The following battle was considered a draw as we had to end early as the store had to close early.  There are pictures, but photobucket is giving me attitude at the moment and refusing to let me sign in.

Vasyl sniffed the air as he and his troops approached the sea-shore village.  The village appeared to be abandoned, but there was a wrongness to the air that caused his hackles to rise.  Suddenly, a heavy fog began to roll in and shortly after, the sound of oars could be heard and the air soured even more with the smell of fish and rotted flesh.  Almost gagging on the smell, Vasyl quickly ordered his troops to prepare to engage as soon as the enemy was sighted and signaled Corm to begin playing his war pipes. 

 

Corm’s pipes echoed eerily in the fog and off to his right, Vasyl spotted a spirit wolf flickering into existence as if summoned by the war song.  Suddenly the fog thinned revealing what appeared to be undead pirates and the spirit wolf vanished.

 

“Razig!†The Koborlas leader snarled, recognizing the undead pirate .  “Charge!!â€

 

Takhi immediately cast the spell he had been preparing, burst of speed, on himself and his troop and they quickly surged forward.  His Line Breakers fired at two of the zombies in Razig’s group, but the shots fell short.  At the same time, Vasyl and his warriors moved towards Razig.

 

A loud whistling sound pierced the air and suddenly the ground between the Line Breakers erupted in a loud explosion, killing both of them.  Undetered by the destruction, Kainus and his men swiftly moved forward.  As Vasyl prepared to engage the enemy he heard the sea hag chanting a spell.  Suddenly he snarled in pain as a pair of swords slashed across his back.  Vasyl spun around, his qasik sword raised high to smite whatever unholy creature had snuck up behind and was surprised to see one of his own packmates, looking confused with blood on her blades.  He then realized that Clarissa had used her magic to compel his on warrior to attack him.  Meanwhile, Black Knife Tom and his mean were attempting to flank the Koborlas.

 

As the smoke cleared from the blast that had killed the Line Breakers, Takhi cast the spell Hailstones at zombie recruits near Razig.  The spell destroyed the zombies, giving the wargs with Takhi the chance to attack the undead werewolf in Razig’s crew.  While this was happening, Corm’s familiar got close to Razig and Corm was able cast Molten Earth through it.  The spell was successful and caught Razig and three of his crew.  Kainus and one of his men took advantage of the situation and to charge and try and get to Razig, while the other two went after Clarissa.  A howl rang out across the battlefield and the spirit wolf reappeared, racing across the field.

 

Black Knife Tom and his men continued to flank the Koborlas forces, Karkarius charged Kainus, and the Dark Maiden charged the Rageclaw next to Kainus, wounding it, but it wounded her in return.  Meanwhile, Razig and one of his crew attacked one of the wargs attacking the Scurvy Dog, killing it, but not before it wounded Razig;  two of his other crew attacked one of  Kainus’ Rageclaws, which in turn wounded one of his attackers; another attacked Corm’s familiar, killing it; and one shot Vasyl.  Over the sound of the battle, Vasyl heard the sea hag chanting and then found himself being attacked by the Sentry in his troop.  Meanwhile, Clarissa managed to break away from the Rageclaws and cast Blight on one.

 

In a burst of necromatic energy one of Razig’s zombie’s appeared behind him ready to join the fray.  Spotting Black Knife Tom on the flank, one of Vasyl’s Rageclaws attempted to cut them off.  Corm took the opportunity to cast a Cure spell on Vasyl.  Unfortunately, he was to  shaken by the loss of his familiar and the spell failed.  Vasyl’s Sentry headed off to deal with the sea hag, while Kainus fought Karkarius, wounding him.  One of Kainus’ Rageclaws, attacked one of Razig’s harpooners; killing him, but taking a wound as well.  Kainus’ attack on Karkarius allowed the spirit wolf to charge in and finish his off.

 

The Dark Maiden cast Spectral Minions and was able to summon 4 spectors, while at the same time one of Black Knife Tom’s men shot the Rageclaw trying to protect Corm.  Afterwards the rest of the troop charged her and finished her off.  Corm moved closer to Vasyl and was able to heal him somewhat as the Sentry killed the sea hag, taking a wound himself.  Takhi cast Hailstones at Black Knife Tom’s troop, wounding two of them.  The Dark Maiden and her spectral minions moved passed Kainus, one charging Vasyl and his Rageclaw.  It attacked the Rageclaw, wounding it, but it was destroyed in return. Razig and one of his crew attacked Kainus wounding him, while another of his crewman and a zombie attacked one of Kainus’ Rageclaw.  The Rageclaw was killed, but it killed the zombie.

 

Kainus was unable to land any blows on Razig and was only saved from Razig’s counter blows by his Ironhide armor.  Unfortunately, it did not save him later.  Vasyl and his last Rageclaw managed to defeat the Dark Maiden and then both sides withdrew.

Thanks for the write-up! 

 

You didn't mention my absolute disgust that I forgot to Focus when the Dark Maiden tried to cast that spell (chain lightning).  Gah!  Mistakes I will, hopefully, not forget.

 

I'll be back, ye scoundrel!  Ye gots me treasure, and I'll 'ave it back!
