Bob Charrette, it was oriqinally intended as the
first scenario for use with our Fantasy Rules.
But, as the production of these r ule s wa s d e l a y e d
by the untimely intervention of my pet slime-

in this issue), we' ve adapted it for u se w i t h

duel of wills between the High Lord Roderick and
his evil opponent, the Dark Duke Thorin. These
two characters and their situation will be

 The Battle for the Chalice of Lentagan.
This battle scenario was originally fought,
wrth somewhat larger forces, usrng The Rules
Accordi ng to Ral for Fantasy Battles. However,
it is our solemn duty to report tha' one of our
Lord and Master Ral's pet slim>- creatures has
recently devoured the only complete manuscript of
these rules; and therefore, we will be slightly
delayed in getting them to you, our loyal fans.
F'
or this reason we' re presenting this scenari o f o r
use with our original set of fantasy battle rules,
wFth a few modifications. The astute among you
may be able to glean, from these modifications,
an rnklrng of what our fantasy battle rules will
be like; in any case, we hope to satisfy your
curiosity by having them available quite soon.
BACKGROUND
... It was deep in December of the year of the
Ox when BROTHER THADDEUS came before the HIGH LORD
RODERICK, known as the RED PRINCE, with important
news. It seemed that in the course of his restor-
ation of ancient scrolls, the monk had unearthed
some rather convincing clues concerning the
whereabouts of a mysterious and powerful artifact,
long believed lost: the CHALICE OF LENTAGAN.
Intrigued, Lord Roderi ck listened to the pious
brother's tale and determined to set out to
recover this chalice, believed to hold great
m agical p o w e r s .
Roderi ck immediately called his two loyal
lieutenants, LORD STANFORD and SIR MORGAN, to
conference. After several lengthy meetings, the
three of them managed to hammer out a plan: as
soon as the winter snows melted enough to permit
travel on the mountain passes, an envoy would be
dispatched to the protectors of this Chalice of
Lentagan, bearing gifts to demonstrate the
goodwill and noble intentions of the Red Prince.
Unbeknownst to these illustrious lords, their
planning sessions were anything but secret! An
agent of DUKE TORIN, Lord Roderi ck's neighbor and
rival, had been infiltrated into the Red Prince' s
household. This spy reported everything he over-
heard to his master, also known as the DARK DUKE,
who quickly realized that his ambitious schemes
w ould r e c e i v e q u i t e a b o o s t i n d e e d I f h e c o u l d
control the power of the legendary Chalice. To
Torl n, the next move was an obvious one: ambush!
He called his lackeys to him, and raised the
levies fo r wa r .
Brother Thaddeus had deduced from the clues
in his scrolls that the long-lost Chalice most
likely lay in the VALLEY OF CUMBERAND. Now, as
the Red Prince's armies approached this secluded,
ancient valley, his advanced scouts returned at
the gallop to report that Duke Torin's troops
had been seen approaching from the far side. An
ambush had been avoided, but a confrontation was
nevertheless unavoidable; Roderick gave the
signal for his men to assume battle positions.
Even as he did so he could make out the Dark
Duke's o w n t r o o p s , o f f i n t h e d i s t a n c e , arranging
their own ba t tl e formations.
LOCATION
The battle was fought in the Valley of
Cumberand, on and around MOUNT LANG (actually
the hidden site of the Chalice). See map.

A C UI R I N G TH CHA L I C E
To acquire the Chalice, the hidden place of
the protectors must be found and the protectors
convinced to part with their treasure.
Any leader or unit on Mount Lang may search
.or the hidden entrance. This occurs during the
!(elec Event of a turn. A unit fighting in a melee
may not search. To perform a search, total the
number of searchers (in figures t h u s , a l e a d e r
is 1, a unit of cavalry is 6, a partial unit of
infantry with 8 men left is 8, etc.) and roll 2
dice. If the die roll is less than or equal to
the number of searchers, the entrance has been
found.
Once found, the hidden place may be entered
on the Movement Event. Each leader who enters
improves the chance of convincing the protectors
by increasing the perceived "value" the protec-
tors attach to the treasure/gifts they are
offered. Use this chart to determine the
protectors' reactions:
T OTAL"VALUE " R E A C T ION OF PROTECTORS
l ess t h a n 4 Protectors attack emissaries
l es s t h a n 8 Protectors reject petition.
Emissaries magically ejected from
the hidden place, and entrance is
o nce a g ai n h i d d e n .
l ess t h a n 1 2 Protectors grant the Chalice to
petitioners.
1 2 or more Protectors grant the Chalice to
petitioners and will even fight
alongside them!
S PECIAL R U L E S
BISON RI DERS
Bison riders are mounted on " l a r g e m o u n t s . "
This grant them a +1 die modifier in melee
combat.
IMPROVED LEADERS
Lord Roderick, Duke Torin, and Sir Butkel are
"improved leaders." Sir Morgan and Lor d G o r o n a r e
ordinary leaders as they are described in the
original Rules According to Ral. Mounted "improved
leaders" move 12", and on foot they move 8". In
p ersona l c h a l l e n g e s , "improved leaders" fight
better. Roll a number of dice equal to their
"rank" as given in the forces lists; each 5 or 6
r ol l e d i s a "kill." These leaders may also take
more "kills" before they are removed from the
game. Each "kill" scored against an improved
l eader r e d u c e s h i s " rank " b y 1 . Th u s , i f Si r
Morgan rolls a 6 against Duke Torin in the
Personal Challenge Event, the Duke will be a Rank
2 leader until he is injured again.
T HE TREASURE TRAI N S
The Treasure Trains fight and move a s a u n i t
of mounted yeomen who have taken three c asual t i e s .
T HE TREASURE TRAI N S
For game purposes, the treasure trains fight
and move as a unit of mounted yeomen which has
taken 3 casualties. A treasure train which is
destroyed by the enemy will yield some o f i t ' s
treasure to the conquerors; treasure may only be
moved by a treasure train. Any cavalry unit with
3 or more men left may become a treasure train to
replace a lost train.
The treasure carried by a train has a " value "
to the protectors of the Chalice of 2d6. A
captured treasure yields an additional ld6. The
"value" of a treasure is determined only during
the negotiations with the protectors.
Treasure trains may be represented on the
tabletop by three pack mule figures. They count as
3 " s e a r c h e r s " w h e n searching for the hidden place.
THE DEMON
The demon is bound to serve Duke Torin, who
can conjure it from a ring he wears. At the s tar t
of the scenario, the demon is already present; if
it is exorcised, Duke Torin may attempt to re-
conlure it durrng the Personal Challenge Event
instead of participating in a challenge. In this
case, roll ld6; if the die roll is less than or
equal to the Duke's current "rank," the demon
appears a t h i s si de .
The demon moves 12" per turn. It. checks
morale and causes checks as a foot knight unit.
In a melee or in the case of a challenge, it
r ol l s 2 d 6 ; e a c h 5 or 6 i s a "kill" (units do not
divide to reduce casualties). When attacked by a
unit, the demon divides the attacker's die roll
hy3, but attacks by leaders in challenges are not
d i v i d e d . T h e d e mo n ma y t a k e 4 " k i l l s " b e f or e rt
is destroyed. Any unit in melee with the demon
r ecei v e s a -2 to any morale die rolls, and a -1
to any attack die rolls.
Though it may not make a personal challenge,
the demon may be challenged by an opposing
leader. The demon may never refuse such a chal-
lenge.
Due to it's extreme sensitivity to magical
forces, the demon counts as 3 "searchers" for the
h idden p l a c e .
T HE MECHANICAL K N I G H T
The mechanical knight was a gift to the Red
Prince from his ally, Prince Torfin of the
dwarves of the Grey Hills.
The knight moves 10" per turn. It checks
morale as a foot knight unit. In melee or in a
challenge, it rolls 5d6; each 5 or 6 rolled is a
"kill"(units do rot divide to reduce c asual t i e s ) .
when attacked by a unit, the knight divides the
attacker's die roll by 2, but attacks by leaders
in challenges are not divided. The knight may
take 3 "kills" .before it is destroyed. Each
"kill" taken reduces the number of dice it rolls
in combat by l.
The knight may not make a personal challenge,
but it may be challenged by an opposing leader.
The knight may never refuse such a challenge.
BROTHER THADDEUS
Brother Thaddeus functions as a leader in
accordance with the Rules Accordi ng to Ral. He
also has certain special abilities. If attached
to a unit, a priest negates the special effects
a demon would have on that unit; further, if on
any turn he is within 12" of the demon, he may
attempt to exorcis it d uring the Personal
Challenge Event. In this case, roll ld6; on a
die roll of 1 the demon is exorcised and removed
from the tabletop.
Due to his superior knowledge of the ancient
scrolls, Brother Thaddeus counts as three
searchers when searching for the hidden entrance.
H e act s a s a "value" of 2 when dealing with the
p rot e c t o r s .
THE PROTECTORS OF T HE C H A L I C E
The protectors of the Chalice are a devout
holy order, rumored to be spirits rather than men.
The are unaffected by the demon's morale effects.
The forces at the hidden site include the
GUARDIAN LORD fRank 4 leader) and 12 Protector
foot knights who are +1 in melee and +1 on all
morale and rally die rolls. The Protector knights
move 8" pe r t u r n .
Even if the Protectors are convinced to follow
the evil Duke Torin for the course of this
scenario, their innate goodness will lead them to
rebel against him in time.
THE CHALICE OF LE N TAGAN
Although it is indeed a powerful artifact,
the Chalice of Lentagan is of little use on the
battlefield. Ancient scrolls only hint at it' s
powers, and are even less informative regarding
the methods of wielding that power.
There are many rumors and legends concerning
the exact nature of the Chalice's powers. None of
them are at all well-documented, and most are
not much better than old wives' tales. One favor-
ite rumor is that a simple healing potion, when
brewed in the Chalice of Lentagan, will be imbued
with the power to raise the dead! Another version
has the Chalice rendering it's possessor totally
invulnerable to all harmful magic.
For game purposes, if the Chalice is attached
to a unit directly (or indirectly, through an
