  • DS366 | Wesnoth | Echoes of Invasion: The Battlefield | Part 6 of 7

    Heppa and Tric enjoy a discussion of magic theory with Cwuml, a silver mage.

    • Scene 13
    • Scene 14
    • Scene 15
    • GM Notes

      Tric’s story about using symbols to teleport between established locations was inspired by the teleportation system in the video game, Betrayal at Krondor. I’ve never played it myself, but Tric’s player did when she was younger.

      Our character art by Del Borovic and the map we refer to (by me!) can be found here.

      Our music is sampled from Return to Wesnoth by Matthias Westlund (aka West), licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0, part of The Battle for Wesnoth Project. Visit them at wesnoth.org.

      • GM Notes

        Lots of units from the Battle for Wesnoth video game are going to come out in this epic battle, as I’m sure you can imagine. We had a Goblin Pillager and an Orcish Crossbowman menacing Heledd in her Rhaessa disguise, and we referred to Tric not being Dunefolk enough to be a Horse Archer. Endathalas was chewed on by a Ghast, and Tric encouraged him to be an Elvish Rider, which is the upgrade of the Elvish Scout. And of course, there are the Chocobones, which I always find a real challenge in the video game, as well as Terwaen’s promotion from Knight to Paladin. We also finally get our first Silver Mage!

          • Note: A pretty powerful monsoon rolled through during this part of the play session. Please bear with us as we incorporate it into the story. I’ve cleaned it out of the audio as best I can, but there’s only so much one can do against the power of nature.
