I decide on another game of Sellswords and Spellslingers. Looking through the scenarios defend the village seemed like another good low level scenario to play.
As written the scenario calls for you to draw a random monster to attack the village, however I decided that I'd continue the narrative from the previous game and have the Minotaur they fled from (with the healer) as the evil protagonist.
The peaceful village of Runny Bottom.
Suddenly the silence is shattered by some pretty loud mooing! (the random roll for the monster stuck him right next to the wizard! Stealthy, these Minotaurs)
Zank Frappa immediately backed off and hurled fire. To no real effect.
Suddenly a door swung open and a goblin leaped at Wensleydale. Fortunately the halfling chopped him down without too much effort.
Dilberry peppered the partially bovine brute to not much effect.
Frappa did manage to roast some beef, but then he said the words wrong and forgot ho to do spells any more.
Wensleydale went bravely a long way round from the Minotaur to rescue the grumpy little girl.
However Dilberry dropped his arrows, which made the Minotaur finally get moving - toward the nearby halfling.
Meanwhile Frappa had caught sight of something shiny amid the beer barrels.
Just in time the Dwarf came to the halfling's aid
The sound of battle attracted some goblins (and scared the girl off)
And then my camera ran out of power...
However the dwarf had cut down the rampaging Minotaur (Frappa and the elf both claimed to have weakened it first) and despite a sneaky ambush on Wensleydale the party were able to chase off the goblins and secure the village.
Hurrah!
A fun but quite quick game. the cards were kind and the Minotaur largely stood still and took a load of fireballs in the face.
The scenario doesn't detail which minions or wandering monsters you should use. i went with the goblins the party had fought in previous games, though I suppose bandits would have served the same purpose.
Starting to think I might need to write some adventures of my own...
