Text of the page (random words):
shamysh were able to dispatch him ollum got a few hits on him and aramil s magic missles hit too olaf tells us we should try and get a good night s rest we will need it tomorrow 20 1212 overlooking the valley there is a very ominous looking tower structure down there two side towers and several other buildings scattered about all the buildings are in a state of disrepair we will have to plan our steps carefully olaf is going to wait back at our previous campsite hopefully i ll get to write more later 21 1212 that was a wild ride we all made it thanks to my skillful location of enemies once in the valley we approached cautiously as we maneuvered we were set upon by creatures known as ghouls i ve never seen a dead thing move so fast sir ferrik was able to bless them into oblivion and aramil use a good bit of fire and magic missiles to keep them at bay most of them attacked us with claws and jaws there were several used wicked looking two handed swords these seemed a little bit tougher i was able to sneak around behind them and locate several additional ghouls the guys to take care of once the ghouls were cleared out i was able to locate several skeleton archers in the towers they were a little tougher to deal with sir ferrik and shamysh were able to bless some arrows and set about finding good spots to shoot back i led aramil and ollum up around one of the side towers where we thought we saw an entrance we did find the entrance it just happened to be guarded by two armored skeletons my blade seemed ineffectual ollum s mace on the other hand did a fine job at knocking their blocks off aramil was able to lend a hand with a few more magic missiles it was touch and go so i snuck around the other side of the tower and climbed up to the second floor by the time i got back down inside shamysh and sir ferrik had gotten there and helped ollum finish them off after searching the area we moved up two floors and found the bridge leading to the main tower we carefully approached what used to be the entrance on the other side i was able to sneak in to scout the area out nothing else seemed to be moving ollum had noticed that the stonework appeared to be master craftsmanship better than even some dwarves could do it does lead us to wonder who could have created this place and worse than that who could have destroyed it we worked our way down to the main floor there we found a hatch into a lower level it was pretty dark but all he could see writing on the floor below with torch in hand we dropped down and found magical inscriptions scrawled up on the floor aramil did that magic stuff that he does and before we knew it there was a glowing ring where a secret stone in the floor was located with the help of shamysh s adamantium battle ax we were able to pry it open it was a tight spiral staircase leading down and it was dark nice to know that ollum can see in the dark he was able to scout and let us know that there was an empty chamber at the bottom with doors leading out in opposite directions aramil was able to conjure up a flame that he put on the end of his staff this was able to light the way for the rest of us what was actually at the bottom was a main chamber with a series of rooms to the right and left some with locked doors some with hidden doors and several sarcophagi it felt like the kind of place you would expect to find more dead things we started with the rooms to our right at a dead end ollum noticed stonework with an indentation and it just so happens that i had located a key and a small pool of water in the corner of a nondescript room turns out the indentation was a keyhole inside the secret chamber we found a pedestal containing a small chest once i cleared it for traps we were able to pry it open and found several items of value including an amulet and a ring after heading back to the main chamber we moved in the opposite direction and found a similar setup of rooms but this time there were sarcophagi we left the first one be so we wouldn t make noise in removing the stone lid especially when sir ferrik and ollum both detected evil emanating from the hallway to our left down the hallway to our right at the end of the series of rooms there was a large double door sir ferrik and shamysh were able to muscle it open where we discovered another sarcophagus we decided to try to open this one and attracted the attention of two large cave trolls fortunately the first one was almost wounded by the time the second one arrived it was a team effort to finally slay them once dispatched we were able to get the sarcophagus open and found the remains of a knight ollum stood on the edge of the sarcophagus mace in hand in case the thing might become animated we carefully extracted anything of value and stowed it amongst our gear finally we were back at the other sarcophagus and decided to try quietly removing the stone lid didn t work sir ferrick raised the alarm as a floating billowy black form advanced down the hallway towards us never met a wraith before and i never want to meet one again it was a hard fight a hit paralyzed ollum and shamysh was knocked out of his wits on the other hand aramil s magic struck home and sir ferrick s aura seemed to protect him and his attacks were devastating it died at his sword stroke and it s departing shriek will chill my bones for days sir ferrick and ollum used their healing magic on all of us after feeling better we did find a couple objects of value in the sarcophagus we then cautiously moved down the hall from where the wraith came we discovered it s lair with a few items of interest but still had not found the missing relic in the ante chamber ollum thanks to his keen site of stonework noticed another indentation in the wall sure enough the key i still had opened a second hidden chamber there it was a dais on which sat an ornate box unfortunately there was no apparent way to open it no lock and no hinges using my expert analysis i was able to find the opening mechanism and also a poison trap which i disarmed when the lid popped open we found the holy relic some jewels and a decent amount of coinage aramil encouraged us to vacate the premises 24 1212 we found our way back to camp and reconnected there with olaf he was relieved to see us we rested for an entire day and then headed back to town we were warmly welcomed and given a celebratory feast it was kind of just a small meal anyway rymond was in awe of our success and gave ollum the name of a senior cleric in galmoth who would reward us for the return of their holy relic aramil knows a shop there that can help us identify some of the magical items we cannot figure out all the posh folk took up a collection in thanks of ridding the town of such a terrible place all in all we had a great adventure our names are getting around and at galmoth who knows what could happen posted by battleground hobbies at 9 31 pm no comments email this

march 21 2020 build a dragon rampant halfling army quick and cheap let s build a halfling army for dragon rampant on the cheap we are always looking for inexpensive ways to field an army on any war game table and dragon rampant is a grand game for doing that we ll show you how to get a halfling army on the table for as little as 46 usd wargames atlantic has put out a halfling militia box set that contains 40 yes we said 40 of the brave folk of the shire for only 34 95 plus shipping with it as our starting point we will put together a 24 point dragon rampant army this hard plastic box set allows you to build halfling militiamen equipped with bow sling halberd or pike and with options for full command in dragon rampant a unit of 12 infantry is standard the box set gives you eight sprues with 5 figures each 15 different heads and all the equipment seen here let s start with a unit of archers or light missile troops for some ranged attacks you can build up to 16 but only need to field 12 the robin hood cap and bare head options would do well on these chaps we will add the sharpshooter special rule to give them a better chance of hitting on their rolls next is a core of heavy foot these guys don t attack strong but will give you a solid defensive unit to stay stuck in there are enough options to build plenty of pike spear and halberd wielding halflings and we only need 12 for our army so have plenty to spare for our army we ll use the spear halberds for our heavies getting two on each sprue will make us the quantity we need for our unit sticking with the kettle hat or brimmed helmet will add consistency to the unit next we will take a unit of bellicose foot which will pack a punch on the attack but are considered to have no armor so defense is low we ll use the sword and spear options and use the various skull cap helmets that will give you the third infantry squad for your army with the remaining four models we d make a command unit with our general musician standard bearer and a hero these will be a reduced model unit of elite foot we ll use the sugar loaf helmets on three of them and the crested helm for our general you could mix and match anything you really wanted for this unit lastly we ll add some additional muscle in the form of a lesser war beast northstar military figures rangers of shadows deep line has a sweet ogre for around 10 00 while not inherently evil they have a tendency towards violence and cruelty which makes them extremely susceptible to the corrupting influence of the shadow deep for our purposes we can use the old lion and the mouse fable and assume a nice hobbit pulled a large splinter from his foot and now he works with the halflings there are a lot of other variations you could use like making 6 slingers to use as a unit of scouts another would be to pick up a special general figure like this halfling hero on his pony with three accompanying halflings from copplestone castings for around 11 00 warlord games now offers halfling cavalry in the form of goat riders and heavy pig riders you can get 5 goat riders for 28 00 and a command unit for about 25 00 options are only limited by what you can find out there on the internet so get building something have a great battle the old crow posted by battleground hobbies at 3 12 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels copplestone castings dragon rampant halflings hobbit osprey publishing warlord games tuesday march 3 2020 dragon rampant fantasy war gaming from osprey publishing over the holidays and into the new year we discovered dragon rampant the wonderfully simple fantasy war game from osprey publishing after the last few years of bolt action it was grand breaking out the old fantasy figures and putting them into action the beauty of the game created by daniel mersey is the fact you can use virtually any fantasy figure you have or like his previous game lion rampant is the historical equivalent of the same game the command and control aspect is where the game differs from others it s not as simple as you move enemy moves you move etc you begin by giving a command to one unit and if it passes then you go to another unit and test if it passes your turn continues but the first time you miss a command test then your turn is over you can have a turn where you move every unit in your army just as easily as failing your first test and ending your turn that fast armies are made up of an average of 5 8 units with anywhere from 1 12 figures a basic infantry unit has 12
