1.
GAME:  Bring Your Own MESBG Battle Company
GENERA:  Fantasy Armies
HOST:  Craig Murray
RULES:  Games Workshop's Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game
SCALE: ​28mm
PLAYER SLOTS:  ​2
SCENARIO: 
Time Period: Late Third Age. Bring your own Battle Company, as specified in the MESBG Battle Companies book.  I only have the one force so it will be a pretty one-sided fight if you don't bring one!
 
Battle Companies are typically a group of 5-7 low-point figures from the various MESBG armies.  So leave your hero figures at home ... unless they just want to watch.  A typical game is complete in an about an hour.  Multiple games are entirely possible.  This time is intended as a practice opportunity for those who are just getting started with the game and want to build confidence with the game mechanics.

It's up to the lads of Legio IX 'Hispania' to sort them out. Primus Pilus Lucius Duccius's orders are to take a group of three centuria into the Dementea lands, destroy their sacred places, capture their wicked Pristess, and bring her back to the Legion's Legate to face his personal brand of justice. Piece of cake. If you like to work yourself into a frenzy, get naked, and set your hair on fire then this is the game for you.
