Lantern Year 5 & 6


Lantern years 5 & 6 went interestingly.  We had a pretty easy time with a white lion with the exception of Speedy getting the ironic injury of a shattered hip lowering his speed to 4.  We built more of a white lion set and then dealt with Armored Strangers in our settlement.  They destroyed an innovation which we then had to replace with endeavors.

Wanting a bit of variety we went after a Screaming Antelope next and had a pretty easy time of it.  The AI deck was thinned out pretty early so we had time to farm for items from the map.  We didn’t have much luck with salvaging the plants or bugs.  On the down side, Lily gained Hoarder.  Apparently all the characters I play are cursed.  On five out six lantern years the character I take on a hunt has either suffered death, disorder or serious injury.

Out of game I’m excited to add other expansions.  I snagged the Gorm, Dung Beetle, and Dragon King as hunt targets along with Slenderman as a new nemesis from the Black Friday sale.  I was also pleased to snag the Echos of Death set which has some excellent models in it.

Journeyman Jan. 2017

In an effort to bring in newer players I helped convince our local press ganger we should start off 2017 with a new journeyman league.  I thought it would it would give an opportunity to players who had purchased or received battle boxes over Christmas a chance to hop into our local meta.  Most of the local guys are starting with just new casters and playing the battle box with factions they already have but I decided to knock out the Skorne I had gotten with the two player Hordes box I had purchased to start my Trollbloods. I’m having no trouble painting the Trollbloods but I was afraid that the Skorne would sit on the shelf much like my circle has.  With this league I can knock them out and have a 75 point list completed and then happily move onto the Trolls. Why two Hordes factions all of a sudden?  Honestly I’ve been a bit frustrated with Cryx in its current incarnation and have been a bit overly affected by the Privateer Press forums doom and gloom.  I ...
