Save the Grain Wagons
Read Aloud
Axes bite into the lead wagon as four raiders rush from the ditch. A broad man in a fur-lined coat plants himself beside the rear wagon and shouts, “Take the horses. Burn the grain.” The driver is trapped, the road is blocked, and the rear wagon’s iron chest is already being pried open.

Terrain Levers
- A cut harness drops the lead wagon across the road, creating half cover and blocking movement.
- A spilled oil jar makes a 10-foot slick; fire ignites it for 1 round.
- A frightened draft horse breaks loose if struck, dragging its wagon 20 feet straight ahead.
