As soon as he can, the legionary throws his pilum and hits Spartacus' chest, uh oh!But contorting in an impossible way, Spartacus miraculously dodges the pilum, only suffering a minor scratch. Then Spartacus charges the disappointed legionary who easily parried him with his big shield.
Spartacus attacks again and forces him to recoil. They exchange some blows and suddenly the legionary knocks Spartacus down to the ground an jumps on him to finish him.
Spartacus parries him from the ground and then stands up and keeps fighting. Nonetheless, the legionary cuts Spartacus upper left leg, making the first blood. This infuriates him so much that strikes him back savagely, slashing legionary's chest and knocking him down to the ground, where he manages to cut his chest again though this time superficially.
The seasoned legionary revolves like a mad cat and slashes Spartacus lower left leg but the ocrea saves him from damage. The legionary stands up ready to fight. They have both only five dice pool each!
The legionary wisely stays quiet and catches some breath. Spartacus does the same. The legionary catches some more breath again, and again Spartacus does the same.
Tired of this game, Spartacus dashes forward and tries to flank the legionary who reacts on time. Spartacus insists and hits him in the upper left leg. The legionary falls to the ground where he spends his last dice from the pool and lays at the mercy of Spartacus.
Spartacus caps him and the game is over. The legionary gave a good fight and died honourably.Spartacus gains 14 APs for this combat and now has a total of 28 APs and 169 FPs.
No lo entiendo, ¿cómo puede ser que este tipo nunca muera?
ReplyDeleteQue lo crucifiquen ¡ya!
Que me tienes abandonada la campaña de WHAA
Ja,ja,ja! Que quieres que te diga? Insiste en no morirse :)
ReplyDeleteDentro de poco verás otro episodio de la campaña de WHAA, ya estoy pintando los enanos del caos de Eureka :-)
Spartacus es un perro afortunado!
ReplyDeleteThere's one thing I wanted to ask you:
ReplyDeleteSpartacus seems to be doing pretty well - wasn't there a moment you had to fudge the dice a bit?
Is he really THAT LUCKY?
Thanks for the report again :)

Mahon, he's that lucky I promise you. Actually, I've been trying to kill him for the last two encounters as I'm getting bored of him, but he insists on keeping alive!
ReplyDeleteAs LTL Dad says, he's a lucky dog! :)
I think he will fight again vs. Crixus and then perhaps everything will be over.
Bored?! Impossible! Or at least I hope so...
ReplyDeleteDon't tell me one can be bored with a RSBS campaign... or can one? Maybe it's not a game to be played too long?
Maybe you just should take a break from this campaign and return when you begin to miss Spartacus?

Yes, bored. Because being the games short and intense, it's always one guy against other on a flat surface. You once you have tried all fighting styles and possible combinations of players you get a little bit bored.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a great game but to be played during a week or two and then to leave it for a year or two or more.
Besides, I'm that kind of guy who's constantly starting and quitting projects :)
I think it's a part of the character of such small games. There are too few changing elements to keep you interested for a longer period of time and that's why breaks are needed.
ReplyDeleteI thought about RSBS more along the lines of a 'detailed melee mini-game' - even to be used for different settings or within other games.
Probably some new additions would add a little 'fresh air' in - like playing against other players, larger games - like 2 vs 2 or even 3 vs 3 players. Maybe playing in a different setting (I think there was a great addition titled "it's pronounced Dumas" for musketeers) including fantast?
Well, but I know what you mean about so many projects - there are so many cool games to try, so many nice minis to collect, so many interesting settings to find a ruleset for :)
