Edge of the Abyss: News from High Command

24th Aug 2017

Dave



While the campaign across Mantica rages on, the Abyss has made key victories at Rhyn-Durfaris and the Twilight Glades, while the Green Lady still securely holds the Forest of Galahir. Most of the fighting has focused around the Edges of the Abyss for the moment, with the forces of Good desperately trying to hold back the forces of evil. Neither side, however, has quite managed to gain control there.  

Scattered reports filter in from the front and a few have been deemed appropriate to spread to the troops, the victories to stir their hearts, the defeats to remind them of the danger we are all in. For Mantica! And remember faithful commanders, you can keep up to date on the latest events on the frontline be checking here.

Brief Summary 

The young King Lexander of Macedon (just north of their arch enemies, Spartha) having never known defeat, marches his army towards the Edge of the Abyss seeking glory. Instead, his army is defeated by an Undead host led by Mhorgoth;

Lexander must head back to Macedon to regroup.  

Sorry for the unpainted army. Usually my stuff is painted but I wanted to try a historical list vs fantasy.
