Knock Knock, Who's there? Description Hobbit-children are innocent kids but on the other hand they're very mischievous They've managed to find a new way of having fun: Knocking on someone's door and running away laughing. But this time they forgot something really important: They've knocked on Lobelia's door. Run! little hobbits before she catch you! Participants Good: 2 Hobbit children 2 Hobbit children with slingshot (see below for the stats of Hobbit Children) Evil: Lobelia Layout The game takes place on a 56 à 56cm board with in the middle of it a Hobbit Hole. There's also a road from the west to the east. The board is covered with some trees but this doesnt count as difficult terrain because all the particpants know the area very well. Starting positions Lobelia starts in front of her hole. 10cm away from that the hobbit children are deployed (this is on the crossing) Objectives The Goodside wins if at least 3 Hobbit Children leave the western or eastern site of the board. Evil wins if Lobelia "kills" 2 Hobbit Children. A Draw for any other result. Special rules Hobbit Children: Hobbit children are very innocent and tend to play/fool around a lot. They've small legs, even for hobbits, so they may only walk 6cm each turn. They've high courage cause they don't know how dangerous some things are. Here are the stats: F/S S D A W C Points Movement 1/3+ 1 2 1 1 3 2p 6cm For 1 additional point you can upgrade them with a slingshot, this counts as a bow with a Strenght of 2 with a range of 24cm Fury: Lobelia is really angry, so she doesn't need to make any Courage-test for whatever what reason. Getting Caught: -The hobbit children dont mean to kill Lobelia, and Lobelia dont mean to kill the children. If someone counts as a casualty(by getting "killed" or failing courage-tests) they count as being caught. Lobelia slaps the children really hard so they dont do it again and form no more disruption of the peace. -So everyone could get "killed" (but in the realtime they dont die). Therefor Lobelia's rule, The Umbrella is not migthier than the sword, doesnt count. -In addition if a Hobbit Kid succees in wounding Lobelia by a ranged attack(slingshot or throwing stones) it doesn't inflict a wound. She is pushed back by 2cm in the opposite direction. The Terror of the shire: The Children are very afraid of Lobelia. So they need to take courage test for charging her(just like she causes terror). Your opinion I like to know your opinion about this Scenerio cause im a bit new in making scenario's. So post all your advice and/or comments. If it's good scenario i might post it in an article. Edit 1: I changed the objectives Edit 2: Children's courage lowered, edited "Caught" for the ranged weapons and added a new special rule: The terror of the shire |

The hobbit children had courage5 but anyway, i changed the objectives: The Goodside wins if at least 3 Hobbit Children leave the western or eastern site of the board. Evil wins if Lobelia kills 2 Hobbit Children. A Draw for any other result. |

Cool idea! The only problem is what models to use. Lobelia being the biggest problem... |

Nice scenario! It sounds fun. King Elessar the Uniter wrote: Cool idea!

For the kids you can use miniatures from Hasslefree. http://www.hasslefreeminiatures.co.uk/pack.php?pack=1600 They doesn't look like hobbits and are not very LotR-stylish, but it's the only alternative I can think of, except sculpting some kids... |

You can play it with 4 easterlings and Boromir if you just use the right stats, although it is much funnier to play with "real" minis. |

Here's an idea... get off your lazy butts and SCULPT SOME! I think the hasslefree kids could make great hobbits... even without converting them... although I think a running pose would be more appropriate |

Quote: Evil wins if Lobelia kills 2 Hobbit Children
what an evil b****! I think they should just be captured, like in base contact or something - removed at the end of the turn. rather than killed! how savage for a lady who uses an umbrella to batter the enemy. |
