Finally had a chance to run my Meadows of Mayhem system for our club, using 20mm-ish figures from Splintered Light. This is a fast paced, simple, skirmish game. There were 6 bands in total, the Fanged Horde (foxes, weasels, rats, plus friends) versus the Woodland Alliance (otters, rabbits, mice and squirrels, plus friends).
The table at the start of the game....
Weasels in line with rats... notice the bear mercenaries participating...
But the mice and squirrels have a panda bear ally... rabbits to the flank of the mice...
The otters quickly cross the stream with their swim ability...
A huge melee erupts, as mice and squirrels engage the rats... some squirrels climb the cabin roof to get to the rear of their enemies...
In the middle, a Wolverine under bloodlust advanced on his own, leaving his weasel allies behind... despite being swarmed by the rabbits and their spotted leopard general, the Wolverine would prove impossible to kill...
The otters and foxes chase each other around a wee cabin on the far flank...
The melee on the other flank gets bloodier and bloodier, in particular for the mice and squirrels...
First the mice and squirrels flee, mostly being cut down shortly afterwards... then the rest of the Woodland Alliance reaches the army break point...
Soon, all that are left are the Fanged Horde.... the Otters, mostly in tact, are able to slip away via the stream.
All in all, this was a fast, fun game.... the result was somewhat lopsided (the Woodland Alliance was destroyed!), but that happens sometimes. We will have to try this again.
Thanks for reading!
