Week of April 18th-24,1886

The Gentlemen are thoroughly sanitized by the Embassy scientists & are highly displeased with their
treatment. They demand to know why they were called upon when the Embassy staff had the resources
to handle the alien contamination? Prof.Galton explains the Embassy had identified one of its
scientist a Prof.Swanson as behind the hijacking of the Alien Buds. The Embassy was preparing to
take action but Lord x demanded that the Unicorn Club should handle the matter.

The Gentlemen realized that one of their own was involved, Emma Swanson was the wife of Prof.Swanson.
The reason for Lord x involving them became clear.Emma Swanson had been out of contact with the
Unicorn Club missing several important meetings & functions which was highly unusual for her.
Fearing for her safety they resolved to go to the Swanson Mansion at Nottingham Hill & investigate.

First, however they made a quick visit to the Nightside Market to prepare themselves for the raid on
the Swanson Mansion.

Peachy went to the Wilkison Arms Arsenal & picked up a Revolver.
Lady Widow went to Borrow 1 Artefact & secured the Nobunaga Mask.
Fogg visited Wilkison Arms Arsenal & got a Sword Cane.
Drago went back to the Unicorn Club & trained in the Open Season skill.

Unfortunately, their time in the filth of the Sewers had spread toxic cells throughout their blood streams
that even the Embassy medical staff could not fully banish. The Gentlemen had Mutations emerge:

Peachy got Cloven Hooves, Lady Widor developed Acid Blood, Fogg developed a Sixth Sense & Drago got
a Tumorous Hump. Nevertheless, they pushed on towards the Swanson Mansion to discover the fate
of their fellow Gentleman Emma Swanson.

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

The Rise of the Moloch rules do have instances of needed interpretations & questions not covered the
Embassy is no exception. I had 2 cases in this Chapter where I had to had to fill in the blanks.

1.Set up calls for 2 Security Gates but only 1 is shown on the set Up diagram (covering the Exits)
so after looking at the aet up tiles & decided the only logical place was between Tiles 024 & 025.
It forces the Gentlemen to enter the Grid control box before they can access the Tile with the Alien remains.

2. Ambassador Nail- per the Rules he was permanently neutralized in Part A but the part B Set Up calls for
the placement of 6 Shadow tokens & 1 is for Nail. Plus, Nail is also in the part 3 set Up.
So is Permeant only for part A or is out of the Campaign ? The Rules refer to Surviving Agents so I ruled
him out of the Campaign & randomly eliminated a Shadow token Placement.

It was a long Game the Gentlemen started from one side of the Tile Board & had to go the other End to
get to the Security Control to unlock the Security Gates. They then had to go down to the bottom of the
Tile Board to get the Alien Specimen & finally back around to get to the Exit.Chaos on each of its Activations
gets to roll a dice & if its Icon matches a Torment a Gentlemen has then it can Control that Gentlemen
for 1 Agility & 1 Attack action. This caused a lot of time with extra attacks & keeping the Gentlemen from
getting to their Objectives.( Fogg had a Torment that gave him nearly all of the necessary Icons to cause
Chaos Control & I had to get him off the Board as soon as the Exit was opened).

The 3rd & final Mission in the Campaign will be a little easier for the Gentlemen as Kenny Jones was
permanently Neutralized in this Mission so only 1 Agent Lord Swanson to deal with in the final game.

OD

PS-I misread the rules concerning Crates & allowed multiple actions to obtain Gear from them.The Rule states
once the Crate is searched its removed from the Game. So The Gentlemen had a lot of Gear they should not have
had. Luckly, I had assigned it all to Peachy & hadn't used any of it ,so when I realized the mistake I just
returned the Gear Cards to the box.
