The Campaign for Hottsk – Year Three

…and so we come to the conclusion of this epic tale of adventure, betrayal, and warfare in miniature. If you havent’ read the first two parts I’s highly recommend you read Year One and Year Two first.

After a fine supper at Amigo’s Cantina we launched into the third and final year of our campaign…


YEAR THREE

Spring

T’was the season of unsuccessful sieges…?

Having overwintered in Buttercupford, King Aethelbert the Almost Ready decided to carve himself out an empire by his own sword – at the expense of the newly founded Elvish Empire... So he marched north to the former orc territory of the Broken Tusks. There he spent most of the spring fighting off ambushing parties of elvish archers and doing little of any real affect.

The Elves, for their part, marched on Buttercupford and tried to bring it back into the fold of their empire but the garrison left behind were sturdy folk and not willing to give up easily. The siege dragged on into the summer.

Over the winter the Orcs and Wildmen of Mørke negotiated a peace with Aarkland and submitted to their overlordship. Together the Army of Mørke (if you could call it an “army”) and Aarkland marched on Argha and besieged it once more. Knowing what happened to the last garrison that gave up the town the halfbads fought on ferociously through the spring!

The movements of the Halfbad Army and the Dwarves stank of some sort of secret negotiations between orcs and dwarves that at least one party – if not both then reneged on!? The Army of halfbad marched first to Grog and then on to Glurg… The Dwarven Army, which, for the most part, had overwintered in Glurg marched straight on to Halfbad’s capitol of Drek! Neither were successful at winkling out the defenders.

The Army of Florin was the only aggressor in this campaign that did not lay siege to an areas this spring. They instead remained in their capitol of Rugenville plotting their next move…

Summer

Furious with the Treacherous Dwarves Skimpi the Sneak stormed back to his capitol of Drek and launched themselves upon the dwarves siege lines! The battle was another frantic melee. The Dwarves sold themselves dearly but eventually were overwhelmed by the goblins that seemed to come at them from all directions out of the wilderness!


Bjorn Bjarnetson, High King of the Dwarves (Bob) arrays his forces for battle against Skimpi the Sneak (“other Tim”) of Halfbad.


The Dwarves forces were split by a forest running down the center of the battle field.


South of the forest there was a fierce action between some Dwarven foot (Blades and Shooters) and the Goblin Hero, riders, and Spear General.


After they were taken care of the Goblins concentrated on the force lined up north of the forest.


That battle was also fierce with abit of back and forth.


Ultimately the Dwarven line was broken and they retired to Glurg.

Meanwhile, on the other end of the continent, The Anglanders succeeded in subduing the Land of the Broken Tusks and cleared out all the Elvish immigrants. The Elves were not so successful in their continued siege of Buttercupford, which lingered on through the summer.

The armies of Aarkland and Mørke continued their siege of Argha but the desperate defenders held on! Conveniently, being Orcs, they had no trouble at all eating their fallen comrades – of which there were many!

Through the summer King Humperdinck was rarely seen outside his bedchambers, though many messengers came and went (not to mention a number of fine ladies… and the occasional effeminate young man….).


Everyone’s positions at the end of summer/beginning of fall.

Autumn

In the last season of the campaign Anni-frid became a tributary of Aarkland – pretty much assuring Aarkland;s victory in the campaign… I’m not entirely sure why….? Anyway, being now the overlord of the Dwarves, the Aarkalnders retired from the Siege of Argha to Glurg where the Dwarves had retired to after their Defeat at Drek (of course they could have done that simply with the permission of the Dwarves…). The two armies sat in Glurg waiting for the Orcs to come out and play. The Orcs didn’t oblige them. They sat in their capitol and waited for the Dwarves and Aarklanders to come to him…

The Army of Mørke stayed on at Argha to continue the siege, but was unable to take back the city…

King Aethelbert the Almost Ready led his army back to Buttercupford to relieve the siege. In yet another treacherous back-stabbing move the Army of Florin marched out of Rugenville to aid in the relief of Buttercupford…. Would they make it in time…!?


Surprise! The Elvish Mounted Column flanked the main line, dispatched the single stand of Blade actind as a picket, and….


…captured the stronghold!! Wow! No ne saw that coming…!? At least it seems Aethelbert didn’t… maybe that’s why he’s the “Almost Ready”…?

THE END

AND SO… that brought us to the end of our campaign. We were actually done at a decent hour and I don’t think anyone really felt the urge to carry on. I tallied up all the statistics and presented some awards…

The overall winner was Terry with a whopping 72 Prestige points!? Half of that coming from tributaries! Congratulations Terry! Terry got to take home the map I painted and I had picked up a gift certificate from the Dragon’s Den for him.

I gave out three other prizes – they were sort of like trophies but double as “barker markers” (for 28mm figures) – You can see them Here.

The Lord of Battle Award went to the player who won the most battles – that would be the “other” Tim, who won five!!

The Future Necromancer Award went to the player who lost the most stands over the course of the campaign – that would be Jackson, who lost NINETEEN!?

Finally the Bloody Daggar Award went to the most treacherous player who – Chris was voted so!

Once again it was an awesome campaign, thanks again to all the fine gentlemen who came out and made it so!!

It has been brought to my attention that I referred to King Skimpi the Sneak of Halfbad as being a “hero” in the Year One report – Skimpi the Sneak was in fact a Spear General… The Hero in the Army of Half bad was some other nameless Orc goon

The Campaign for Hottsk - Year Two

(If you haven’t read the report of the first year of this campaign You might want to start there… It can be found HERE).


YEAR TWO

Spring

In the spring of the second year of the Great War for Hottsk Hannurbull, King of Mørke, sat with his army sat in Gnurl waiting to defend against any invaders… Once again The Halfbads invaded from the east. The Army of Mørke once again met them in battle at Argha! Once again the Halfbads beat down the Army of Mørke in battle and claimed Argha to be their own!


The Army of Mørke prepares to meet the Army of Halfbad once again!


The army of Halfbad surges forward through the wilderness.


Orcs and orcs, mixing it up. Why can’t they just get along…!?


This one seemed to degenerate into a wild skirmish in the woods! A mounted contingent of a Hero and two Riders broke through the melee and tried to take the stronghold, but I think in the end it was sheer losses that obliged the Army of Mørke to once again abandon Argha to the Halfbads.

To be sure there was much rape, pillage and murder in Argha that night to avaenge the halfbad Garrison put to the sword in the previous year! But once again after the battle King Skimpi the Sneak was informed that the Dwarves had come down out of the mountains and attacked Glurg – unfortunately this time they had TAKEN it!!

Far off to the Southeast, the Banner of King Humperdinck of Florin was raised at Buttercupford. The army assembled and prepared to march on Seroza. They marched out of The City of Buttercupford and over the first hill only to discover the Army of SEroza on their doorsteps arrayed for battle!? In a pamic, the rash King Humperdinck charged down to meet the elves on the field of battle. After the first charge of the Florin knights into the Elvish lines a messenger caught up to King Humperdinck with grave news. A mounted column of elves had snuck around the flank, scattered the pickets before the city and taken Buttercupford! Another nearly bloodless victory for the Elves!?


King Humperdinck (Chris) arrays the army of Florin before the gates of Buttercupford!


The wiley General Venerable Bede (Rick) prepares to put his cunning and subtle plan into effect!


The Knights of Florin ride out to meet the Elvish line – while the elvish hammer (in the form of their flanking mouted column) is about to fall. Humperdinck’s subordinates try to break up the battle line and send the foot back to defend the city..


…but it is far too late for that!


The Knights of Florin fall upon the Elves in a desperate bid to drive them of and crash through their line!


Alas, the city has already fallen!

Over to the West, two armies were marching north! The Army of Aarkland besieged their old city of Drelt to recapture it from the Goblins. The siege dragged on all through the spring. The Army of Anganld marched into the lands of their new overlards, through their old city of Scael to the Aarkland city of Svaug.

While these battles were taking place Bob and Cory had a little one-off game, just for fun!


The Anglish and The dwarves conduct “Field Excercises”


Summer

After retiring to Gnurl, the Army of Morke marched south to try and lift the siege of Drelt. Much weakened they met the full might of the Aarkland army – if that wasn’t enough a contingent of Anglander’s were there supporting their overlord.


The valiant (or foolhardy!?) Orcs of Mørke attempt to relieve the siege of Drelt!


The battle lines clash.


While the Orcs were initially doing well on the flanks and Hannurbull and the Trolls gave the main line a pounding, the hard hitting steady Aarkanders eventually overwhelmed, surrounded and annihilated the Orcs… Hannurbull only just escaping back to Waruk with his life! (I think all the orcs had left after this battle was the Hero and maybe a stand of warband…? If that…?)

The army of Halfbad marched back to Glurg to find the Dwarvish Army departed and a small garrison of Dwarven engineers hurriedly improving the fortifications. Skimpi the Sneak besieged his own fortress determined to eject these short hairy mountain men from his lands! Scous arrived with news that the Dwarves had marched on the capitol of Drek and were currently Besieging it!? Neither Drek nor Glurg fell to their besiegers.

The army of Florin retired to West Leigh and was pursued by the Elves who laid siege to them there in their fortress. That siege too would drag on through the hot summer months.

King Arthelbert (the Almost ready) led the Army of the Anglanders up into the dwarvish mountains!? They passed though Lyngstad and made their way to Agnetha unopposed!

Autumn


The locations of the various armies after their fall moves.

Hannurbul of Mørke decided field battles weren’t really his thing…. Sieges and sacking seemed to work out much better… So he led the small warband he still commanded back to Argha to try and once again reduce the small garrison left behind by the Halfbads. It seemed a sensible move, surely the Halfbads would be attempting to relieve their capitol. But no sooner did Hannerbull arrive so to did the Skimpi the Sneak and his army of Halfbad on it’s way to Waruk!? Once again they battled over the beleaguered city of Argha


The action was short and violent – while the Wildmen of Mørke Warband mixed it up with some lurkers and beasts in the woods Hannurbull and his personal guard stormed toward the gates of Argha!


They were however overwhelmed and annihilated. Hannurbul escaped, severely wounded and made his way back to Waruk only to find out that the Aarklanders had also invaded and taken Gnurl after a short siege!


In danger of having it’s supply line cut off the Dwarvish army of Anni-frid had given up it’s siege of Drek and retired to Glurg, to find the orcs had given up their siege and wandered off to fight with a weakened lot of their own kind… Orcs…

Strange and treacherous behavior was taking place in the southwest. The Elves gave up their siege of West Leigh… but instead of retiring they marched WITH The Army of Florin into Angland. There they laid siege to and took the city of Morgond!

If that wasn’t strange enough the Anglanders continued their march through Ulvaeus, and down through the passes towards Buttercupford! Unfortunately, as any dwarf can tell you, those passes can be treacherous in the fall and the army was caught in a massive avalanche and all but obliterated (10 of the 12AP in the army was wiped out!?). All that survived was Aethelbert himself and his personal Huscarls! But they forged on through the snowy passes and down through the foothills to the City of Buttercupford. They were of such a surly disposition all they had to do was march to the gates and demand they be opened and the city fell to them!! There they wintered and prepared for renewed campaigns in the spring!

Winter

Once again all armies successfully retired to winter quarters and spent the long, cold months rebuilding and preparing to continue their campaigns in the spring… The Anglanders (as mentioned) overwintered in their new city of Buttercupford.

At this point Halfbad (other Tim) had acquired 27 Prestige points, Seroza (Rick) now had 14, Angland (Cory) still had 12, as did Aarkland (Terry).

Stay tuned for the conclusion of the campaign: YEAR THREE!!!

The Campaign for Hottsk - Year One

Darkness spreads over the land of Hottsk. Armies of the Orcs gather in the North.

The Dwarf Warlords gather at Agnetha. The hammering of armourers plying their trade sounds through the valleys of Anni-frid.

The Elven Council convenes. It is decided that they must be readied for war. The army must be assembled and Venerable Bede is nominated as General of the Army.

All the while the kingdoms of men quarrel among themselves and are concerned only with their own affairs…

(wait... first a little background…)

This campaign weekend has been a dream of mine for darned near 20 years. Over 20 years, really… From when I very first started miniature wargaming I was interested in playing games as part of a campaign. Indeed I think the very first miniature game system I bought was the first edition of Battlesystem for AD&D. I tried playing it with the counters a couple times, but never really picked up massed armies of figures – oh, I had lots of miniatures for the role-playing game, just not units… I never really got characters in games I ran or played in to the point where they could be leading entire units into battle…

Later I got involved in Warhammer (back when it was a single hardcover book and you could play with any damn thing you wanted!?) because a friend was planning a large campaign – it fizzled before it got started. Laer I tried to get campaigns going first with systems of my own devisisng, then one with Mighty Empires when the first edition came out. Neither made it past the first couple turns.

When I stumbled upon DBA I fell in love with the elegant simplicity of it and saw the potential for some serious campaigning – it even included it’s own campaign system that was also brilliant in it’s simplicity. I immediately set about trying to recruit players for a campaign – We chose the campaigns of Alexander the great. Partly due to the availability of figures (RAFM was easily available through the Wizard’s Corner – our local game store where we all hung out) and also I think Osprey had just started it’s campaign series and one of the first books was The Campaigns of Alexander the Great.

I had the Persians, Cory had the Scythians… I think Mike was supposed to play the Thracians and John the Greeks… I can’t quite remember who was to play the Macedonians or Indians… maybe Jay and Todd…? Anyway, I think John and Mike may have bought a few packs, but I can’t remember if Mike did anything with his. I know John never did anything with his, and they’re probably still sitting in their original packaging in his basement. Cory at least assembled his army and played many battles on his kitchen table against my painted Persians… Cory still has them and they are still, for the most part, unpainted… Another campaign fizzled before it got started.

Shortly thereafter everyone I gamed with went their separate ways moving to Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa, etc… and for a decade or so I just dreamed…

To bring a short conclusion to a story that’s already getting way to damn long (is anyone still reading or have you all skipped ahead to the pictures…? I know I would…) – This last winter I abandoned the then current plan of a Wargame Weekend with a focus around the Quebec campaign of 1759 and decided to build myself some DBA and HOTT armies… actually, no that’s not quite true – I was planning on building Warmaster armies in 28mm and though “hey I could play DBA and HOTT with these stands in the interm until I amass enough stuff to play Warmaster…” Well, I stared having so damn much fun playing HOTT I have abandoned all plans of Warmaster (anyone want a copy of Warmaster Ancients and Warmaster Ancient Armies…?) and realized I could easily put together about six HOTT armies with the stuff I had on hand… so I started planning a campaign weekend for sometime in the spring or summer…

This past weekend I hosted that HOTT campaign and it has truly been a DREAM COME TRUE thanks a a group of eight exceptional gentlemen – some of whom drove (or FLEW!) here from Edmonton and Calgary to participate. Thanks to all of you.

I was especially pleased that Mr. Cory Loshney – who initially played Warhammer with me and jumped right on board when I switched to DBA and built that Scythian army – was able to make it.

Here are all the participants gathered around my dining room table ready to begin the first turn:

(Remember: click on the pictures for a bigger version)


From Left to Right: Jackson, Rick, Christian, Other Tim, Cory, Terry, Bob, and Chris

A list of who played what can be found HERE. I’m not going to get into the exact make up of each army as that would make my brain hurt – Most armies changed somewhat over the ears of the campaign as they were allowed to recruit different elements available.

Here is the MAP:




YEAR ONE

Spring


Starting locations at the beginning of Spring


Locations of the armies after marches completed…

In the spring of the first year or the Great War for Hottsk two armies march on the borders of Angland. The horsemen of Florin were massed on the eastern border in early spring and marched on Morgond as soon as the tracks were dry enough to do so. Meanwhile the Army of Aarkland marched from Drelt, in the north, on Scael from the west. King Aethelbert (the almost ready) ordered his standard raised at Galordon and marched east to meet the Florins. When he received news that Scael was besieged he hoped the garrison could hold on until the horsemen were be dealt with.

Ideed the Garrison at Scael did hold through the spring while the Armies of Angland and Florin met on a field just south of Morgond. There, Aetherbert handed a crushing defeat to the Florins, who then fled back across their border in utter disarray.


King Humperdink (Chris) and his invading army of Florins line up for battle opposite the Anglanders.


The Battle of Morgond observed by Terry and Bob (whose armies were engaged in Sieges). Until the previous evening Chris had never before played Hordes of the Things, and had only ever played DBA once or twice with me about four years ago…


The lines meet, retire and ready to charge again….


The Army of Florin defeated. The Army of Angland suffered few casualties (no stands lost to the Florin’s SIX!?)

Meanwhile in the North the Amies of the Goblin King Skimpi the Sneak invaded the neighboring orc lands of Mørke. Hannurbul, King of Mørke, lead his army out to meet the Halfbads at Argha. Skimpi the Sneak captured Argha after routing the Army of Mørke. A garrison was hastily organized there and the army made ready to move again as news arrived that the Dwarves of Anni-frid had marched down out of their snowy passes and laid siege to the fortress of Glurg


The first battle of Argha is under way! Hammurbull (Jackson) advances his forces to meet the invading Halfbads.


The armies about to clash! (Fatal mistake #1 about to take place – Beasts charging Riders and Hero General in the open… it wasn’t pretty…)


Skimpi the Sneak ploughs through the screen of wolves with his spiders and engages the warbands and hordes of Mørke in the woods.


To the East the usually peaceful Elves marched out of their woodland realm and advanced through the land of the Broken Tusks Tribe. There out on the steppes they met Warlord Bork Redtooth of the Bloody Suns Tribe, who had just arrived there from Black Rock. Here the victory was not nearly so decisive.


The Battle line of the Bloody Suns near on of the Broken Tusks fortified camps.


The Elves begin their long advance!


The Elves continue their advance while the Orcs reorganize their line… The rank and file orcs look on nervously as the giants pass in front of them (“boy… I hope nothing spooks them and they trample over us as they flee…”)


The elves themselves do some dancing about sending their mounted column straight across the table (behind the Elvish main line) and through the woods!?


The Elf and Orc lines clash (FINALLY!? – I think by this time both the other battles were over - in fact this was the only battle we had to call on time as it was damn near 11AM and we were only in the spring of the first year – unfortunately for Christian he made some bad rolls on his last turn and lost a couple stands, thus losing the battle…).


Summer


After moves completed for the Summer.

After retiring to their capitol of Waruk the Orcs of Mørke regrouped and marched again on Argha. When they arrived there they found that the Halfbads had vacated their recently acquired lands leaving only a small garrison behind. The Garrison was Quickly reduced and every last one of the Half-bads put to the sword!

The Halfbads had returned to relieve the siege at Glurg. There they met the Dwarves in battle. This was far less decisive and the Orcs and goblins went at it hammer and tongs with the Dwarves for a good long time before the Dwarves were obliged to retire from the field.

Meanwhile, far to the South the Anglanders, fresh from their victory against the Florins marched on Scael to relieve the siege there! They were perhaps a too confident in their abilities and expected the “Northern Barbarians” to flee the field as the horsemen from the east had. The Aarklanders held their ground and in a complete reversal of fortune crushed the Anglanders! The Anglanders, their army defeated and much reduced sued for peace and King Häggis accepted King Aethelbert the Almost ready as his vassal.



King Aethelbert the Almost Ready (Cory, left) leads his army against the accursed Aarklanders, lead by General Lutefisk (Terry, right).


The battle lines clash!!


CRUNCH!!


It was for some time a bit of a shoving match.


Lots of back and forth…


I think the Anglanders flanks disintegrated and the Aarklnaders enveloped them and it was over pretty quickly after that…

The army of the Elves pursued the Bloody Suns to their fortress of Black Rock, but the orcs refused to meet them in battle. Instead the orcs holed up in their fortress and forced the Elves to lay siege. The sige continued through the summer…

We broke for lunch at this point. I had hoped to finish a year in the morning, but it just didn’t work out. Ah well… After lunch the campaign continued…


Autumn

I’m not sure if they got the wrong directions back to their homeland or if they were suddenly afraid elves might invade the lands of the humans…. but the Army of Aarkland marched across the land of their tributary and into Florin making camp at West Leigh. Maybe they were there for the autumn wine tasting…?

The Army of Mørke, now well practiced in reducing garrisons and sacking towns, marched south into Aarkland and sacked the city of Drelt!

The dwarves continued their retreat all the way to their capitol of Agnetha. This left the passes open for the Halfbads to surge up into the mountains and besiege the fortress of Faltskog! The orcs and goblins were unable to break into the mountains and the early snow enticed them to return to their wilderness in the north.

The Anglanders returned to their capitol and released the fyrd from service for the year giving them plenty of time to make it home for the harvest.

The Florins, however, hearing the Army of the Elves were off in the North fighting orcs seized the opportunity to send out a series of raids into the region of Vico. They were unsuccessful in chasing off the Elves that lived there and eventually return to Florin for the harvest.

In the Northern lands of the Bloody Suns Warlord Bork Redtooth sallied out with his Orc horde and met the Elves in battle. The Elves again advance in a main line while General Venerable Bede led a mounted column around the flank. The battle was nearly bloodless – the mounted column swept into the fortress and the orc army broke and ran – thus ending the rule of Warlord Bork Redtooth!! Many fled north onto the plains, some fled west to join the tribe of the Angry Fists, and some probably even made their way into the wilderness of Halfbad.

Many rumours spread about the ultimate demise of Bork Redtooth. Some say he was killed on the field of battle or captured and executed by the elves. Others say he fled into hiding and is biding his time until he can return and evict the elves from the plains of the Bloody Suns… Whatever the case he took no further part in the Camapign for Hottsk…


The elves advance on the Fortress of Black Rock


Rick (left) about to perform the first of his soon-to-be-signature move - a coup de main seizure of a stronghold! I don’t think any stands were even lost in this game…!?

Winter

All armies successfully retired to winter quarters and spent the long, cold months rebuilding and preparing to continue the war in the spring…

At this point Halfbad (other Tim) had acquired 16 Prestige points, Angland (Cory) had 12, and both Aarkland (Terry) and Seroza (Rick) had 10… and the Bloody Suns (Christian) were out of the game!?

Somehow I forgot to take pictures of the armies movements on the map… ah well…

Stay tuned for YEAR TWO!!! I should (hopefully) get them done sometime later today...
