Guilders Wrath: Week one Archeotech Horde

It started with a few technical odds and ends appearing in the black market and local bazaars. As more and more of them started to show up the locals started talking about a Archeotech horde. It must be found!
Local gangs searching for it bumped into each other and all want the prize for themselves.

The game played out as a seven player game of scavengers with a prize of a Archeotech horde territory for the winning gang.

We like to start off campaigns with a multi player game as they tend to lead to a bunch of rivalry's and interesting stories. We do give re-rolls for any dead results on this first game as they tend to be quite brutal.

Four gangs deployed in the corners of the board and three others in table edge middles

These are the few picture I got before I got too wrapped up in it to take anymore...

The board as a whole

My gang (Delaque models, Escher rules)

Simons gang (Cawdor)

John H's gang (Van Saar)

Dans gang (Pitslaves)

John J's gang (Redemptionists)

On the right a couple of Chris's gang (Orlocks) standoff against James's gang (Cawdor)

More of James's gang


The game was fun and even though we hadn't played in quite a while, it went smoothly.
Two of the gangs took a real pasting Chris's Orlocks where trapped between mine and James's gangs in a cross fire and the Redemptionists controlled by John J in a ballsy move headed right for the middle of the board and the loot. They got shot up a bit then charged by pitslaves. That finished it for them.

In the end the game got called due to time with two gangs left on the board, John H's Van Saars and my Eschers. We decided to dice off to see who would win the territroy and John claimed it!
I will have my revenge...
