It was a typical day on the fringes of Man's territory. A roving band of Orcs, hoping to pillage a nearby Human settlement, closes in. Word had spread of this, causing alarm among the Wood Elves. Their lands were being used by the foul Orcs and this would not stand. The Orc marauders met the forward elements of an Elven scouting party next to a crossroad.
Game 1:
Players: Ken (Orcs) vs Terry (Elves)
|
The Orc force: A leader, brutes, beast rider, Hobgoblin archers, and warriors. |
|
Elven host: Archers, stud archer, spearmen, leader, and Satyr. |
|
The Hobgoblin gets into range... |
|
...and dies. |

He's a mean one, he is! |
The fight ended with the Orcs losing too many troops and fleeing the table. Evidently longbows, in the hands of skilled archers, are deadly. Who knew?!
Game 2: Terry (Goblins) vs Ted (Elves)
The Goblins were late to the party. They were sent to back-up the Orcs and help with the pillaging. The Elves had been delayed as well. Consisting of duelists, they were ready for a scrum.

I see them, Sir! |
|
Sneaky lil' buggers! |
|
A squad of duelists surround their leader. |

The Dryad hid in the woods and didn't do a thing. |
The game was over fairly quickly. The Goblins lost their leader, making it hard for them to consistently activate. The Sneak Goblins wound up getting stuck in the woods and were thus ineffective. They eventually all ran to fight another day.
