We finished the ‘Enemy in Shadows’ Warhammer Fantasy 4e adventure last night, with a suitable climax! We are now moving onto ‘Death on the Reik’. Enjoying the classic campaign immensely, and it is a joy to run in Foundry. Here is a quick screenshot of the company of heroes.

With some experience now under their belt the characters are starting to rise above the filth strewn ditches of the Empire’s cities. A focused advancement from our wizard, Fulgran, has quickly created a powerful piece of mobile artillery, useful to deploy with targeted strikes against the forces of Chaos. The slow career build of the game is a delight.
The campaign has rattled along at a good pace, taking us a tight 14 fortnightly sessions so far. It will be interesting to see how the next section progresses. A continually updated story journal keeps the threads accessible, which really helps when you have gaps and a lot to remember.
Although a moderate extra investment, the Foundry campaign modules really makes it very easy to run this big adventure online. Aesthetically rich, full of information, maps, tokens and game system support, you feel very much in the driving seat to present encounters and choices for the players.
In theory, we have two or three more years of fortnightly play. I can’t be sure we will stay the course, but will enjoy every step that we take.
