Apocalypse Quartet Scenario: The Suburbs

The suburbs are quiet, very few were here when the alarms screamed, and very few bothered to come home when they should. No survivors back then, but bandits are not unknown to this place.


Zombie movement: Before the end of the player’s turn every zombie moves one square towards a character if it has line of sight, otherwise they stand still.
Zombie attack: If adjacent to a character, the zombie will attack with a Tier 1, Damage 1 attack at the end of the player turn. If adjacent to more than one character, the attack is randomly selected.
Zombies cannot be injured, only downed.
Bandit movement: Doesn't move.
Bandit attack: Ignoring it's own building walls, if the bandit has Line of Sight to a character then it will attack with a Tier 2 Damage 2 SR/LR.
Once injured, the bandit drops a rifle (Bandit's Rifle) which can be picked up and secured as normal loot.

End of the game achievements :
If secured, Bandit's Rifle can be equipped like a normal weapon (Long Range: Damage 2; Scrappiness 1)

Warhammer Underworlds: Hrothgorn's Mantrappers

Last warband painted. As usual, I tend to get a little impatient when near the finishing line, and while acceptable, these miniatures deserve a better paint job imo.

So this is my setup, I pitted my cube bois vs some WIP beastgrave ghouls


TURN 1 - moved my grey dude behind cover and boris into a shooting position


Successful attack with two dice (gunslinger)
 Hazmat moved next to grey dude and green dude into the bushes in front of the house. 




TURN 2 - Boris shot (and pushed) the zombie in front of him and green dude danced the macarena and was able to secure the first piece of loot.
Hazmat shot the zombie in front of it in order to push him further away from the building entrance.


Zombies see boris, Zombies attack Boris, and he gets pushed back.
 
 
TURN 3/TURN 4 - Grey dude shoots the zombie in front of him and clears the entrance of the farm and snatches a lootbox. Hazmat goes gun-ho inside the farm. Boris shoots Old man Henderson.
Green dude shoots the zombie in front of it and goes inside.

Green dude gets attacked by the zombie into an injured state.

Grey dude gets downed


Old Man Henderson drops his axe (he dropped it on turn 3, but I forgot to place the token on the board)


TURN 5 - Hazmat suit runs outside, Grey dude stands up and snatches the lootbox, Boris helps green dude get up, and the Green dude grabs the axe and sprints towards the exit.


TURN 6 - Boris keeps zombies away from the entrance, while the rest of the boys run from the zombie and try to secure 3 more loot boxes.


Grey dude has a weapon malfunction and goes down


TURN 7 - Green dude jumps into action into the zombie infested house, Boris goes with him guns blazing. downing a zombie. Green dude gets pushed into a lootbox.


TURN 8 - Lots of running away, Green dude was downed and Hazmat was able to get away with yet another loot box.

Loot secured: Old Henderson's Axe + 4 loot boxes
Loot Rolls: 6, 6, 8, 11
Rerolled: the 8 into a 6 (Boris job) and a 6 into a 9 (Green dude's job)
