Title: Kiss of the Vampire - a Gothic Horror AAR
Post by: Malamute on March 22, 2018, 06:09:50 PM
THE KISS OF THE VAMPIRE. (2018  A Malamute/De'Ath/Oshiro Production)

VOICEOVER:

"High in the Carpathian mountains lies the remote village of Karlsbad whose residents lie in perpetual fear of the creatures of the night...."


(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318183550-320151008.jpeg)

"And tonight there is reason to be afraid when the Vampires come out in search of blood..."

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318183552-32018522.jpeg)

Those that are foolish enough to leave their homes after dark are easy prey for the Nosferatu...

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318183658-320221604.jpeg)

Especially the young and beautiful. Who can resist the kiss of Vampire?

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318183658-320242429.jpeg)

But who are these brave souls moving silently through the woods towards the village?

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318183552-3201749.jpeg)

And on the other side of the village more strangers appear....

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318183551-32016414.jpeg)

The Vampire Lord pre-occupied with feasting on the blood of the innocent is quickly set upon by foreign ruffians.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318183658-320232241.jpeg)

The lord dispatches one with ease, snapping his neck like a twig, but the tall one is harder to kill. A fledgling Vampiress obeys her masters will and joins the fight.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318184006-32028535.jpeg)

The Forces of good, creep closer towards the furious fight that is developing.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318183553-320191991.jpeg)

Unable to bring the Vampire Master down the Vampire hunters send in their dogs, these are soon dead, but still the Lord and the big ruffian are locked in combat.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318184006-320251614.jpeg)

The Vampires are all cornered and set upon, each one killed in the most gruesome fashion...

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318184006-320271198.jpeg)

When only the Master remains, a brave Vampire Hunter equipped with stake and cross sets about finishing the horrible task...

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318183658-320201713.jpeg)

Recoiling from the power of the cross the Vampire is defenseless and the hunter seizes the opportunity and plunges the stake through the Vampires heart. Within seconds his body has crumpled to dust...

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/32/86-220318183658-320211650.jpeg)

"At last with the great evil vanquished the villagers can sleep safely in their beds..."


THE END...

But who were those strange foreign ruffians and what were they doing Transylvania....?

Another fun night of gaming a Fistful of Garlic - our homage to the great Hammer films of old and Gothic Horror literature. More next week. ;D

What he’s neglected to tell you is why his leader is absent from the roll call at the end of each game.  ;) lol

But he doesn't know the meaning of fear. Literally. It's from having his brains bashed in so often.

These sorts of games are the reason I’m still interested in wargaming, some 50 years after getting my first Airfix figures and making “pew pew” noises with them on the carpet...

Lovely terrain, nicely painted figures, fun scenarios and good mates having a great time together. Thanks for sharing and inspiring us to keep wading through our current lead mountains.

We’ve adapted Jay’s Wild West Rules A Fistful of Lead for Gothic Horror Games. If there is sufficient interest he may publish them in due course ;)

Oh, it's gonna happen. I just have to get the Fistful of Lead: Galactic Heroes Kickstarter out by September.
Malamute and his fellow players have done an excellent job of adoption the rules. Enough that I included some parts for GH.

They are being playtested at the moment and should be published early in 2019. :)

Thanks for posting this, good tabletop and nice looking figures.
Champion work!
Seems female Vampires aren’t much chop though, I’ll remember that if ever I get involved in a melee with a gang of Vampires...

I also really enjoyed this. The fun really seeps through the way you've recapped it. Thanks for taking to time to stop and photograph for all of us :)
