Mordante

That banner will be part of my list regardless of who or what I'm playing.

OK, sounds good.

Anyone want a 2500 pt game this weekend?  Still want to try a few more games with the Battle By The Bay II scenarios to see what other tweeks we need to make.  I'm also enjoying playing the new high elves so want to test out another list.

I realize I put Sunday in the title and asked about Thursday.  No wonder I got no takers for Thursday.  OK, so how about this sunday?  I realize the regular Wargods crowd may be at a convention this weekend...

Oh, and some of you may have seen the press release by Spartan games saying that Uncharted Seas will not be distributed any longer through stores, only thru mail order.  I've been in contact with Spartan and they assure their community that the game is not going away.  In fact, there is company supported beta testing going on for added rules for things like magic, campaign system, land skirmishes, etc, that I'm involved with so I can vouch for their statements that their ultimate goal is to keep it alive and to expand via the internet.  Prices for fleet deals and such will likely go down in their on-line store as well.

The DLs were the only ones to ever get there, but they were killed off by a lucky crit on the fortification by Beav's flagship, which rolled up a result that killed crew, then they were finished off by whales.  Hal's shroud mages certainly had the most crew on the trader town but at he last turn, Beav went first, brought in 3 heavy cruisers with LOTS of crew and finished them off.  He had no time to get to the fort, so it ended in a draw.   It was fun to play a game where you could just not care about your ships that much.

The guys on the Spartan forum brought up a few issues - can subs go under the trader town and surface inside?  If so I would say only small ones could (dwarves, not SMs).  If that was allowed, then the orcas could as well.  Maybe another change would be that creatures cannot fight boarding actions against the fortress.  It makes no sense to have whales assaulting the people manning a large stone fortress.  That would also mean dragons could not either, except for any crew manning the guns on top maybe.
