Bob Finally does Silver Bayonet
For Gerry, a lets play Part 4
The U.S. Marine realising the do doo they were in, as non of his party had either enchanted or blessed weapons., used his and the two other musket armed to shoot at tbe visible Skeletal warriors. He also got tbe Rifleman to take a shot at Bill, despite tbe green mist and cover hampering his shot.
The result was one detroyed warrior and one with a limp, who sas finished of by the 2nd part of the party led by O’Shea. Unfortunately the shot he wanted on Bill missed, Bill siselyb ducked into cover.
The Prussian Tactician moved his group of four towards the clue markers , dispatching thecfinal skeletal warrior they could see as they advsnced.
Somehow realising the trouble he was in ( possibly the look of horror on his opponents face) , rushed foward to his clue marker before tbe spawn of hell could get him and opened two, His 1st( The Soldier) found a charmed ring and his 2nd ( by shear luck his Swordsman) found what hey believed to be the magical weapon they had been searching for, the enchanted sword ( which gave him a chance against tbe beasties about to descend on him)
The bad news was this revealed the Big bad, the monster, which luckily appeared closer to tbe Americans.
O’Shea decided to bite the bullet and admit defeat at bis point, with various Monsters and Prussians in Front of him and his prize, and began to withdraw from the area, his troops putting down odd shots on anything that got too close.
Meanwhile , the hapless Prussian Doctor and Swordsman were attacked by the Ghost and Black Dog respectively, with Doctor being wounded and completely paralysed in fear. The Swordsman being of sterners stuff. took his nasty wound and managed to damage the beast.
Meanwhile tbe Tacticisn used the time whilst everytone was occupied to examine another grave clue only to have another ghost materialise above him.
Von Pockets, decided it was also time to withdraw, ordering the rest if his party to fall back, whilst he charged in with the soldier to rescue the Doctor and Swordsman, grabing the magical sword from his wounded compatriot, he killed the Black Dog with one mightyblow. The Soldier was unable to rescue the now envoloped Doctor wbo collapsed from his wounds..
Reluctantly Von Pockets fell back as more Remanents, Skeletal warriors and the 2nd Ghost moved towards the Doctors position,h needed to secure their Prize for the Fatherland, plus he risked further casualties.
So it was over, in the light of Day , the Prussian party returned, to the battles site to retrieve what they believed was their fallen Doctor, to happily find hin still alive and merely unconstous from his ordeal the night before.
Apologies for the late finish for this lets play, but since Sept it has gone from sublime to ridicoulous. One games day a month has gone to one a week, sometimes 2 , plus no shows to 2 under belt ( Including nice catch up with OTT Ben) and two more over next weekend.
