We played a two game mini campaign with my son. I was playing the Spanish and my son the Ottoman faction.
First both factions were trying to recover a ring from a cave by searching corpse piles. The bad thing was that the cave was a home to a terrible monster, so both teams had to act quick and silently.
El Capitan got lucky and found the ring from the second corpse pile. Then it was a race to get of board before the Ottomans would close in. The first game ended with a marginal Spanish victory. El Capitan managed to escape, but had to leave the rest of the team behind to the mercy of the monster and the Ottomans. Which ever is worse.
The second game was an ambush. The Spanish were trying to send the ring to their masters by a carrier pigeon. The Ottomans had planned an ambush to get the ring.
Again it was a close call. The Spanish managed to send the ring, but were almost slaughtered to a man. Only Sancho Pancha was clever enough to survive. His attempts to beg for mercy succeeded stunningly well. Then the cunning little man surprised and clubbed down while laying prone the only opponent that saw trough his pleads of mercy and escaped to the alleys just before the city guards came to arrest the rest of the Ottomans.
Both games were fun. They could have gone either way. The conclusions came on the last rounds. There was a little of rulebook reading during the game, but much less in the second game. There were lot's of cool duels and surprises on both sides. Can't wait to play more.
