Battle Report: Flight to Freedom

THE SHORT VERSION

Dan Harden’s Dwarves must retrieve their weapons and escape Goblin Town while Adam Troke’s replenishing Goblins try to kill enough of the company to stop them. Heroic Marches and cooperative character abilities create a route out, but the Goblin King hurls Thorin into the abyss and later rends Gloin apart. Gandalf finally risks a desperate leap and rolls the six needed to join the escaping group, securing a narrow Good victory. The review considers Special Strikes, new Heroic Actions, Monster attacks and the opportunity cost of spending scarce Might.
