Frosthaven – Derelict Elevator (16)

Okay we’re now truly in unfettered territory and this scenario is one of the best to date in my opinion. Of course the fact that Math took the time to put the main tile on a real mechanical device that could simulate our descent helped make it really impressive!

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 5, Master of the 4th dimension

We’re on board the derelict elevator with its guards, some Ruined Machines, and we’re passing by side-platforms occupied by Ancient Artilleries. 12 rounds to go!

And a lot of tokens telling us that we’re in for a few unexpected things too…
Shadows and banner out. Meanwhile the frantic Blinkblade jumps on the nearest platform to take out the artilleries.
The Banner Spear will mostly stay in one spot doing what she does best: absorb and dish out punishment.
4 rounds in and the security is keeping us very busy!
Fortunately, the Ruined Machines have seen better days and aren’t very effective.
Britney pulls an artillery on our side: « Come over here! »
Debris keep falling down near us and now, a more potent defender shows up, a Flaming Bladespinner.
We have the upper hand though but we’re still getting deeper and deeper. 3 more rounds to go!
2 more of these dangerous foes but with the banner behind us we’re sure to prevail!

Closing Comments:

  • Most impressive set-up with Math’s 3d decor and very enjoyable tactical challenge.
  • It looked like a hard scenario on first sight but we managed to defeat the ennemy waves without much of a sweat.
  • The Ruined Machines kept getting the same card at random, Signal Jam, one of the least troublesome that only put the muddle condition on us. That helped us a lot.
  • The Blinkblade quickly killing off the artilleries on each side platforms while the Banner Spear and Deatwalker could stay put, focusing their efforts on the main tile, meant a very optimal situation for our team composition.
  • The Banner Spear even managed to get her mastery with the banner surviving to the end from round 1.
  • I’ve killed a whole bunch of Ruined Machines, advancing my personnal quest more that I’d hoped for.
