ILL Met at Eightpoints#4E(Vanquish)
Grashrak bouyed by his Warbands recent victory over the Reavers saw the rising of the Goremoon as a sign from
the Gorfather that the time had come to drive the invaders from the The Fangs Mts. Upon locating the Reavers camp he sent
Drakner & Krosh forward to pin the enemy down & kept Gnarl,Murghoth & Usnkor in reserve.

Garrek was in a foul mood following the Reavers retreat blaming Saek & Arnulf for the rout & ordering them
to guard the camp's permitter as punishment. Leaving Targor & Krasus in camp he decided to take a walk to
let off steam.

Drakner seen the Reaver chieftain leave waited hidden but when Garrek didn't return, he signaled Korsh &
Grashrak he was going in & using a Brayherd Ambush tactic advanced on Arnulf & attacked. His sudden attack
caught the Reaver off guard & Ripper Axe struck with force(6damage) however the Ambush effort caused Drakner
some strain (2damage)

Saek reacted quickly & counterattack, but Drakner was able to block most of the attack but the big Reaver axe
did nick him (3damage)

Grashrak move up to support Draknar

Arnulf counterattack Draknar but the Reaver easily fended off his assaults(0damage)

Krosh moves & attacks Saek his spear strike hits (4damage)

Krasus moves up & attacks Drakner his axe blow catches the Despoiler (6damage)

Drakner renews his attack on Arnulf striking him with a violent blow & taking him down(6damage)

Targor moves to surround Drakner

The fighting is now concentrated centered on Drakner who is badly wounded but fortified by Irondak Seed
he rallies & strikes out at Saek delivering an overwhelming blow & taking him out(12 damage)

The remaining Reavers having lost their camp guards & without their Chief give ground and retreat.
Garrek who has started back to camp is nearly overrun by his routed Warband decides Khrone has
turned his back on them. He turns and leads his fighters out of The Fangs Mts.

The Despoilers thank the Gorfather for their victory in holding their Territory but little do they know that
Khrone has been displeased with the defeat of his followers & his vengeance will shortly be unleashed.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Despoilers are on a roll taking their 3rd Convergence & winning the Campaign.The Battle Plan was very
close to the previous Shock & Awe in that each side must place 1or 2 fighters out front (random die roll
determined each side got 2 fighters) and the side that took out those 2 fighters won.

The Despoilers got initiative & Drakner was the first to be activated which usually with type of Battle Plan
is not a good thing as that fighter was one of the forward fighters which meant he had to use his 2 Actions
to move adjacent to an enemy fighter & then be a setting duck as the enemy fighter activated & spent both
of his Actions attacking. However The Breyherd Ambush Ability gave Drakner 2 extra hexes for movement so
he made it to Arnulf & still had an Action to Attack. After that the dice just favored the Despoilers
& both the Reavers Front Fighters were taken down.

Usually in my home rules for Campaigns after a Warband has been in two Campaigns they have to set out for
2 Campaigns so the Reivers are now wandering around the Bloodwind Spoil but the Despoilers won't be allowed
to enjoy their Territory as I want to try out a non core Warband Magore's Fiends & send them against
the Despoilers.

Sighing like the night wind and sobbing like the rain,—
Wailing for the lost one that comes not again:
