Battle six involves a strike deep into greenskin country by the men of Boarwick.
A small mobile force of knights supported by the dragon Caledrath and Elf rangers attempt to take the town of Orctun (pronounced Orctoon in these harsh northern lands).
The invaders.
Arrayed against them is a strong greenskin force supported by Dwarfs, Trolls and a Giant.
The Elf rangers emerge from the woods to shoot at the dreaded Trolls.
The knights charge home and have a fierce battle with the doughty Dwarfs which leaves them disordered.
A ravens eye view of the battle.
The Barons knights are hard to stop.
After finding that their arrows bounce off the giant the Elves fall back into cover.
A pair of trolls attack the open flank of the knights.
But they actually come off worse against the gallant knights.
Having chased off the Elves the giant attacks the rear of the knights. He is an angry looking beggar!.
Despite losing a couple of knights their morale holds (rolling 10) and they push forward to break the badly battered Dwarfs.The nearest knights under command of their general break the Orcs too!.
Caledrath makes mincemeat of the trolls.
And suddenly there is nowt but the Goblin general and Gorbag the mage in front of the Boarwickians.
The Goblin general flees the field.
Orctun is taken by the Barons men. Until Orctun is liberated the Orc warriors and archers will be demoralised.
Another cracking battle even if it was rather short.
