Pssst..  :D

There are further adventures coming.  I’ve got all the terrain built from scratch and almost all the miniatures for Blood Moon painted, but I ordered a single miniature for it and the order was screwed up...so it’s been 4 weeks of waiting.  In that time I also painted all the miniatures for the Burning Light missions.

I’ve been posting all the terrain and minis as they are finished on Facebook.

Also Pre-ordered the deluxe version of the game and have been perusing the PDF.

The order mix up sounds frustrating but at least you have kept yourself busy. I look forward to seeing your report on Blood Moon.

I know it’s been a while since I updated this thread...doesn’t mean I’ve been idle.  Just a quick image of all the miniatures I’ve painted specifically for this game since the thread started...

What’s even more “funny” is that I gave my sister about 200 miniatures I had that I wasn’t going to paint so I wouldn’t have to sell them on eBay...and that doesn’t include the 150 or so I AM already selling on eBay.

I’m trying to only keep stuff I’m going to paint/use.

BLOOD MOON...Where be the monsters!?

The moon was full, the lake was placid, and the horrors from the dark side...were pretty darn wimpy!

In classic dungeon delver tradition, the party split up immediately.  Flewdurr led the right wing, Jane led the left wing, and Rebecca said screw it and swam right up the middle.

All the monsters were quickly dealt with under a volley of arrows, with a couple flies being easily dispatched in a single round of combat.  The bloodthirsty adventurers eagerly awaited more...but hardly any showed their ugly faces, and when they did, they were immediately pincussioned with good rolls (including a crit).

Covin, who had eaten all the rations turned out to be a Werewolf, and was summarily hacked to bits.  When the second werewolf appeared, there was a dogpile...er...wolf pile on him, and he was pushing up daisies before he could tear out any throats.

...and those annoying crotchety old men and bratty welps appeared just in time to give the stalwart heroes some XP.

The “good guys” didn’t take a SINGLE point of damage the entire mission. 😮

I have mixed feelings.  I really enjoyed the prep for the game, loved the idea, had fun playing...but never felt tense or challenged.

Thanks for sharing.

It does sound like the dice gods have blessed you Grubman...maybe you should use some different dice :D

I did roll VERY good the entire game.  I didn’t lose one combat roll (although I did have 1 tie).  On the Facebook page, people have reported having a hard time with the scenario.

I haven’t lost a scenario yet, but there have been a couple real nail biters.  Who would have thought a game would be MORE fun when things go wrong, ha ha.  I think I’m going to replay this one in the future, and I expect the results may be very different.
