Frostgrave - First actual game!

 Warband - check!... Scenery - check!... A substantial amount of monsters and creatures to randomly appear on the table and cause havoc - check!... an opponent also with a painted warband ready to duel over the scattered magical remnants of the frozen city - check!

At last - it was time to have our first FROSTGRAVE battle... I had a Warband with an Orc Witch as my Wizard, who managed to summon a Bear to accompany him and his merry band of Orc and Goblin cronies... Lizzy my opponent had a Human Enchanter with a bunch of swarthy Dwarves.

This was a basic learning game, neither of us had played before, so we were getting to grips with the turn structure and game mechanics, but it was good fun! We didn't end up with any wandering monsters, I only managed to get one of the treasure tokens off the board, Lizzy got the other 5.... we're going to carry on in a loose campaign format so we can level up our wizards, improve and learn our spells and get some crazy magical items...

Next game we're going to play one of the scenarios from the book which guarantees some wandering monster action...
