Blackwulf moves twice and examines and opens the door to the Inn’s private meeting room, finding nothing


CREATURE PHASE

Werewolf- Suddenly wicked growling is heard, the Kitchen door slams open and a Werewolf comes barreling out attacking Blackwulf!  it needs two actions to reach him so they wont fight yet

A giant fly explodes out of the corpse of an animal nearby. Randomly select one
heroic figure. This figure should make a Move Roll (TN16). If successful, place the
giant fly anywhere up to 3” away from this figure. If the roll is failed, place the giant
fly in combat with the heroic figure.


I flip a coin and determine this happens outside, Gord is unlucky figure his move roll (15) +7 or 22
Put the fly 3 inches from him for the next turn


TURN 7

RANGER PHASE

Werewolf Regenerates 2 Hp, Now  11 health..

Blackwulf activates Skuti and Sigurd in the Ranger Phase

Blackwulf attacks the Werewolf its 4 vs 1, he has huge +10 vs +4 bonus he attacks (18,5) ,  He doesn’t even need his deadly strike here as 28 to 9  is 16 damage and the Werewolf has 11, thanks to Sigurd last round,
Blackwulf takes it head clean off….


Sigurd – our investigator for this mission moves to the Inns Kitchen to examine the clues there



Roll (6) You find a living, but very scared, little girl hiding under a bed. Treat the girl as a companion for the rest of the scenario. She has the civilian stats, except she has a total Health of 6.

COMPANION PHASE

Gord gets to attack the Giant fly again (2,9) he loses but doesn’t take any damage

Orla seeing Gord in distress leaves the Inn and aids him engaging the Fly, she attacks +3 with Gords support vs the fly at no bonus (3,15) ugh this fly is an SOB, Orla is stung taking 4 damage
Giant flies were quite the nusiance, but easier to deal with than grim wolves!

Old Man feeling the need to get involved and start smashing at the fly with book about werewolves hes carrying around muttering about (14,11) and of course he hits and kills it with 8 damage!
The Little Boy goes up and starts poking the dead fly,

The Little Girl moves for the Ktichen to the front of the Inn to  join the others

Covin , Nicolan and Seb all head up stairs each moving to a different room

Covin find a clue in the first room.

Runes Roll (TN8). If successful, the figure spots a pair of boots with strange embroidered
runes. These are a pair of Boots of Soft Tread. They may be worn by the figure, if it has an
item slot available. Alternatively, they may be given to any ranger or companion after the
scenario.

Covin read runes (2) argh,   INVESTIGATION SCORE now 9!!!


Nicolan finds an empty room with nothing of note

the figure finds a large silver dagger. The figure can use this dagger in place of its normal
weapons for the rest of the scenario, even if it has no item slots available, and doesn’t

and can normally use a dagger.

Seb Armory (9) pass finds Silver Dagger

INVESTIGATION SCORE  13, COVIN IMMEDIATELY TURNS INTO A WEREWOLF
Covin turns into a Werewolf.


EVENT PHASE

RED KING (of course it is!)

For a moment, the moon seems to turn a deep crimson colour. Next turn, all grim
wolves and werewolves receive +1 Fight.


TURN 8

RANGER PHASE

I only activate Blackwulf in the ranger phase he is unaware of whats going on upstairs and decides to check the Inns storeroom

CREATURE PHASE
Werewolf Covin moves to attack Nicolan who is the Closet in the Next Room, Nicolan surprised starts screaming.
The beast attacks +5 vs +3 (9,8)    Nico loses by one but the Werewolf is +2 damage  for 16 total , Nicolan takes 5 damage
But he was already down 4 so he has 3 health left!



COMPANION PHASE

Seb, hearing the screams move into the next room and joins the combat, hes found a Silver Dagger and he will use it for the +2 fight making him +7 vs the Werewolfs +5 with Nicolans support..(17,6 ) oofff, well that will do it….

Seb back stabs the Wolf  for +2 damage with a total of 26!! – minus his 12 armor that 14 damage the Wolf lives with 4 and Keeps fighting

Sigurd – makes a double move upstairs but cant quite get into the fight…
Nicolan goes down hard and the hands of his friend and now werewolf, Covin, he's lucky to have survived.

The remain group is now outside the Inn waiting for orders.


EVENT PHASE


RED 8

A giant fly explodes out of the corpse of an animal nearby. Randomly select one
heroic figure. This figure should make a Move Roll (TN16). If successful, place the
giant fly anywhere up to 3” away from this figure. If the roll is failed, place the giant
fly in combat with the heroic figure.

Again with this this time its Orla and see fails the Move roll so shes engaged by another Giant Fly!!


TURN 9

RANGER PHASE

Blackwulf activates both Gord and Skuti this phase

Gord engages Giant Fly on Oral  , with her support hes +4 vs +0 (9,3) he wins with a 13, enough to cut that fly in two with knife for 7 damage

Nicolan falls taking a brutal 12 damage he is thrown against the wall, (Lycanthopy Will Check TN 8 Roll- 8, pass)


Now the Werewolf is still engaged with Seb , however it has a second action, Since it is actually Covin, I say to myself "is this really an evil creature?" NO I decide, he just infected so  I am bypassing the Evil creatures always choose to stay in combat rule and I have Covin push Seb 1’inch away and use his second action to jump out the window onto the roof so it can regenerate and hopefully get himself a few more victims!

COMPANION PHASE

Seb is going to try to make follow The werewolf out on the roof he need to make a climb check (TN10) failure means he slides off the roof and takes falling damage  Seb goes for it at +0 (13) and makes it…he reengages the Werewolf on the roof, but it take both moves so he wont fight this phase

Skuti has one move he can hear the racket on the roof but can not see as it on the backside of the roof peak , he moves 6 inches to get a view  and is out of actions

Epilogue

“With the werewolves slain and the remaining survivors rescued,  Blackwulf and his men move off into the night to finish their mission promising to send aid to help reinforce the village, friendships are made and Seb, Orla and Nicolan offer themselves as future companions. For now the Garrison must be rebuilt so the refugees return and Inn recover back to its former glory as a welcome area respite for travelers , Seb keeps his axe ready as his eyes are sharp as Grim Wolves still haunt the local woods.”

Pretty great 1st solo run thru for Bloodmoon,  started out a bit easy with so many characters, and the 1st werewolf going down so easily, then things went crazy at the end of Turn 7, a third werewolf or worse event draws with more Grim Wolves would make this a lot harder..looking forward to doing it again with  3 low level Rangers, that campaign will start up soon

Rangers of Shadow Deep, Mission: Bloodmoon. Part 1




With the preliminaries out of the way with the last post, lets get right to it…

Blackwulf’s Report- “Several weeks since our return from the Shadow Deep , and the Convent of St Emilia,  we’ve  rested and recuperated  here at Tor Varden .  I’ve dismissed some of the company to go ahead and take up their own agendas, Thorvald is helping our old friend Leofric  
Train new recruits , while Xavos and Oleandra left some days ago  with the Knight Calistra  to return the recovered decanter to the King in the City of Tallis   This morning , I’ve  been given the simple task of delivering orders to  army unit camped on the northern end of the Shadow Deep.  I’m told the unit commander is in need of our services as well and will only discuss the issue in person.  The four of us head out in the morning , we must travel fast  and on foot to stay unnoticed  and if we travel well into the night we should be there in 3 days time.  The moon is full tonight, may it speed our way thru the darkness.

We’ve stumbled upon a group of auxiliaries, huddled  around a campfire.  They say they are all that’s left of a small garrison from the nearby Village of High Rock. They say a pair of Werewolves tore thru the Village and the killed the rest of the garrison. Outmatched they fled with a few survivors, who traveled on while they’ve waited here to see any others survived. There might still be other survivors; the beasts were last seen headed toward the Village Inn.  They’ve asked for our aid and that with our help we mount a counter attack and slay these beasts.  We are on a deadline but I have no choice but to honor this request, we move toward High Rock now.

Pre Game Notes:

Blackwulf is level 8 we are using the harder event deck for Levels 6-10 ,  Blackwulf has 125 recruitment points and can use .7 x for this mission companions with 87.5 RP he has plenty of room for his three comrades.  He also gets the 4 Auxiliary Companions who have led us to the Village.
Now the twist here is one of these 4 companions is also the second werewolf but we don’t know that nor do we know which as the game unfolds our actions, clues and die rolls will determine which of these 4 will go  Werewolf on us at a certain point. The event deck is 13 Cards
I playing the mission as written with the exception of the manor house becoming an Inn and increasing the difficulty where noted.

House  rules – Just the he standard “Russian Roulette” I use for this campaign . Russian Roulette  is just a negative modifier to survival roll post game should a character be knock out of action, that modifier is number of times the character has been knocked out of action in the entire campaign (Thorvald, not playing here is sitting on a big -5 meaning  his number is eventually going to come up should he keep adventuring) the players here are at worst -1 so I am not expecting a  death should someone fall here but you never know!

Ranger Sheet


Companion Sheet


Auxiliary Companion Sheet and Backstories


MAP



“Following the lead of the four auxiliaries, you move quietly over the rocky hill, and look down upon the dark village and looming two story Inn. Everything is shadows and gloom. For a moment, nothing seems to stir, no wind, no life. Slowly, though, as you study the darkness, you see movement near the manor house and decide to investigate.”

Special Rules
This whole scenario takes place at night, and while the full moon is out, it is still dark. The maximum lineof sight for this scenario is 14”.Other Special rules will be discussed as they come up during play.
There is No Target point in this scenario.
No turn limit - The scenario continues until two werewolves have been killed, or all of the rangers and companions have been reduced to 0 Health. The game also ends immediately if only auxiliary companions remain on the table and the second werewolf has not been revealed.
and as always:
All die rolls are shown as (x) all combat rolls are (x,x) with the Heroes roll always being first.

TURN 1

RANGER PHASE

Facing the large pond  and considering we have such a big group Blackwulf decides to break the team into two groups. Sigurd and Skuti will lead Covin and Nicolan while  he and Gord will take Seb and Orla.  There are to circle the pond and meet at the Inn door.  Auxillary Companions cannot activate in the Ranger Phase so Blackwulf activates Gord and Skuti


Gord-   heads for the Pond , it’s a nice night for a swim he thinks to himself as hes been on a forced march for the 2 days , the pond is deep water as he wades in., Gord first action is to move to the lake with move 7" he is in the water , the water is deep so he must make a swim check TN 5, with a -2 penalty for light Armor so TN 7 (roll 14) he swims to boat and climbs in as a free action,. And we roll for our first clue!

(Roll 18)  You find the body of a dog. Its jaws are filled with long red hairs. Increase Investigation
Score by 1 (Orla).




Skuti- moves once to scout toward the woods he sees nothing  and continues…after the second move he stops dead in his tracks as he sees the glistening teeth of a large wolf sneering at his from the woods!

Blackwulf moves 6 inches he spies movement in the pen outside the stable entrance a second look reveals it to be a Giant Fly he quick fires an Arrow (2,12) but it misses and hits the stable wall.

CREATURE PHASE
NO CREATURES MOVE TURN 1 (special rule)

COMPANION PHASE
Seb- Follows Blackwulf Holds
Orla Follows Blackwulf, sees same Giant Fly also fires an arrow (3,18) Miss.
Sigurd, Covin and Nicolan all double move to catch up with Skuti

EVENT PHASE
RED 6
A pair of swamp zombies crawl up out of the pond. If there are any heroic figures in
the pond, or in the boat, place both zombies in combat with a heroic figure. If there
are no heroic figures in the pond or boat, place the zombies adjacent to the pond at
the point closest to a heroic figure.
Gord: Uh Guys!!!!  Poor Gord…


INVESTIGATION SCORE: 1

TURN 2

RANGER PHASE

Well that’s and interesting turn of events, Now we have to try to save Gord, Blackwulf activates Gord and Skuti once again .

Blackwulf- Hearing Gord’s yell he see the Zombies and turns and Fires an Arrow  its +2 vs +0 (8.19) darkness or luck has our hero failing badly.. Blackwulf then wades into the pond  because this is going to get into hand to hand ,because he crossing into water (aka rough ground_ he can’t quite reach combat

Skuti- has to move for clear shot.. he does and fires and arrow, he is +3 vs +0 (4,2) he hits but its but if fails to strike a vital area ( 7 wont come close to damaging the zombie  at armor 12)

Gord- takes his lucky dagger and sticks in the face of one of zombies, hes flanked so its  and even roll +2 vs +2 , lets hope his knife lives up to name..(20,13!!) and it does (funny how this routinely happens to this guy its some sort narrative effected dice karma)  a dagger is still -1 damage so 21 against 12 armor is 9  than a +5 for the critical hit..more that enough to put a Swamp Zombie down at 6 health

Gord – “Do I have to everything by myself.?”


CREATURE PHASE

Thing get real here as all creatures on the board outside the Inn, have line of sight on the heroes
4 Giant Flies, 3 Giant Rats, 1 Grim Wolves all activate this phase plus of course the Zombie in combat with Gord
So according to their health (Evil Creature Actions) the Activation order is:
Grim Wolf
Swamp Zombie
Giant Flies
Giant Rats

Grim Wolf- The Grim Wolf has a move of 8 , its 9” away from both Sigurd and Skuti, I flip and coin and its Sigurd who gets engaged..but the Wolf wont fight this phase.

Swamp Zombie attacks Gord..since Gord is in the boat he facing no penalties so +0 Zombie, +2 Gord (7,7) Gord wins no damage as the 9 wont effect Armor 12,  but he will push that Zombie 1 inch back freeing from the Combat!

Giant Flies-  The Flies join the fight zipping from the Pen in front of Stable and  using both actions to move toward the closest heros -Blackwulf, who’s swimming the pond and Gord in the Boat, the each are engaged by 2 flies….NOT GOOD,


Giant Rats – scurry out from underneath the wagon looking for food, they rush Skuti the nearest here 2 of the 3 can engage but none with fight this phase


COMPANION PHASE

Nicolan-  Quickly moves to the Grim Wolves flank and attacks…with SIgurd already in the Fight he is +5 , vs the Wolfs +3 (8,6) or 13 to 9 Nicolan Stikes a blow for 3 damage to the Wolf.


Covin, Joins the fray as well, and the Wolf is far more dangerous than the rats.. With Sigurd and Nicolan Supporting Covin is now +6 vs +3 (20,5)  an second Critical, Covin’s blade is true, the wolf outmatched takes a mighty 21 damage…
And it dies silently not even knowing the former Soldier hit it.

Sigurd now  free on engaged moves into one of the rats attacking Skuti he attacks at +4 to +0 (2,3) winning with a 6 he doesn’t kill it but he kicks it back and inch of himself and Skuti..


Orla decided to try to pick off the disengaged Swamp Zombie she moves 5 inches and Fires and Arrow its +2 vs +1 for the Zombie since she moved and it’s a hurried shot..(9,10) or 11, 11 tie in ranged combat that’s just miss.

Seb wades into the lake and peels one of the Giant Flies off of Blackwulf, he wildly swings his huge Axe +3 vs +0 (1,11) missing horribly he gets himself stung for 1 point of damage, Seb needs to make a disease check at TN8, but passes it easily with (10) +10 health for a 20.



EVENT PHASE

RED 2

Place a werewolf in Room B in the corner opposite the treasure token. If a werewolf
has already been placed due to a random event, place a grim wolf instead
