The Levy Road Ambush

Read Aloud

Horses rear as armed soldiers step from the thorn trees, their provincial badges bright against mud-stained cloaks. The captain kicks an overturned cart aside and points toward the toll gate while archers take aim from the ditch. Behind the trees, a rope bridge creaks over a dark drop.

Battlefield Zones

1
The Levy Road

Muddy Road: overturned carts provide half cover; movement is difficult in the deepest ruts.

2
The Thorn Line

Thorn Trees: dense branches provide three-quarters cover to creatures hiding within; moving through costs extra effort.

3
The Toll Gate

Broken Toll Gate: the splintered gate and toll booth provide half cover; the concealed rope bridge lies beyond the eastern trees.

Terrain Levers

  • A cart can be shoved into a ditch, blocking the road.
  • Cut the toll-gate chain to drop the beam across the road.
  • A rope bridge hidden behind the eastern thorn trees offers the ambushers a retreat.
  • A creature in a shallow ditch is heavily obscured from creatures on the road until it stands.
