Nordic Weasel Games recently released the second, expanded edition of "Five Leagues from the Borderlands", and I was so excited to try it, but I just didn't have any fantasy stuff to play with. Over the course of a month, I put together a modest bit of terrain and collected some fantasy/medieval minis, and tried to get them ready. In the end, I couldn't hold out anymore. As such, please forgive the primer grey and black figures. :(
"Five Leagues" is a fantasy solo campaign skirmish game, designed with easy to use rules that are optimal for solo play without being boring. You start with a party of (usually) four Heroes and four Followers, and a few villages suffering the depredations of Outlaws, Border Tensions, and Dark Secrets. Each of these Threats has a rating, and your goal is to bring them to zero, eliminating the Threats and rescuing the villages.
