Blackstone Fortress - start of the campaign.

So last night Tiger King and myself sat down and started the Blackstone Fortress campaign - “search for the hidden vault”. We picked a couple of tough characters each. Tiger King had Amallyn Shadowguide and UR-025, whisky I had Janus Draik and Pious Vorne. The expedition stared with 2 challenges which we were singular unsuccessful with - in fact due to forgetting the combat rules pious managed to pick up 3 grievous wounds … but she did pick up some archotech in the second challenge. 

We then had a combat session to complete- which meant I had to focus on getting the rules right - which we did (although we did forget a couple of reinforcement rolls at the start). 

The encounter was a fairly straightforward one with 2 units of traitor guard, which the ranger and robot made fairly short work of, where as I continued to roll badly …. Apart from high on the reinforcement table, so none turned up and average on the event table so that the escape lift turned up without too much effort. The Asuryani ranger (Tiger King) did snatch a discovery token from Janus, which seemed a little mean, but possibly in character for the campaign. 

After we had completed the combat, we had to end the expedition as Tiger King had to go home, so before the next game we have to do the Precipice stage for recovery and buying kit, before a new expedition. The early end might have an impact on the Legacy cards. 

Hopefully the group can get together before the end of August for the next round.
