This Wednesday's game saw Derek's Demons having to break into a guarded building to steal a dangerous piece of treasure. The Demons, of course, attacked at night.
 |
| Initial deployment. A flying demon has managed to avoid the guards in the surrounding area and stands at the door of the inn, where the artefact is stored. |
 |
| The flying demon is joined by an ape and a hopping vampire. A SWAT trooper and a veteran cop are on the scene. |
 |
| The ape works to pry loose the artifact,while the cops and the supernatural investigator close in. |
 |
| The Taoist Sorcerer fires a fireball at the investigator and two SWAT troopers, killing the troopers and recoiling the investigator, who used his acrobat trait to jump clear. |
 |
| The ape frees the artefact and starts to make his way off the table. The other demons prepare to run interference. |
 |
| The investigator attempts to exorcise the flying demon and get through to the ape, but he loses the melee and is recoiled. |
 |
| A flying demon is taken out by a SWAT trooper. Note the zombie that has appeared, attracted by the concentration of supernatural power. |
 |
| With the investigator at bay, the veteran cop and SWAT trooper pursue the ape. |
 |
| The ape manages to evade it's pursuers and escapes, protected by the sorcerer and three cultists. |
 |
| The flying demon attacks the SWAT trooper, who is distracted by the sight of the zombie greedily feasting on one of his colleagues. |
This was a fairly quick game. Derek managed to get his protagonist, the sorcerer, to make an early breakthrough by making a hole in my cordon. The scenario dictated that my team was spread out, therefore vulnerable to such an attack. My protagonist failed to take full advantage of the activation dice failures as he kept failing his rolls! This left him standing around for long periods, the first time this has happened in any of the games we have played. Still, the game told another good filmic story.
