Fistful of Lead: Fantasy

 Last night we had another remote playtest of the upcoming Fistful of Lead Fantasy rules. With the combat and retinue build mechanics worked out, it's time for the Magic rules.For this game a brave Mage walking the Path of the Elements faced off against a vile Necromancer and his Undead minions. 

When the local woodsman went missing, the local sheriff went to investigate. He too disappeared. The Duke himself asked Voltos, a mage of some power, to find out what was going on.

Voltos and a few of his adventuring friends.

Voltos quickly realizes what's been causing the disappearances, but it's a good idea to investigate the village for survivors.

The cabin door is smashed and the woodsman, his wife and child are captured. Who knows what terrible fate awaits them!
Voltos is wounded by a fould magicks from Gravestone. He retreats to rest.
A fireball rips through the undead (unfortunately one of the Duke's men too).
Most of the undead are crushed, but the captives are being lead off.
Voltos casts Wall of Flames and blocks the line of retreat. The adventurers sweep in and dispatch the skeletons and freeing the captives. Huzzah!

Gravestone, his forces depleted, slinks off into the woods. No doubt plotting his revenge!
