Frostgrave - "With Magnetic Force"

  This was a fun scenario - another one from the "Frostgrave Folio" book... in the rules for "With Magnetic Force" every time a 19 or 20 is rolled, a giant magnet is switched on or off,  making all shooting  and spell casting a lot harder, and moving all treasures in a random direction... before the game we decided that we would change this to all rolls of 16+ for more chance of crazy magnetic chaos!!

  We used Ulterior Motive cards again, coincidentally this time we both had secret objectives that involved runic stones...

  The game lasted around 5 - 6 turns... we managed to get 3 treasure tokens each. A group of zombies turned up and kept Lizzy's team busy trying to shoot at them whilst being hindered by the magnetic force, meanwhile my apprentice made it to my runic stone to copy down a magic spell of Demon Summoning onto a scroll...
  Lizzy's apprentice and a small group of bodyguards looked like they were heading towards the other runic stone - so my bear and some of my guys ran over to intercept them. The bear got there first, and was rudely killed by Lizzy's barbarian.... a scuffle then ensued, leaving my apprentice with 1 health point, but Lizzy's apprentice managed to get to her stone of Power, and managed to cast a spell,  fulfilling her objective just before the final treasure token was scurried off the table by a treasure hunter ending the game.
 
  The only casualty this time was my bear (again!). My apprentice survived by the skin of his teeth, this means he got to keep the scroll of demon summoning to use in a future game... We both got some nice treasures... and both our wizards are now around level 30...

   It's "The Pits of Null" next.... and then we're thinking of starting the "Thaw of the Lich Lord" campaign with brand new wizards!

The set up...



Here come the zombies...
