Our third frosthaven scenario (sorry I’m skipping the second one) is inside an algox mountain lair, following our entrance on its backdoor after a steep ascension.

Characters

• Boneshaper (David) lvl 1>>2
• Geminate (Math) lvl 1
• Drifter (Guillaume) lvl 1

There’s a sort of icy tunnel and after we’ve eliminated the defenders we can access a room where two algox leaders (bosses) from rival clans/religions are having a go at each other.

Now, I thought we were gonna fight their minions or that their minions would try to stop us from intervening somehow but no, to win the scenario we specifically had to huh, meddle let’s say, and help one defeat the other.

Aside: party name proposition: Interloping Southerners

So we choose to help Snowdancer defeat Frozen Fist, it made some sense as we’ve fought alongside already on the previous scenario. We kill Frozen Fist (the Drifter does the killing blow) et voilà, we’ve solved the town’s little algox problem. Or have we?

What’s that? Hmm, yes, we’re asked to kill some more to prove our worth to our would-be allies… Yep, of course, always happy to get more skeletons help our friends!

Closing Comments:

• Guillaume’s Drifter did a lot of damage throughout the scenario but he was a bit too rash and almost got killed
• My boneshaper is really different from a gloomhaven summoner as most of her summons are expendables, taking a hit or two before dying if need be, in contrast with loss cards summons where you must be very careful to keep them alive. I find it’s a pretty easy character to play as long as I manage my hit points carefully.
• Math still struggles with his Geminate (he doesn’t do badly mind you) but I’ll let him expand on this himself if he wishes. It IS a 5* complexity character after all.
• We’ve unlocked a new character, the Snowdancer! That’s pretty cool!
• I think we would have unlocked a different one have we sided with the other boss?
• We’ve added a level 2 barrack (from an event) and a logging camp to the town, great!
