In this Led Zeppelin-esque, Tolkien-inspired mega-clash, five armies - representing good versus evil - fight it out for the future of Middle Earth at the base of the Misty Mountain.
An army of Orcs and Goblins was defeated by an army consisting of Men, Elves and Dwarves. Each side had roughly 600 points. Rules used were Midgard.
Highlights included a monstrous dwarf bombard cannon ball taking off the head of the Goblin king, killing him stone dead, when he rolled a double 1 for a risk to generals test; a unit of Orc boar chariots bouncing off a dwarven shield wall; Goblin light riders humbling some Elven horse...and many more.
The big disappointments were, respectively, The Dark Lord and the Queen of Light. They were 4 star scorcerers, although they managed to fluff most of their spell castings turn after turn and didn't have a huge influence on the battle.
Either way, Middle Earth was saved for the forces of good and the evil ones were banished forever. Well, until next time at least....
