Siege on the Gangrenous (Session 223)

 SESSION 223 (Side Session): Siege on the Gangrenous PART 1

The B(oris)-Gang pushes into the village of the Gangrenous Orks.

 

Day 152 continued (13.21/0405/0504/0404): Moving through the orc stained wasteland the sub-hex clearing was completed with ease. As morning began to wane they marched towards the box canyon opening that would surely lead to the Village of the Gangrenous Orcs. This frontal assault a day after the shenanigans presented a pig-man force ready for mayhem whom once again cared nothing about white flags. The tanks worked their way up the path to the gate as arrows rained down and then burning oil rolled down the sloping trail to the village palisade to slow the advance. Willy disappeared after Agolloch took control and erred in the teleport. We thought he was dead, but Ramrod found him inside a building. Agolloch had missed the roof top target and ended up midair inside of the structure. Willy was roughed up but alive. 

The orcs were not willing to die at the gate and the losses were mounting for them. The orcs used copious burning oil to cover their retreat. They disappeared from sight leaving the hobos to dig them out of their holes.

 

The village overall was marginally illuminated even during the day. It was unwilling to give up its secrets even with an invisible Ramrod observing from a roof top. They decided to explore the structures to the west of the gate (area 2). 

 

Entering a warehouse like structure, full of rubbish, they encountered their fist sub-clan defense force that vomited forth from a large hole in the back of the building. A horde of orcs and a pair of ogres defended a crude barricade that just could not stand. A bunch of them darted back down the hole. Once more leaving it up to our gang to pursue and they did.

 

Descending into the earth they entered the lair of the Gnasher Clan.
