Back at it with Rangers of shadow deep. I have to say, I was underwhelmed by this scenario. But that might be due to the fact that my spiders spawned at one web cocoon and one nest tree. And as always in ROSD, lucky dice rolling helps.
The Ranging Groups starting positions. And towards the top the first two spiders.
Spiders in the distance...
Rogvald, Valerian, and Lukian charge forward with reckless abandon. The spiders instantly charge forward in response
Rogvald, Valerian and Lukian get locked into combat with two spiders
Quintus takes aim at the faraway spiders, and misses. Useless ranged weapons
Varus and Cornelius move up the left flank and search a cocoon. A villager was found within, kidnaped by the spider for god knows how long. Varus found himself tangled in webs for five turns.
Rogvald begins the exterminating but also gets poisoned in the process, and Lukian continues the slaughter.
Gaius searches a web cocoon and finds yet another kidnapped villager. A spider quickly moves in to attack the villager. By some miracle the villager felled the spider in one thrust of his pitchfork.
Quintus searches a webcocoon, and finds a surprise within. ZOMBIE.
As Cornelius made his merry way through the woods, he rescued another villager and then came upon a nest tree. He promptly set the tree ablaze.
Valerian searched the final web cocoon and found....another hapless villager.
Another spider emerged from an unsuspected nest, but was quickly swarmed by all those nearby. If only spider meet tasted good.
A spider returning from the forest to its nest emerged behind the ranging party.
The rest of the party and villagers gathered together in the forest clearing. Safety in numbers.
Valerian easily dismantled the wandering spider.
At this point, all trees were burned for several turns, so I was simply turning an event card over each turn to speed up the game.
