Welcome to our first Frostgrave battle report! We begin our Frostgrave campaign with Akashara the Witch and Namira the Illusionist. These wizards will attempt to gain some magical power from a stone that has been discovered in the small swamp town of Toadbarrow.

At 04:25 when Bailey takes the time to FILP her barbarian end over end as he leaps across the rock was probably the best part of this battle report! Gaming with flourish makes my day.

High quality CGI here on Dice Chatter.
Great battle report. These summarised format is quite much better than 2+ hours of recording the game, very much straightforward. I'll subscribe.

Really appreciate it. I feel like audiences don’t have the time for 2+ hour reports. Just trying to give folks a second option.
An absolute crime there's no frostgrave cowboys box. Top tier report!
Never played Frostgrave, this was really interesting!

This is a really solid battle report. The random monster appearances, the narrative, and the mix of spells made this a fun game to watch. Thank you!
also, i really recommend giving your squad members Names and quickly recording big achievements. can create cute little stories for the smaller troops this way if they survive long enough. or dramatic deaths, etc.
"Those trolls are going home hungry." Except for the corpses of all the folks who died, including the thug and barbarian who killed each other. Their corpses, evidently, were left where they fell. Presumably, the trolls heard that scuffling or smelled the blood, and scavenged the remains. The real questions is whether they settled the matter of who got the corpses amiably, or if they fought over it. But I think there's enough bodies for both. EDIT: Didn't wait until the end of the video, where it's revealed the Barbarian survived. (We can assume the thug died, because no one cared). So unless they found the other bodies lying around, those trolls definitely threw down over the body of the thug.

When group activating , everyone has to do there first action (in any order) then all there 2nd actions. cant cast spell with wizard,move then go to soldiers in group. would be cast spell then each soldier takes an action/move , then do 2nd actions. Great first bat rep tho :)
Them battle moves in the intro....... He's like a real life Gandalf! 🤓👍
there was an article about how swingy d20's are and how frostgrave could be played with only a tiny bit less chaos and much more fun by using 1d8 + 1d10 instead. making fails a 2 and crits an 18
Great report! Not sure if I missed it and it's intentional, but you may have calculated the spell casting difficulties incorrectly! Aligned schools are at +2 difficulty, and neutral schools are +4 difficulty! (pages 23 and 19, 2nd edition rulebook).

I end up did doing them correctly (at least 95% positive). The numbers in the bottom corner of the spell that shows up on screen is the "base" spell cost from the book. Honestly, I should probably go through and delete those numbers due to so many wizard's casting spells at different values. Hmmm, that's gonna be a lot of work.
Criminally underwatched, keep at it!

Introduction: "...blasted magic creeps..." Jump cut to Donny jumping around in the snow in a child's fancy dress costume and wellies. :-D Can Akashara really get away with calling herself a witch or a wizard if she has yet to successfully cast any spells?

Excellent work you two. Battle Reports on an absolutely high level! Frostgrave man... Frostgrave. Now it begins: Watching your Chapter One with the Well of Dreams and Sorrows reminds me of our adventure with the same name and all the 'shit' that happened. And that's one of the greatest features and the awesomeness of this game. Same chapters different stories. Like good movies... Excitement for Chapter Two commences.

Really great battle report! The filming is done well, the narration is clear and the editing really brings it all together. I’m already looking forward to the rest of the campaign! Frostgrave seems like a very fun and interesting game, and certainly less intimidating looking than anything to do with warhammer, maybe even the right game to use to try to rope some of my non-wargaming friends into the hobby.

Great battle report! Your style made the game flow smoothly and quickly and even kept my daughter’s attention - and she’s never shown any interest in Frostgrave. The way you did the video is making me rethink the way I shoot my battle videos. One rule I’ll point out in Bailey’s favor is Telekinesis can’t target the central treasure until after it has been picked up (and then dropped).

Hey Chris! Check out pg. 176 in the main FG 2nd ed. book. Its an optional rule, but a good one!
Man, your wizard did not have her coffee that morning huh?
Namira wouldn't be able to move after Teleporting right? Magical movement counts as all movement. Like, I could cast push on an archer and move him forward, but the archer couldn't move after. He could shoot, but because he was magically moved, he wouldn't have any other options. Also, I forget when, but you had an archer shoot and move 6. If Movement is your first action then it's 6". Your 2nd action is always half of your movement.
