Pictures of Battle: Everblight vs Khador

Bit of a scenery and miniature showcase from my recent game...

Battle For The Devil's Skulls

The Devil's Skulls rise from the ground at arcane hotspots allowing the Warcasters or Warlocks that control them to boost their mystical might.

Here, the Circle Orboros and Khadoran forces clashed, closing on the hideous Temple of Skulls.

Druids slunk through the shadows, pushing forward then pulling back in a delicate feint.

... drawing the Khador Men-o-War out of position.

Three Khadoran Warjacks built a terrifying wall in front of their Warcaster.

But that didn't slow the advance of Kaya Wildborne and her Wold Guardian.

An Argus sped forward to eliminate the Widowmakers lying in ambush but was cut down by rifle fire.

But this too was a feint of sorts. A Woldwyrd floated onto the Temple's platform and hurled mystical energy at the enemy Warcaster.

And the Wold Guardian strode forward. Once again, Sorscha had strayed too close to the front lines.

The Wold Guardian pummelled her already wounded body until she was beaten to submission.

Assassination Run

Retribution of Scyrah (Tim) vs Khador (Gill)

Withdrawing to nearby village, the Khador forces rally and make a counter strike against the Retribution of Scyrah, taking up firing positions in the graveyard and creeping forward between the buildings. However the Retribution assault is devastating and though a missed opportunity allows the Dragoon horseman to get back into the fight perilously wounded when he could have been dispatched, the battle is ferocious.

The assassin run planned involving the Retribution Fane Knight is balked by a well-placed Bombard shot but Kommander Sorscha overestimates her ability and strays too close to the enemy lines. Leaping forward and sucking her into range with his telekinesis, Adeptus Rahn unleashes a blast from his power gauntlets which is followed by a cascade of explosive power from his Battle Mages.

Barely before it began, the battle is ended as the Khador forces scatter once more.

The Twisted Trap

Retribution of Scyrah (Tim) vs Khador (Gill)

The setup here was an ambush staged on a Khador convoy working its way along a sunken road in the woods but it went horribly wrongly for the Retribution of Scyrah when the sunken nature of the road created something of a fortress with bushes along the rim functioning as parapets.

Despite falling back to the treeline in the hopes of luring the Khador forces out (which worked), the assault that followed almost overwhelmed the overconfident Retribution army before their last remaining warrior won the day.
