BATTLE REPORT·WHITE DWARF 305

The Folly of Prince Rodrik

May 2005·pp. 34–49

THE SHORT VERSION

Andy Hoare and Adam Troke command eight heavily equipped Bretonnian outcasts trying to escape Graham McNeill’s Lizardmen after plundering Xlanhuapec. Their stolen magical treasures provide unusual abilities, but early lashworm attacks and unnecessary fighting erode the small force while Skinks and Saurus move to close its route through the temple-city.

A carnivorous plant briefly saves Guido from pursuing cavalry before another devours him, and Florent dies to similar foliage within reach of freedom. Rodrik himself falls to the Rod of the Storm, leaving no escapees; the reviews praise the cinematic disaster while recognising that impulsive charges and delayed movement made survival far less likely.
