Starting the tutorial of Rise of the Goblins. We have Krutzbecht as Skirmisher, Jonas the Kind as Disciple, Roganna the Shade as Wildlander and Jaes the Exile as Runemaster.

If you played this quest, you know what happens to the first her who explores the way down. That happened to be Krutzy. After Jonas kindly rezzed the Dwarf, the door was opened and here came the hordes of Zombies. Roganna ran over next to the pile of bodies but both her stats said she was the wrong person to try to attempt testing it. So Krutz ended up going over there and taking care of it.

But after the zombies fell dead, the next wave in the form of barghests came. Krutzbeck could not pass any willpower tests worth anything and with the Barghest Howls doing 2 heart per yelp, the consistent yelping put Krutzbeck to sleep.

Roganna was able to use her ability to do damage to the master dog though, which put him out of commission. The heroes then fought back as they herded the pack down to one mangy mutt. It was then that the stray took off running... apparently some cultists dropped in. Yay... Crow Hags. Just what I wanted to see. On top of that a huge Ettin the heroes had to kill. Our battered heroes made a stand as the Ettin lumbered forward.

Although the party was pretty much battered, they hardly took any damage due to the fact the Ettin's attacks kept missing and the Hags were fairing no better. After weaning down the pesky bird women to one minion, the heroes pressed the attack on The Abomination. Damage here, damage there and finally Krutzbecht attacked twice, his last attack activating his Heroic Feat, which pretty much sealed the win for the Heroes.

Dang... this is only the tutorial mission. Better step up the game real quick.
