Keep the King's Road Open
Read Aloud
The supply wagon lurches as goblins loose arrows from the broken toll arch. A huge bugbear steps into the road and raises a stolen lantern toward the canvas while two wolves circle the mule. The road is blocked, the bell rope is within reach, and the wagon will not survive a long fight.

Battlefield Zones
1
King's Road
Broken road between leaning marker stones; wagons move at half speed here.
2
Gate and Bridge
A collapsed toll arch leaves one stone pillar standing; creatures beside it have half cover.
3
Free Passage
An abandoned wagon blocks the road; its canvas burns easily and gives light obscurement when burning.
Terrain Levers
- Cut the hanging toll bell to startle every creature within 10 feet.
- Tip the cracked cart into a 15-foot line, creating difficult terrain until moved.
- Kick loose the gate beam to drop a 10-foot square of rubble.
