady fought on valiantly. Griksek was finally disabled at her feet — a hard-won triumph.
But the distraction let the pig slip away with the prize. The lizard hounds melted back into the stones before the Witch could finish them. The Bounty Hunter, having bloodied the Iguan, exchanged a respectful nod with his foe as both adversaries faded into the ruins. The Dark Prophet vanished last with a mocking snicker.
Outcome: Adversaries escaped with the dangerous cargo, but Lady Aurelia left their strongest fighter broken in the dust of those ancient stones.
