Frostgrave Battle Report No.1 Part 1

My First Frostgrave Battle Report Part 1

For the statistics that go with this Battle Report, see my earlier post "Frostgrave Warriors". I will add more captions and text to the rest of the pictures soon. The actual game mechanics governing why the characters won or lost will have to wait until I finish the rest of the beginning script. The wizard and apprentice would be throwing spells at the monsters and the troops are armed with some sort of weapon, even if it is only a club or dagger.  I am currently editing turn 7 in part three, on the next post. I have edited in the last page, so the finale is complete. I am in the process of chopping them into three parts, as they are rather lengthy in one go.

Here are my gallant heroes, seeking to gain knowledge and fortune, Haviskan Skaravir, the Thurmaturge Wizard and his apprentice, William Tremayer. Both are carrying a Staff. (-1 to hit, but -1 to enemy hit too).

 Haviskan has hired a few brave souls to venture into Frostgrave with them. 

Jac Trusk the Ranger, Muddy the Crossbowman and Eric the Infantryman.

Plus some thugs - Happy, Ginger, Ben and Ella.

Assorted monsters prowl the ruins of Frostgrave, seeking out rats, wolves or anything else that disturbs their hunting area. They have been given nicknames by warriors who have come this way before and tell tales beside the fire at night. 

The Harvester-Armoured Skeleton. Move = 6, Fight +2,  Shoot = 0, Armour = 12, Will = 0, Health = 1.

Clubber, near a treasure Chest. There are other blue treasure containers in the area.

Move =6, Fight +2, S=0, A=12, W=0, H=1.

Clubber, near the statue of the watchman.

    

House Rules: 

I will be using cm instead of inches.

I will be awarding 5 Xp for Failed Spells.

I will be classing Monsters as Enemy Soldiers for Xp purposes, since there are no other warbands on the table.

Turn One.

Haviskan First and second Actions - Group Move forward 6, taking Jac, Happy and Eric with him.

"Beware, we are observed ! Make less noise, Eric." reprimands Haviscan. 

The Harvester begins to shuffle in their direction. 

"It may not have been my fault", Eric thinks, "They were standing in the open, after all. That's bosses for you, always ready to dish out the blame when it is their fault."

An overview of the area.

Eric explores the ruin and will later climbs the ladder and finds the attic bridge to the other ruin, with the treasure token on it.

William First Action, Move right 3.

William Second action -  casts ARMOUR on himself. 10 XP.

SOLDIERS

On the other side of the ruin....Ella has moved to the side of the hovel, trying to get inside, so that she can spring a surprise attack later.

"Get away, you filth !", yells Ginger. Sticking to his ground.

Ginger moves to attack Clubber.

Ginger Second Action -  Fight - Roll 14 +4=18.

Clubber Fight - Roll 20 (Critical Hit - Double damage) +2 = 22 hit.

Merry Christmas 2021 and Happy New Year 2022

 Hi Everybody,

                     Unless you have been having a break, camping in a cave, or doing something similar at the moment (possibly a wise option with what's going on with the Covid Omicron variant), the telly adverts would have tipped you off that it has been Christmas time once more. The time when some people forget what is safe and sensible diet and pack as many calories, carbs and assorted flavours of alcoholic beverages in their cakehole as they can. 

To be fair, after the last couple of years, we certainly do deserve a pick me up of good tidings and joy. Just, please do not go over the top while you are making happy memories. Some do see it as a time to do good deeds. I hope we remember to turn a few lights off and try to save the planet. You remember the planet ? That thing that used to be green before we turned it into lots of sprawling concrete monsters, which gradually decay into homes of the forgotten. Ah yes.I see its coming back to you, the blue steaming orb, that's the one. 

Regarding the wargaming hobby of ours, it seem like nearly every set of new games come with loads of new, expensive, starter set armies to collect, with reserves and squads of creatures waiting in the wings, ready to invade our tables, fuelling the rampant use of resins, lead or plastics yet again. How about digging out those figures at the back of the drawer that you thought cool enough to buy in the past.

 Recycling is needed in every form of life, why should our hobby be any different? Scratch build some terrain out of scraps instead of that expensive terrain you had your eye on. If you don't want to paint them up and use them yourself, put them on E-bay, so that someone in our community can get some gaming miles out of them. The bonus is, you feel a sense of achievement, you can boost your funds to afford those new games a bit later on down the road. The Postie gets to keep his job too. Everybody wins.

A happy new year to one and all,

Ivor Cogdell

Frostgrave Warriors

 
Hi everyone,
                    Here is a list of my first bunch of Frostgrave Warriors. Meet my daring Wizard, Haviskar Skaramir, his apprentice, William Tremayer and their assorted hired guards.

Haviskan and William are armed with Staffs at the moment.  

They are ready for action. 

I was not exactly sure how this "paste" from a spreadsheet that I had used to create it was going to turn out like. I do admit that the result was a bit fuzzy, but hopefully it is clear enough for you.

Frostgrave Report no 1 part 1 contains turns 1 - 9 photos and After battle campaign report, text complete for Turns 1-3, and Turn 9.

Frostgrave Report no 1 part 2  contains turns 4 - 6 photos and partial text for turns 4 and 5.

I am in the process of editing the rest.

Stay safe and warm.

Ivor Cogdell

Microblogette - Updated

 "Happy New Year everyone",

                   A quick update on my upcoming Frostgrave battle report. I have relocated my gaming photos on my backup hard drive. I swopped them onto my main drive last weekend-ish, so I can lay my hands on them easily.  I have found a new virtual friend in the hobby, "Hi John N" and other friends have been in touch. A big wave to the Battle Circle wargaming group in Birmingham and players and DM's everywhere.

                  I was chatting to John about assorted games and war hammer came up, as it often does. There have been a few versions of 40K figures. I have some "Rogue Trooper" units and a few of the version 9 magazine figures, plague bearers etc. I prefer the early version Space Marine with the clean lines. Is version 9 your favourite sculpt or do you prefer earlier versions ? 

Update 1 - I have found my warriors stats, you can find them in my next post - Frostgrave Warriors.

Update 2 -  I have posted my Frostgrave Battle Report Number 1 to the net.

Update 3 - I have just found all of the script for it and will edit them into the Battle report over the next few days. Currently it is in two parts (partly edited), but there will be three eventually.

Stay warm and safe folks,

Thoughts On - Dr. Who

 Hi Everybody,

                      For the first time in my tv viewing history (I'm 63), an episode of Dr. Who came on  Tv and I could not be bothered to watch it, or to be more accurate, I could not bear to watch it.(About 5 Nov 2021). Jodie is doing her thing, and the result is only partially her fault,(Writers and directors, I am looking at you too.) The rest of the cast I have no problem with and happily cheer them on. After following with growing gloom, the last but one series I could not watch as they mangled the once beloved travels of the Timelords.  I will put my hand up and admit, in this respect, I am old fashioned when it comes to Galifreyans. My favourite Doc was Jon Pertwee, closely followed by Tom Baker.

                     That was how matters stood for a couple of weeks, until, by chance, I saw the Dr. Who trailer with the "Angels" in it. I must admit, it did catch my interest. I thought, I will see what they are getting up to. On checking the listings, I noticed there was a few of the earlier episodes I had missed. I thought, in for a penny, in for a pound. I watched those first and was pleasantly surprised. Jodie was, well, Jodie, but by now I was used to her. To be fair, she seemed to be finding her feet and be more relaxed in the role. (Spoiler) The Master was back, making mischief once more. (Bonus). The storylines have thrown the spotlight on green issues. (Absolutely fantastic writers, gold star, well done, thought provoking. We have been warned. If you can't trust a Timelord to tell it like it is, Who will you trust???).

                I have not delved into the "Angels" plot yet, but that should be rectified soon. I once more look forward to finding out about the other baddies the writers have in store for us, too. For the moment, I give them the benefit of the doubt. Time will tell if my faith in them was misplaced or not.

               A question or two for you to ponder as you drop off to sleep tonight....

Did the Master really take on and beat Gallifrey on his own, as he claimed or is he just taking the credit for it, which is what I suspect?. Did he have a hand in it at all or did he have an ally, another rogue agent perhaps that has kept to the darker corners of the universe out of the Doctor's way and playing the Master for the "Fall Guy"? 

When is good old Captain Jack going to put in another appearance ? Will he and Jodie become a love item ? Will we hear wedding bells anytime soon ? Will Jodie jilt him at the altar because she accidentally regenerates with excitement and turns back into a chap? (Hint to the writers - possibly into an Aussie? "G'Day to cobbers everywhere and everywhen.").

Do you think I am overreacting? Have you already turned off, like one of my friends ? Please leave a comment for or against "Time Ladies". Debate is good for our brains, so they say.

Stay warm and safe all,

Ivor Cogdell

P.S. Ginormous sigh of relief, the latest incarnation of The Doc has been announced, its a bloke. I dont know anything about him, but I wish him well in the role. Just for the record, I do wish Jodie well in her next role, too. 

Thoughts On - The Third Edition of 5 Parsecs from Home Pt1 - Updated 28 Dec 2021.

 Hi Everybody,

                     Here I am again with another large gap between episodes. My gaming has lapsed for a while, for assorted reason, mainly job searching and getting fitter, not fantastically so, but I am walking better than I was. I have been watching youtube vlogs on the topic of roleplaying games and following the volcanoes in Iceland (eruption finished, but maybe a new surge or Lava flow underground), La Palma (Just finished) and Mt. Etna (Smoking).

                       I have an old wargame episode still in the works. The pictures are on and I am editing in the text now. I am about to shoot another quick battle using "Rally round the King" fantasy rules by Two Hour Wargames or possibly Warhammer fantasy battles (Similar to Mordheim). Its the first time that I have actually used it in anger, so I am not sure how much detail to include with it so that it does not get bogged down explaining the rules. My terrain and figures are on the table as I type. I am hoping for a weekend shoot, after I fix my flat tyre on my bike. 

                      As you can see from the title, Ivan Sorensen has combined with Modipus to put out a hardback annual book of the Third Edition rules of Five Parsecs from home. I have not checked out the price. It has been available for a few months now, but I have only just become aware of it. There are reviews and playtests on youtube that you can watch to see if it is your sort of bash about.

There is at least one expansion pack available, as of the 3rd December 2021.

Five-Parsecs-From-Home--Expansion-1--Trailblazers-Toolkit

Have you played this latest version ? What are your thoughts ? 

                    I have the second edition of Five Parsecs, as you may know. So, that would my next sci-fi go to when I have got some more models and terrain painted. Not sure what timeline that will be though, being honest. I hope you enjoyed my last WH 40K outing.

                     That's about it for today. Stay safe. Fingers crossed that COP 26 is a success, otherwise, you can start dusting off those post-Apocalypse rules to get some early life change tips.......Greta T could have a point, "We want less words and more action, people. When the government starts offering free swimming lesions, BEWARE".

Thoughts On - 5 Parsecs From Home - Second Edition - Updated.

 Hi all,

             Its been a while since I did anything with my 5 Parsecs unit, mainly to do with the lack of scenery than anything else I have got some in the works, but they need assembly. I knew that Ivan had brought a second edition out, but I had not had chance to flick through it until recently. He had given it a complete overhaul, with colour headers for the different sections and tables. The tables have been given values that change the gameplay more than it did before, which is good. The enemies have bee increased to give the storyline more flavour.

           I have also obtained the Every Star an opportunity, Salvage Crew and Planetary generation supplements, which can be used with the second edition. I notice that there is at least one alien race that is new on the scene since I was on his website last, along with the K'Erin. Ivan has started a paetreon group which grants members supplements on a regular basis. 

            He has also got a low fantasy setting -5 Miles from the Borderlands which has assorted supplements, plus a new medaeval skirmish game too.

Regards all,

Ivor Cogdell

P.S. There is now a third edition out. Check for later posts.

Eyes On - Iceland's Volcano

 Hi all,

           This is slightly different than usual post, in that it is not a review, just something that has caught my imagination. The subject is the volcano that is currently erupting for 64 days in Iceland. There has been an eruption on Congo too. Sadly, 14 people have passed away, I'm afraid.

Mount Nyiragongo: DR Congo residents flee as volcano erupts

BBC Report - 23rd May 2021.

I'm glad to say that the Iceland volcano is much tamer than Mount Nyiragongo, although it has been rather frisky at times.

I have done some watercolour sketches of it in action, I hope you like them.

(The sketch of Volcano Cone no.1 was shown in my earlier post  "Thoughts On - Ups and Downs" - 11th May 2021).

Volcano Cone 02 - (C) Ivor Cogdell  7 May 2021.  Index Number 0633.

Volcano Cone 03 - (C) Ivor Cogdell  7 May 2021.  Index Number 0634.

Iceland Volcano From Nearby Hill Top - (C) Ivor Cogdell  9 May 2021. A4 size.  Index Number 0639.

There are live links to the action and the quiet phases, newly posted is a drone video looking down into the crater itself and the hole the lava spurts out of,  Youtube 23rd May 2021. I did not get the link correct, unfortunately.

The lava has diverted past one of the walls put up and is now flowing down into a new valley closer to the sea. The sea road has telecom stuff that connects communities together and they do not want it destroyed.

Updated 1st November 2021 - The volcanic eruption lasted for 183 days. It did not reach the sea, unlike the latest eruption in La Palma. I have not done any artwork of the La Palma volcano yet.

Update 3rd December 2021 - The La Palma eruption is continuing, this is day 73, two streams of lava have reached the sea and are in the process of creating more land, in the process destroying lives and property.

Regards all,

Ivor Cogdell

Thoughts On - Intergalactic - Updated

 Hey all,

            I have watched the first couple of episodes of SKY's new Sci-Fi show, Intergalactic. (No, this is not the TV sequel to the film Interstellar.) I'm not sure if it has gotten up to speed yet. The plot is a bit weak, the lead is a female cop, who is the only one who can pilot the prison transport, after a break out, who are trying to get to Arcadia (Paradise planet / heart of the rebellion etc. fill in the blanks of the dialog as you please.

          The first episode graphics were good, as you would expect from a pilot, to grab the audience's attention, the second was in the usual "Dr. Who" quarry setting they dig out for backward planets. Spaceship design - fair, a habitat ring above an engine module and cockpit. The acting is not fantastic yet, but I hope it will improve as it goes along. I presume this is their first gig, as it were. I can live with it for now.

       The early promotional hype was put out there as bait, this did have me wondering if it could stand on its own two feet. So far, this show has been better than nothing, but don't hold your breath for it being another series like Firefly, I don't think this is it. I could be pleasantly surprised, though.

Next episode - Steal from a fuel depot. Good luck all.... A bit more action in this one, but not enough to change my rating mark. There is 8 episodes in the series. I'm not sure yet about a season 2. There seems to be an underplot developing of the cops not being all that good and that they could be doing something naughty in the side. Warning, warning - plot twist, plot twist.

Next episode - The Mad Scientists Lab, as you do.

Updated 1 Nov 2021 - The season came to a close with myself still watching, so it did have some appeal to it, I'm not sure quite what though. The young and inexperienced actors did give it a sort of rough around the edges quality.

Rating 6 / 10.

Regards all,

Ivor Cogdell

 

Thoughts On - Ups and Downs

 Hi All,

             I'm sorry that the content on here has been a bit non existent lately. I hope the "Shout Outs" I mentioned in the blog from last time kept you going ok. My GM has been having Covid problems with his other half, so the RPG has stalled (I do have some more content for it though). I have been getting out a bit more, some socially distancing biking (Castle Bromwich Hall>Digby and Dog Pubs, Water Orton > Hare and Hounds Pub,  Minworth, >Fazely Canal > Tyburn Pub) and walking to the local parks, which is very good, but it eats into my PC time. 

           Speaking of  my PC time, I am now doing a home study course on Information Technology - that's Networking and stuff. (Part way through the second week of my course, I pranged my computer for a week (I was havingBoot Password problems and could not  get in) and was having to follow the class lessons through my Mobile, it was not ideal. I am still looking for a job.

         I have been doing a few watercolour sketches of the Icelandic Volcano and some other stuff when I have been out and about, as you can see below.
              Castle  Bromwich Hall grounds, just time for a picnic before the sun sets.

 Another very nice picnic stopover spot. There is a pub the other side of the bridge too - A bonus, but I was driving, as it were. 

 I have had the second of my two Covid jabs, so that is very good to get out of the way. I was late to the local Doctor's surgery by 30 minutes. I called them to tell them of my error and they fitted me in, which was very good of them. 

More on Jab-itis, which I mentioned in the last post, according to BBC radio 4 last night, a new poll stated that around 20% of youngsters (I'm not sure from where), do not want any of the Covid jabs available. The mind absolutely boggles. Very sadly, people are dying all over the world through this wretched virus and these young people are refusing the best chance they have of survival. Barmy.

 "Whom the Gods wish to destroy, they first drive mad."— Leo Tolstoy

There you have it that's about four months or so of not doing a lot, encapsulated in a few pictures and watercolour sketches. The sun is out today and I feel a quick bike ride is in the offing. Stay safe all, but get out when you can.

Regards all,

Ivor Cogdell

Thoughts On - Post Xmas Blues Shout Out

 Hi all,

           The January gloomies have struck. Christmas is over and there is nowhere to go, no sales to rummage through for bargains with friends and family. There is trouble at the UK ports (Brexit-itus), the Scottish National Party want to have another border with England and cast their lot in with the EEC again, I'm not sure how that would work out for tourism though if they went back to Euros. 

There is still trouble in the States (Voting-itus), I hope everything calms down there. Not to mention Jab-itus. I do not understand why people are skeptical about well researched vaccines. Apparently, 40% of French folk do not want it. It's got to be better than the possible alternative, which is dying, right ? I am being good, going out for the occasional bout of "fresh air" walking around the streets of Brummagem and getting shopping done at the same time.

I have just finished a wargame, so that is going to be in production next. The photos will need cropping and text typed, as per usual.

A great big thanks to all the Vloggers on you tube that have kept me sane through this last year. Here are a few for you to try out if you don't know them.
