This week we have the party trying to protect not just Gareth but his ship in the Battle for the Skimmer. As the larger vessel pulls off more stunts to try and stop them; permanently, the party need to defend not only the ship but themselves as the battle rages on.
So strap in as tonight’s going to be a bumpy one in tonight’s map!
Battle for the Skimmer
519ThBaSk
The distance between the ships will make a lot of the combat hard – that is before boarding lines and boats come out to play. The party then can take the fight to the bigger ship or remain on the deck of the shorter, smaller ship to fight from there if need be.
The ships are moving fast enough that only quick thinking or magic will prevent people from disappearing into open ocean behind the ships. So that’s a hazard the party will need to brave as they fight it out during the Battle for the Skimmer.
A simple one tonight with some small modifications to existing ships. Four textures were put into the waves, three colour variations and then something to add a bit more depth into the water that dulled some of the choppy wave parts.
The ships were luckily existing assets that I added more rope. Masts and sails to to get to where I wanted them to look. Barrels suit the narrative this week with them slowing down and impacting on the hull of the skimmer.
Thanks for joining for another map night this week. Don’t forget that we have a few more nights left this week so make sure to come back each day to see what I add to this adventure. And lastly, as always, don’t forget to roll with advantage,
