Silvarin and Legoles were walking quietly beside each other, gathering firewood. Neither said a word in their task. Being with a fellow elf simply comforted them both, but Silvarin saw no need for extra words.
Suddenly, Legoles’s head snapped up as he heard a commotion in the forest. He shouted out a warning to Silvarin just before a warg came upon him.
But that warning was not needed. Silvarin had already heard the wargs coming. He raised his blade to defend himself just as a warg leaped out. The warg knocked Silvarin back, and they both tumbled over the edge of a hill. They came to rest in a small clearing. Silvarin was unhurt; his sturdy sword had blocked the warg’s claws. The warg was getting to its feet, and Silvarin took the opportunity to strike at it. It was not a great blow, it only cut one of the warg’s forelegs. But it was enough to slow it down.
The warg was greatly angered. With a sudden burst of energy, it leaped at Silvarin with unnatural speed. All Silvarin could do was duck low to the ground and roll away.
He began to slowly rise, and started muttering to himself.
"I wish I did not have to expend my powers here. But it seems that If I wish to avoid injury, I must."
Silvarin reached deep inside of himself, and took hold of the magic he knew he could command. It’s power flowed through his veins, and when the warg next charged him, his blade crackled with power. He swung it in a mighty arc, and the warg, hit by both metal and magic, was beaten out of the air. It lay at the ground, dead.
(My RP character, Silvarin, could use a fair amount of magic in the RP stories I put him in. Sorry if you think this gives an unfair advantage; I’ll try to keep him balanced. I won’t outdo others’ skills with blade or arrow, definately.)
Mystic Power
Event * Skirmish
Spell.
Make an elf strength +2 (or +3 if he is wounded).
Magicians have a strength born of desperation.
Silvarin, 9,3,7 because of hunter. Discard two cards to exert Snapping Warg.
Snapping Warg Exerts, 10,1,3
Silvarin plays Mystic Power, Strength +2. 11 - 10, Snapping warg takes a wound and dies.
Silvarin stepped over the warg’s body, locking the magic away once again. He was sweating, it took a lot to use that kind of power. He slowly climbed the ridge again, to find Legoles locked in battle with a warg. He had dodged it’s first strike, but it was coming around for one more.
On to fierce, legoles... |

Duinihir saw the Warg snap at Adalard and then turn towards him. Springing over the dead wargs’ body, Duinihir attacked the warg. A fierce skirmish ensued. The warg, however, was weakened by Adalard’s blows and was surprisingly easier to vanquish then the previous warg.
After a sharp, short skirmish, Duinihir gashed the warg in the neck, causing it to let out a yelp like an overgrown dog and run off into the night.
"Adalard," Duinihir said, turning to face the hobbit. Helping Adalard to his feet, Duinihir turned to pick up the faggots of wood that had been strewn across the battlefield. "Let’s get back to camp."
The two gathered the wood and returned to camp.
Twisted Warg 9-2/2/3 from Adalard’s event pass.
Duinihir 8/3-1/8 pass
Twisted warg takes a wound. 9-2/2-1/3 |

Legoles turned around to head back when he heard the warg run towards him again, "ok, let’s dodge this one," he waited until the warg was almost upon him, then, he threw himself to one side as the warg leaped, as it flew past him, it struck with it’s back claws, but Legoles was ready and caught it with his sword, this time when the warg backed down, Legoles made sure of it by following him, he then regrouped with Silvarin and together they headed back to the camp.
Legoles - pass (still under the effects of elven reflexes)
Twisted Warg - pass
Legoles 7/2/7
Warg 9/2/3 |

I was talking to AD, and the event you used, unless you played it again wouldn’t work. (BTW when this is done, someone should edit out all the technical stuff or something) |

I’ll give a shot at understanding the technical mechanics of what happened...
Let me make sure this is right:
Dain (with his and mm’s characters) has yet to do any skirmishes.
We have 3 archers (SoP, legoles, Eomer) and the archery wounds are dealt to ??? (SoP), ??? (legoles), and ??? (Eomer)
Starting with the non-fierce skirmishes:
First, legoles, Eomer and AD took on Twisted Warg, while NBarden took on Snapping Warg.
AD: Would be losing, so plays Reckless Combat. Exerts to boost his strength by 2, and exerts the other Warg. It passes, and he wins.
NBarden: Would win, so passes. The Snapping Warg exerts to get a +3 boost. NB would be losing, so he plays Furious Blow. Exerts to wound his Snapping twice. It has 0 vitality and is killed.
Legoles: Would lose, but has two options. Exert to gain hunter 1 or play Elven Reflexes - but would need to exert 3 times (impossible) to win, so plays Elven Reflexes. Exerts once to prevent wounds to him until the regroup phase. His twisted passes, he passes. Twisted Warg wins, but each wound is prevented because of the event.
Eomer: Eomer is losing, even at a forest site, even if the minion was hit, so he plays Knife-work. Exerts to wound his minion. If it was hit by archery, this is all. Otherwise Eomer is strength +2 and its wounded for -1 strength. If this site is a forest, Eomer wins (as the Warg is now 7 strength vs his , otherwise the Warg does (and is damage +1). So, I think we’re hoping that it was either wounded or this is a forest...
Legoles/EL - Legoles wounded, Legoles has all wounds prevented until regroup phase.
Eomer/AP - If their Twisted Warg is hit by Eomer’s archery, or this site is a forest, it is dead and Eomer is wounded. Otherwise, the Twisted Warg is wounded and Eomer is dead...
AD/SoP - AD wounded, Twisted Warg wounded
NB/BW - NB wounded, Snapping Warg dead
DI/mm -
And this is just the very first skirmish... |
Our time here is ending...
What did you want to see before the end?
It will be made in the Request-a-card Set #1 (name ideas also welcome ). |

Correct. I’ve been working out some specifics with CG via PMs. I’ve started working on it now. Probably be up today.
BattleWarg wrote: We have 3 archers (SoP, legoles, Eomer) and the archery wounds are dealt to ??? (SoP), ??? (legoles), and ??? (Eomer)
Yeah, I was wondering about that myself. One archery wound clearly was applied to the Twisted Warg skirmishing Ectheow, but the others are a bit fuzzy.
One thing I can offer is this:
CarpeGuitarrem wrote: DáinIronfoot wrote: - Can Rorin and/or Ryle spot other characters in the party in the text of their event? Like, say, a  Man or an Elf?
Yes. But in this scenario, consider Rorin and Ryle as the "Fellowship", since the parties are all split up. In the future, when this "split party" situation occurs, it will be the same thing.
So for the moment, each group of two is essentially its own "fellowship". I would assume that means that each group with an archer (or two) could only use that archery against the two minions that twosome is facing. Make sense? |
