Deth Wizards, - necromancers don’t suck

Image
 I got inspired by all the fun I was having with Richard and seeing him have fun with his vampires so I decided to make a different necromancer leading a vampire themed warband. Here is my Necromancer Drusus Von Meckleburg. His is a sticker so good a sticking them back together and he is also the most magical of the necromancers. Here the necromancer and his minions have deployed in the top right while the brave defenders are emerging from their houses. There are three warriors and three archers. Drusus has a vampire and 3 vampire spawn, named Phoebe, Monica and Rachel. Now they can be friends for all eternity and not just in the reruns. Crap! It’s Vampires! A blurry shot of the necromancers forces. A close up of the defenders as they take to the field of battle. The necromancer used his stitcher spell relocate to teleport the vampire and Monica forwards. There are three vampire then leapt over the building and almost are a villager A spearman came running around the corner to find...

Dungeons and dragons - back to the past

 Last weekend I ran my first game of dungeons and dragons in about 40 years. I joined a group of guys who all turned out to be my age reliving their childhood. We played online via discord. The original DM had to withdraw because his new job was taking up too much of his time. I volunteered to take over. I’m running my games with help from Grok. I created Bob short for Kate to be the DM. I also created Elric Shadowquill my cartographer. This is the regional map. The player characters are currently moving from the city of Guilders Sleeve in the bottom right to take up posts at the fort on the frontier. Here we are getting ready to set out.

During the night the farm dog started barking and we all got u...

Deth Wizard Game 4 - Robbing the Nobles mansion

Image
  Here is Krell's Warband after the game with their latest recruit Lucy, the Vampire Spawn. She is modelling the latest in Agent Provocateur haute cuisine. Here we are all deployed in a traditional bunch, just emerging from the forest. The Nobles mansion is defended by six warriors, 2 Wizards (Harry and Ron) and two dashing rogues. The Rogues race around and try to attack my mummy. Only a small number of warriors rush forwards into the kill zone. I think in this game I managed to take 3 warriors down to 1 wound, my mummy model is a classic Heroquest model and must be 30 years old at least. Richard's Wizard and Vampire chased off the Rogues. My mummy has several knives sticking out of him. The warriors that did advance did not last long. That's wear Richards Vampire went. He ate one of the rogues but then took a fiery bolt in the back. The remaining warriors are having a quick review of their contract to see whether they really have to run into a horde of undead and sacrific...
