The Sunken City of Arrgghh

Post by Apollyon » Mon May 16, 2011 8:54 am

Bloody battle was met at the Sunken City of Arrghh when Briktopians and Akkadians were looking for precious artifakts.

So i had another Brikwar with a nerdy friend of mine! Due to time constraints and lazyness on my part we just grabbed what was available, never cared about sophisticated contructions and proceeded to not waste time by using the QuickWars ruleset.

tldr: Here are the bloody pics

Image

The setup with the Sunken City's ruins in the middle of the table. The objective was to search the ruined buildings for some unnamed artifakts. The ruins were guarded by npcs...

Image


Akkadians on the move. They brought two fully sentient Killbots.

Image

Guardian attack roll: 6 (+6+4) Briktopian armor roll: ridiculous

Image

Killbot attacks...

Image

...and makes the first kill.

Image

Here the Akkadians shot the truck's minigun off rendering it useless.

Image

Killbot and troops turn their attention toward the actual guardian.

Image

Mirduk (red caped) and yet unnamed people disembark the truck.

Image

Crocodile munches on my trooper. The beast's hunger turned out to be voracious.

:twss:


Image

I think Mirduk tried to heroically throw the minigun at the Killbot but he failed.

Image

Next turn or so he managed to beamsaber it to pieces :boss:

Image

Oh look who was in the armored car!
...and got shot off the desk by a killbot next turn.
At this point the batteries on my camera died so next up are photos taken by a mobile phone. Since my friend started taking them parallel to mine they may not be altogether chronological.

Image

I do not think this needs a caption.

Image

Another shot with that particular Killbot still alive.

Image

Akkadian troopers and the other Killbot were hammering the armored car well.

Image

The cuthullian guardian in the middle was granted heroic feats btw

Image

Akkadians find the first artifakt!


Image

Poor car.

Image

A classic confrontation already.


Image

I think he was just posing here.

Image

Did i mention the blue fish guy was granted feats? Well he killed my hero AND zombified one of my men. Great.

Image

Will they manage to kill the guardian and the cursed crocodile? No....

Image

Akkadian troopers let the Killbot deal with that Briktopian.

Image

After all but one of my men had been killed the bot started some sort of victory dance.

Image

Last but not least they found the second artifakt, too.

Image

This is back when they found the first one. Dunno what it is doing here.

Image

Final shot. As you can see the damned crocodile ate six(!) of my troopers as well as the Akkadian commander.

So that's it. It was fun to play. If you ever play QuickWars: put dudes with close combat weapons on steeds and you will be unstoppable!

I was rooting for the crocodiles. Great battle!
