The Battle at the Certhos Pass - Turn 4

Post by Joshua » Tue Dec 14, 2021 11:14 pm

Massive explosions!

Sir Darius' Black Knights - Brikboyz

Image
Sir Darius tries to do a spin attack, but there isn't enough room to execute it.

Image
Nevertheless, he guts two skeletons.

Image
And then hops down to the safety of the shield wall.

Image
The remaining ranged units for the Black Knights climb up the hill and prepare to shoot the first enemy who comes into range.

Image
Everyone else slowly withdraws further away from the enemy.

Orcs/Uruk-hai - Archduke

Image
More reinforcements for the Undead and Orcs have arrived!

Image
With the ranged Black Knights being safely up on the ledge, the orcs decide to attack the shield wall, carefully. However, one still goes down to a counter and the other can't break through his opponent's defenses.

Image
Even the halberdier-wielding orc attacks, making use of his long weapon to be safe from counters. But even he achieves nothing.

Image
The Orc Hero grabs a barrel and throws it at Von Bragallot, stunning him.

Image
But even with the free hit, the Orc can't seem to hurt his enemy.

Image
This ork charges forward, only to have arrows fired at him, killing him.

Image
The orc archer moves up and finds a 'squishy' target.

Image
And brings down a grenadier!

Image
The troll is just barely able to start climbing before running out of movement.

Image
The Uruk-hai all move up.

Von Brag's Black Knights - Scribonius

Image
Von Brag disengages out of combat and starts climbing the cliff. (The Orc Hero's free counter can't overcome his armor.)

Image
Wilhelm then grabs the keg of ale.

Image
And gives it a good heave...

Image

Von Brag: "Now! Quickly! Throw your grenade!"

Image
KA-BOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!!!!!

Image
Four skeletons and the necromancer are caught in the explosion. The stonework barely survives the blast, groaning in protest.

Image
Different view. The explosion also created a fire, blocking off the main entrance into the pass.

Image
Everyone else inches back into the pass.

Undead - Brikskrieg

Image
The Death Knight rides over towards the fallen grenadier.

Image
He dismounts and grabs the grenade.

Image
And prepares to throw it!!!

Image
BOOOOOMMMMM!!!!

Image
Although not dead, the Knight has been reduced to 1HP. His axe was also obliterated by the blast.

Image
A skeleton moves up and takes a stab at a swordsman. He fails to kill, however.

Image
A skeleton shambles over to Von Brag, and due to a massive damage roll, manages to wound to hero! -1HP

Image
The two armored skeletons that survived the explosion start climbing up the hill.

Image
This skeleton makes it's way down into the main area.

Image
This black skeleton successfully reanimates itself, then starts charging towards the enemy. The other black skeleton fails (again) to revive itself.

Image
The necromancer tries to revive a skeleton, but fails. (The other necromancer is too far damaged to revive.)

Image
The rest of the Undead reinforcements move up, with the Elites running right into the fire, relying on their heavy armor to protect them.
