Burrows and Badgers games
Spent a week away and took my full burrows and Badgers collection away hoping to get a few games in and managed 2 which was good, both games fun , the first involved a bacis meet up anf fight between
the Jockobites,led by Bonnie Prince Snarlie and his second Ginger Tom the wildcat , these would relie on getting in close and hitting hard with hand to hand with alittle magic from Rownena the hedgehog witch ,the opponents were a gang my grand daughter normally uses the CatnMouse gang which is basically a load of mice with a cat for a bit of muscle ,these relie on long range shooting with bows and crossbows and 2 magic users one using magic to assist the gang the other to cause havoc to the opponenets gang .
Secondary objectives were drawn with the mice getting Invade and Showdown while the Scary Hignland Jockobites drew Delikver and assasinate .
The game lasted 6 turns and was very much action packed with magixc from both sides being effective and the shooting from the mice archers hitting home but not causing too much damage but hitting most of the Jockobites .
Once hand to hand started happening the mice started to suffer but the mouse nun sister Tinker used her magic skills to heal some wounds ,then things started to look good for the CatnMouse gang as long rang shooting and a final charge into close combat by the mouse Titch Dumpling took the Squirrel Nuts McPhee out of action and in a brave duel the mouse leader Aramouse the mouseketeer took on The Jockobite leader so getting their secondary Objective Showdown completed and this gave the mice a sudden inspiration and most of the Jockobites including Rowna the witch were hit by some fantastic shooting .
However things didnt stay good for long the Jockobites winning their secondary objective Deliver before the game came to a end so a draw was declared as everyone left the field to lick their wonds a great fun game .
The 2nd game was the Take and Hold Scenario from the rule book
John chose the Jockobites and I took the Pirates of Blud Riva
The secondary objectives drawn were Secure for John and Assasinate for myself
John ahd the clever idea of wiping out my entire gang which would give him the secnario win and also his seconday objective , I seemed to have no battle plan at all ,needless to say John won.
I sufffered the dice gods displeasure and had little luck , my black powder weapons all rolling 1's on their first use so misfiring and being useless for the rest of the game an outstanding vistory for the Jockobites and Bonnie Prince Snarlie and humiliation for the Puffin Captain C. Bird and his pirate gang .
