Our Warhammer Quest adventure continued with @[email protected] tonight, and it was an abject failure, and my brave dwarven warrior Dagnai is now permanently dead and can't be played anymore. π
We chose to do a Deliverance journey which in hindsight was a bad idea, but we wanted to try to reduce the fear level. From our previous roll at the end of the last game, Radukar the big bad was going to show up as the second hostile group, and right from the very outset he fucked us up. We've seen him a couple of times before but have managed to kill him before he could do too much damage, but the rolling in this game was absolutely atrocious. Dagnai was attacking some corpse rats and hits on a 3+, and out of four rolls he missed with three of them. @[email protected]'s character was taken out of action twice, and we were unable to stay sufficiently ahead of the gravetide and multiple times where we took two damage from it. We then had two of the huge Kosargi Nightguard show up, and at that point we gave up, there was no possible way we could survive. We rolled on the table at the end of the game as if everyone had been taken out of action, it's on a D12 and on a roll of one anyone out of action permanently dies, and I managed to roll a one for Dagnai. ππ
It means I'll need to start from Level 0 with his replacement, Brutogg Corpse-Eater though he'll level up faster assuming we're actually successful in the next mission. π¬ We should probably do a Scavenge journey next instead even though it'll increase fear, so we can get some more gear.
