Frosthaven – Crystal Trench (8)

David Skelector Boardgame, Frosthaven, Play reports

We’re now starting the Unfettered thread of the campaign. What Frosthaven call unfettered are essentially robots so we could say its a big thematic change as per the yeti-like Algox thread we were focusing on earlier.

Characters

  • Lazy Liz the Deathwalker (David) lvl 2, sun-averse, why walk when I can teleport
  • Britney the Banner Spear (Mathieu) lvl 4 a great leader, might be related to Bruce
  • Boson the Blink Blade (Guillaume) lvl 4>>5, Master of the 4th dimension

Or at least, it will soon be a big change of theme but not yet. En route to investigate some strange sightings we’re now fleeing for our lives as we’re being pursued by a (an unlimited amount of) wolves with just one possible path ahead, into the narrow trench.

We must get out of the trench but to do so, we must fight snow bears and the ever annoying snow imps.
The Blink Blade opens the hostility and gets invisible. Meanwhile the Banner Spear calls for reinforcement and the Deathwalker summons ominous shadows.
The fight is on!
Banner Spear: « I’m surrounded, that’s perfect! »
Let’s move on. I’ll lead the way, don’t mind the creepy shadow following us.
The wolves have caugth up,. Move, move, move!
The Blink Blade gets face to face with one ferocious bear. He dances around it, stabbing it numerous times, killing it effortlessly.
Meanwhile the Banner Spear fends off the wolves as long as she can and the Deatwalker is… teleporting way behind with a shadow conveniently left there, to fetch some loot!
Finally, we’d better get out of there before exhaustion gets us.

Closing Comments:

  • Easy, straightforward scenario as it’s one of the first available too.
  • The Blink Blade had no trouble at all defeating an elite bear all by himself, that’s impressive.
  • The Banner Spear had a ton of unused bless cards by the end ot the scenario, they just refused to come up.
  • The Deathwalker and Banner Spear killed a lot of wolves, just to get xps and loot and got near depleted doing so.
  • Not a very fascinating scenario but it was mandatory to open up, as I said earlier, something that should feel different.
