Scouring of the Shire Campaign: part II

 We continued our Scouring of the Shire campaign over the last few months. I forgot to post an update and even to take a single picture of one of the games. So far evil had an advantage winning 2 games and a draw out of the 4 games in total.


Game 5: The mayor's arrest

The hobbits took their advantage by hurling rocks at the ruffians. A decimated ruffian force charged the hobbits but they were to few in numbers to intercept Will. A good victory!

Good 2 - 2 evil


The death of Lotho

A short game, the ruffians charged and took the advantage in the first few turns. Lotho seeing things go ill charged a ruffians which killed him outright. A draw!

Good 2 - 2 evil


The burning of Woody End

A lovely scenario and exciting till the last roll. One of the most balanced scenarios so far. Ruffians charges all across the board. The hobbits put on a fierce resistance reducing the ruffians in numbers.

In the first four turns already three buildings catched fire but the hobbits waited their time. They managed to succesfully put out one fire and keep defending a single house. On turn nine their luck sadly ran out and the last two building catched fire. Turn ten they also lost priority and the last few hobbits where charged leaving Woody End being burned to the ground

Good 2 - 3 evil



Uprooting of Bagshot Row

The hobbits started running towards the ruffians. The ruffians simply started picking them off with bowfire. In combat they overwhelmed the hobbit and won an easy game.

Good 2 - 4 evil



Arrest of Folco Boffin

Eight hobbits and Folco against the two sherriff heroes and another 12 sherriffs. There never was much hope, only a fools hope. Folco started running and almost saw a gap he could cross. But a heroic march and an heroic move in favor of the sherriffs ended his ambition. 

Good 2 - 5 evil
