Midnight Raid at the Stable Yard
Read Aloud
Orcs hack through the feed sacks as rain darkens the boards. Behind the hay bales, a leather-clad agent raises a pulsing crystal and points toward the broken fence. One orc kicks over a lantern, and the yard falls into shadow beyond the nearest pool of light.

Battlefield Zones
1
Wagon Row
Rotten wagons crowd the yard; shafts grant half cover, and feed sacks make the ground difficult terrain.
2
Feed Stack
Three hay bales provide three-quarters cover; the agent keeps the leyline focus here until the escape route opens.
3
Broken Fence
Broken rails, wet boards, and a narrow gate lead into the dark road beyond.
Terrain Levers
- Cut a lantern rope to plunge one 10-foot circle into darkness.
- Kick over a feed pile to create difficult terrain and scatter burning fodder.
- Break the fence at AC 11, HP 10, opening a route for escape.
- Shove a wagon shaft to gain half cover or block a 5-foot lane.
- Douse a lantern with spilled water, ending its dim light.
