Vättar vs Dökkalfar: AAR

Another great game of Dragon Rampant

This time my Vättar would be facing my friend Håkans Dark elves.
We rolled for scenario and I would defend a huge roosting fire, earning me one point each turn from turn three and onwards. Håkan would have to stop me before the 10points would be roosted and eaten...
We decided to use piggies and other critters stolen from the Elves.

Put another piggie on the barbie...

The Dark elves rode these small dragons (Elite riders), I had a unit of Scouts in the forest ready and waiting for enemy movement and I kept my trolls as a sort of mobile reserve on the ruined altar.

 

 Dark elf infantry deployed.

The Drake riders was forced to charge into the terrain and the prepared Vättar.

 

Another unit of Vätte Scouts, these are hacked to pieces by the Dark elves.

My big bear charges, payback time...

But nooo.... it was driven back.

The drakeriders was driven back. I guess cavalry in tough terrain is not that of a great idea...

 I started to enjoy the roosted pigs...

Dark elves are nearly there to put out the fire... nooo....

Dark elves scouts inflicts damage on my bear.

The bear charges in an attempt to stop the elves.
 

But was driven back again with more damage.

The Vätte berserks charges in...
 

But they are also drivven back...

The Elves are having it a hard time struggling forward as the bear hit again...  

But this time the bear is the victorious and the elves are driven back.
'

My chieftain had deployed to protect the fire and the dinner...

The elves attacked the bear, wanting to have the elven leader forward for a more combined assault.

The Elven lord is just about to charge in against my chieftain and his firewatchers...

The drake riders where finally defeated. A really nice work with the scouts using the forest to lure them into all the branches and roots... Unfortunately they had also taken a beating and was heading home.  

The Vätte chieftain somehow managed to drive the Elven lord back just enough to give my trolls time to close in...

A lone Vätte scout is heading home... He and his friends had defeated a unit of Elite riders and I am more then happy with them.

The Trolls finishes the combat with large clubs... The Elven lord and the last of his men are sent home and I can continue with my barbecue... 

Another really tense game of Dragon Rampant. It could easily had ended in turn four/five had Håkan just had a bit more luck with some dices.
Really fun game.
