Heinrich was taken out of action but after the defeat of the Skaven Commander, Magnus the Bright healed him up. It was an difficult battle with these more dangerous enemies. It also included a stairway to the next level (grate on the far left). Things would not get any easier though as the second room contained even more including a commander. The freed prisoner joined our troupe as a 'henchman'.

We wisely choose to stay at the doorway and killed the ratmen one by one as they charged us. Opening the door to the first room we discovered a batch of Skaven Warriors (beastmen figures) and a prisoner (spearman). A fairly simple set of charts determines the size of each room or corridor and it's doors, contents and denizens. The Advanced Heroquest rules contain a system whereby a party of adventurers can dungeoncrawl without need of a GM and we used those rules. and the miniatures we chose to represent those characters, positioned at the entrance to the first hallway. These are the pre-made characters we used. PDF's of the rules are readily available and we already have plenty of figures, dice and a dry-erasable mat (to use in place of dungeon corridor card pieces). That none of us have Advanced Heroquest proved to be no barrier at all.

Tim, Terrence, Mattias and I dipped into the past last week with a try at the GW classic Advanced Heroquest.
