Battle Troll: the Gentlemen callers

Dan, Howard and I had a three way game of Battle Troll.  Howard's band had captured the beautiful Brunhilda, and wedding plans were being made, whhen Dan and I showed up with romantic dreams of our own.
Whomever was able to sweep the lady off her feet (and the board), would be remembered in the sagas.


 Howard has word the rival gentleman callers are coming, and arranges his defense.
 Dan arrives first, and draws first blood killing a thrall.
 I arrived shortly after, but my warlord recieved a slight arrow wound that was holding him back.  Either way, things were looking grim for Howard caught in between us.
 In the chaos,  Brunhilda slipped her bonds and made a run for it, in the direction of Dan's camp.
 Dan followed her, since she was the prize after all.  I gave chase and made an amazing movement roll (three 6's) and was able to cut him off.
 Using a classic football move, Dan threw his blockers against my wings, used his warlord to make a hole, then his hearthguard grabbed the girl and made a run straight up the middle.
Dan runs off the board with his new love.  Another romantic saga concludes!

Game: 28mm, Dan's figures a mix of Gripping Beast plastic and metal, Crusader, Black Tree.  Houses from Acheson Creations.
