Die Schlacht bei den Trollzacken 1988

A tactical war game which is part of the story of the german RPG supplement 'Mehr als 1000 Oger' from the german role-playing game 'Das Schwarze Auge'. Ogres have been banding together and destroyed outlying cities. Now they are marching towards the capital. The emperor has called for all able men and women to rise and defend against this threat. The game is played on a hex map showing the terrain of the battlefield. The imperial units consist of cavalry, infantry, bowmen, militia and leaders (coincidentally the RPG adventurers). The imperials are played by the role-players while the ogres are moved by the game master/dungeon master. Attack rolls are made by throwing a d10 and cross indexing the result on a table against the own attack strength which is the units base strength modified by terrain and leaders.
