vjoe playtest report, lots of pics

I playtested a map I had set up.

Scenario - Free Drake from NGS' torture chamber
At the beginning of every round, NGS gets to roll a D20 to see if he can mindshackle drake.
Drake join the rescuer when a rescuer is adjacent to him.

1. The rescue team ~450pts
Finn, Thorgrim, Raelin, Sylvaris
Knights and Viking


2. The opponent ~ 250pts
Grimnak, swog rider, blade and arrow grut, Dumutef
NGS trying to break Drake in his stronghold (not counted in points)


3. Dumutef guarding the road


4. Finn took out Dumutef


5. The Lily Pounce special attack!


6. troops setting up


7. attack on Grimnak


8. Orcs swarmed and took out Finn and Vikings, Sylvaris retreat


9. at this point, the Orcs should have retreated to high ground!!
But they are pretty dumb and pressed the attack and Chompy took out
Sylvaris


10. Chompy took some hits, but retreated without dying


11. Thorgrim got initiative and took out Chompy


12. Orcs are in trouble without Chompy, one blade grut left. Knights press the attack


13. Arrow gruts retreated and managed to take down Throgrim, only one arrow grut left.


14. Knights took out the last blade grut.


15. arrow grut and swog rider managed to take down a knight each, but Raelin flew up and took out the last arrow grut.


16. swog rider finally succumbed to the last knight and Raelin.


17. NGS kept trying to mind shackle Drake unsuccessfully and was taken down.


The orcs actually did pretty well, should have stayed on high ground though.

Amazing. So how many rolls (rounds) did NGS get to make?

With Realin and the defense of the Knights with the Tarns, it's interesting only 1 knight survived!

Fun scenario. Thanks for sharing.

NGS

NGS rolled about 6-8 times, not sure. When Drake got away, he should have 3 rolls every round though, forgot to do that.

Obviously if Drake got mindshackle at anypoint, the game swing wildly in favor of NGS and the Orcs.

reapersaurus is a puppet of Ne-Gok-Sa
why was the one team figured to have such a situational advantage that they only get 250 points, when the other team got 450?

The objective for the 250pt team was to hold out long enough for NGS to mindshackle Drake so I gave them only a few points. That's all the Orcs I have anyway.
They had highground to start with. If NGS mind shackled Drake then the Orc army points will have jumped up to around 450.


Well, it was just a test. I'd probably go for 300 vs 400 in a real game with no hostage.

Also this game me the Shadow clone idea - see my repaints in the custom unit area. NGS needs more chances to mindshackle.

Was this map built on the fly, or did you LandScape it first and then build it?

And if it is LandScaped, do you have a PDF file available for download?

cool report. though NGS & orcs should have had more pionts. 250 vs 450 cmon. if that was all the orcs then give the others less pionts. either way it was interesting.
