This is all my mates Drews fault, we discussed minatures for Sinbad and the new 7th Voyage rules from Crooked Dice, i had few and was deep into my VSF collection, after thought and time i made some crew from my plastic collection, and well I got the rules and found i had enough to play any of the games i saw in the book. this is the standard 300 pt battle scenario straight up fight,
The forces are Sinbad, Scheherazade, a trusty conpainion along with a leader and the rest sea dogs, the bad guys are the dreaded beastmaster Zuma , a guardian, 4 great apes and the rest cultists
Zuma wins and deploys in the table taking advantage of the terrain
His great apes take the high ground looking for prey
Sinbad deplys is crew in 3 section and hopes his numbers win the day
The cultist take the flanks, with some left to guard the evil beastmaster
The crew flank to the right hoping to shoot a few enemy before it comes to face to face
The Apes charge down from ther advantage to rip the crew on the left to bits
The charging cultist meet the skill of the crew and fall inthere first wave
Sinbad and his party make for the centre to confront Zuma
He and his people dispatch 3 cultist in short work of the sword
Zuma huge guardian charges the right party of crew men the cultist leader joining the frey
A lone crew man is ambushed by a nighyt Ape
Sinbad charges and slays the beastal creature
Sinbads crewman leader falls under the blows of the mighty lizard monster
A remainig crewman send the beast to where it belongs avenging the leader
2 cultist decide the battle is going the wrong way and make to the jungles beyond
The cultist leader take another crewman out un knowing she has 2 crew behide her, she falls to there blades
Sinbad confronts Zuma and his blade and skills are tested Zuma starts to take wouds form his mortal enemy
The ape pack is final stopped by the huge axes of the crewman
Zuma looks around and decides the safety of his lair is best not the battle field , sin bad wins the day
Sinbad and his crew victorius
The rules play very well I found nothing wrong except i forgot to use the event cards some times, heros are heros but alone you will get dead fast, the combination of dice and activation makes the game flow great as in 7TV, I now have plans for more games, and create some casts from my characters...Thanks as always for looking im still amazed how many hits i get, be safe
