The Uprising

October 2004·p. 114

THE SHORT VERSION

Three Hâsharii enter a Haradrim town to assassinate rebellious rulers. Gondorian guards and the threatened chieftains begin scattered through the streets, making protection a difficult immediate task. The assassins win by killing their targets, while the defenders must eliminate them first. Suggested extensions add arriving guards or vary the chieftains’ resilience to change the pace and difficulty.

Games Workshop News

Ogre Kingdoms concept art and the Battle for Macragge starter set lead this month’s previews. Specialist-game support, Forge World Sentinel weapons and Black Library’s Games Day plans broaden the news. A school championship in Nottingham offers a glimpse of organised Middle-earth play, while The Old West outlines posse campaigns and planned expansions. Staff project reports range from Bugman’s terrain to Eldar repainting and large Chaos battles.

Ambush on the Old Dwarf Road

Grotsnag’s Wolf Riders surround three beer carts travelling through a mountain valley. Bazrak’s escort must keep the wagons moving while an independent Ranger relief force attempts to arrive in time. Skirmish combat, drunken guards and special rout conditions make this an uneven running fight rather than a conventional battle. Escaping with at least two carts wins the scenario, and surviving cargo and Ranger support can strengthen the Dwarfs in the campaign finale.

Bazrak Bolgan

The Dwarf Brewmaster leads the convoy with a rune-engraved axe and a supply of fortifying brew. Drinking can temporarily strengthen him, but risks exhausting the cask before the battle is over. Nick Kyme builds the character from an old Flame Cannon crewman, adding weapons and a substantial barrel. The conversion reinforces Bazrak’s trade and provides a distinctive leader for the escort.
