Here my second Solo Battle Report, this time using my first real PA league (Baker Expedition) while the bot league is done with some old painted fantasy miniatures.
More pictures will be included in each new post.
Background: spring 1938, somewhere in central Italy.
Lord Baker and her daughter are exploring the mysterious catacombs of a XV century castle.
The ancient owner of the castle was a beautiful countess. The legend tells that the countess sold her soul to the devil for gain the eternal youth.
The Vatican destroyed the castle centuries ago, but now seem that some strange ghosts are wandering in the ruins (the victims of the countess?).
The vatican sent a witchunter team to investigate but nobody returned.
Now is the turn of the Bakers.
Major plot: the tomb (prison) of the countesss to seal
Minor plots: two wandering ghosts, waiting to find peace
Minor plot: Witchhunter Giacobbe, injured, waiting for the adventurers to give them his exorcist book so they can seal the tomb, then he dies.
When all minor plots are taken, the countess awakens (thanks to a necromancer: Friendly local in 1d10) and is ready to fight personally the intruders.

Richard and her daughter move, they choice to divide and go for the two minor plots: the wandering ghosts.
Meanwhile, the necromancer (Friendly local) and the Ghoul King are guarding the tomb of their queen.
The zombies, skeletons and ghouls move.
However, the skeletons are unlucky and fail the challenge of the perilous area (giant rats) and ironically are killed (again).
What a pitiful end for them! :-X

1) Lord Baker take the first minor plot: the wandering ghost finally rest in peace.
Ghost "Aveeeeeeeeeeeeenge meeeeeee!" :'( and vanished
2) Laura failed the first attempt to jump the wall, she try again in the new turn and finally overcomes the obstacle.
Laura "Ouch! I'm slipping!" :-X
3) The ghoul try to overcome the rat swarm but fail the challenge with an incredibly unlucky roll of the dice, four 1! However no injuries.
Ghoul "Damned rats! >:(
-

Yikes, it doesn't get any unluckier than that! ;D ;D

1) Laura take the second minor plot, another wandering ghost is finally free
Laura "Rest in peace, I will avenge you" :'(
2/3) Lord Baker won the challenge and climb the wall, now he is near the injured witchunter.
The ghoul decides that's better to avoid the rats and join with the other undead.
3/4) Laura is moving and is near the bat swarm (perilous area).
5) Meanwhile, the undeads are ready to welcome the intruders, trying to hide themselves and ambush our proud adventurers.

2) Finally the countess arise from her tomb, the seal is broken and she is free.
Vampirella "Mhhh... I'm aliveeee... again" :)
3) Laura won the challenge of the perilous area (bat swarm)

4/5) Now she is ready to shoot to the countess (with Special bullets, of course), but the vampire dodge all her shots!
Vampirella "How you dare mortal?! >:(

Well, here I've done a big mistake, dropping the health dice of injured characters for each hit not saved from the same shoot or brawl :(
Despite my mistake the countess recovered each time she was down! Never surrender to the KO. Impressive.
The countess rush Laura, but Laura shoot and she is down! The Ghoul is down too and will not recover.
(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c231/MatteoC78/P1010099_zpscb743840.jpg)

Laura "Urghhh, The cover of the sarcophagus is too heavy!"
(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c231/MatteoC78/P1010102_zps553e486e.jpg)
Laura try again to win the major plot, but she lost again the challenge!
Laura "Damn! This tomb is sealed! Dad! I need your Help her!... WOW! Seem that the old hag is recovering, and I don't like the bad look of the fat big guy coming for me too..." :-X
(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c231/MatteoC78/P1010107_zps853afaa2.jpg)

Laura is in trouble, she is injuried (only d6 of health) and the countess, seem unstoppable.
She try to retreat but again she is rushed from the Countess.
Vampirella "Have you some problems little girl? Maybe I will not kill you, my child. You are a beauty and I respect it.
You will be my vampire thrall. Rejoice my slave, you will be young and beautiful forever!" lol
(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c231/MatteoC78/P1010111_zpsab840f77.jpg)
Lord Baker is in trouble too, the Ghoul King rush him.
Ghoul King: "Ahhhh... Fresh MEAT!" ;D
Fortunatelly he shoot to him and the ghoul is finally dead meat.
(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c231/MatteoC78/P1010114_zps0ad9920a.jpg)
Laura flee from the brawl and join her father. They are now ready to shoot to the countess.
She move to them, and seem that the shoots are ineffective!
Lord Baker: "By JOVE, She is unrestrainable!" :o
Laura: "Continue to shoot, Dad!" >:(
(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c231/MatteoC78/P1010118_zps243da820.jpg)
Finally the countess rush both father and daughter in an hard brawl.
Vampirella: "You will be a good zombie, old man... but your beautiful daughter... oh, she will be my sweet pet!"
(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c231/MatteoC78/P1010120_zps909d0a26.jpg)
After a long and hard fight, the countess seem finally dowm, but the adventures are tired and with many injuries.
Laura "She is finally down! ...but I need a doctor... Are you fine dad?" :?
Lord Baker "I'm still alive, and this is fine... but I think I've forgot something..." ???
Vampirella is really defeated? The tomb is not yet sealed after all >:D
(http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c231/MatteoC78/P1010122_zps8a6bb5bc.jpg)
The scenario should finish after the 6 turn, but I decided to continue until the end.
Countless turns passed and the countess don't go down! So I decided to stop there, with her down but saved from the recovery check >:D

Looks like she is having quite a comfy lie-down in that last picture, with her hands under her head and all!
Fun game report, thanks.
