The Overgrown Ruins Battle Report Part 2

Go here for Part 1:  http://apostlesofcontagion.blogspot.com/2021/07/the-overgrown-ruins.html


Continuing from the last post.  The Brainleaf Zombie that was Zeke Runner shambled into Duke Tuffnow.


Duke, being horrified by now zombified version of Zeke, quickly dispatches him with his Servo Claw.

Jo Buff opens fire on the Goliath leader, not seriously hurting him but instead making him just dive for cover next to his trusty Sump Croc.

A Goliath makes his way through the smoke to attack a zombie.

Slade Tuffnow fires his grenade launcher and then promptly runs out of ammo.  The Goliath's don't take any chances and throw a smoke grenade at him anyways.

The Goliaths continue their advance towards the Orlock's battle lines.

The Goliaths are having a lot of issues with the carnivorous plants.

Creed Freebork somehow escaped the Shadrack Spine-overgrown ruins with a loot crate and he is on his way to the opposite board edge.  He takes some fire along the way but continues his advance.

Another Brainleaf Zombie rises from a dead body.

Thadd backs up seeing the Goliath getting closer.  Unfortunately Jo Firber is pinned and the hired gun is seriously injured lying face down in the dirt.

The Goliath with the huge axe charges into the scum and slices him in half.

The Goliaths cluster together to make a final push.

Slade Tuffnow watches as a Goliath is pinned down by a Barbed Venomgorse.

More Zombies rise from the dead and spot a new target.

As the Goliaths advance Slade tries to get out of the way but gets knocked down by the Barbed Venomgorse.

Duke takes a hit and gets pinned.

The Zombies swarm Jo Buff.

The Goliaths continue to advance.

The Zombies roam the ruins in the center of the battlefield.

Creed Freebork made it off the opposite board edge and escaped with a loot crate.  The Goliaths got their entire gang off the board, except for the ones who went out of action.  The Orlocks didn't bottle.

In the end while the Goliaths won, the Orlocks made 162 credits and acquired a new Juve from their settlement.  They also lost the Juve, Red Groffnark.

The Goliaths escaped and acquired another ganger or two from their scavenging on their way back to their territory.

The rivalry between the two factions will only grow stronger from here on out.  Duke is out for revenge, and Angelica is off on her own quest to redeem herself in Duke's eyes.


I hope you enjoyed this battle report, it was one of my favorite games of Necromunda that I have ever played.

My next post will travel back in time 10,000 years to the Age of Heresy.  Until then.....
