Interfering with Laddy J (GO with LJ and BJ with Molly)

GO with Laddy J and BJ with Mollly

Molly and Laddy J would be Interfering with each other in a charming oriental garden.

The no good dirty Guild fascists took along The Judge, Francisco, an exorcist, two death marshalls, the Brutal Effigy and were planning on covertly breaking through and to put their undercover entourage (Laddy J her/himself) into all the wrong places.

Representing the zombie community were; Mortimer and Toshiro, Sybelle and Sebastian and finally Chiaki who whistled her way into position. Their plan was a display of force and covert break through.

What the exocist saw - a set of behinds. He tapped Laddy J's!

The scheme pool had forced both players to go elite. On one side was shiny gun metal, menacing blades and the mean stares of those who had looked death in the face and not blinked. GO was not messing around and brought men and women who were well-equipped to deal with zombies. On the other side BJ had a bloke with a spade, a girl with a flute, a disembowelled stinky corpse, a short ginger man picking his nose who smelt worse than a corpse and a zombie dressed in unforgivingly light negligee. In fairness this side had also looked death in the face, and some of the Ressers certainly were not blinking. Mmmm. BJ didn't say anything, but he was worried. Too late now. Time to let the cards choose a winner.

Things started with some moving and manourvering and a little comboing. GO flung Laddy J into a box and ran him/her up field expecting Molly to off the Marshall and release LJ. But BJ was busy navel gazing. Literally at Mortimer’s and Toshiro’s navels. He had the spleen ripper (Mortimer) and spleen dripper (Toshiro) rip out body parts from said navels, and with the parts summon two Ashigaru, which Chiaki removed slow from and healed. The spearmen then moved into position and braced at the front of the zombie line (Charge now LJ and Judge if you like). BJ also managed to summon in two punk zombies and the Nercortic machine over turns 1-3.

GO and the guild weren't amused and over the next two turns the Exocists and Death Marshalls did their job, flinging undead into boxes and dealing death to the Undead horrors by mashing them into pieces. Bits of innocent zambies and skellingtons filled the air. But Molly’s Henchmen and Henchwoman were undeterred and they had seen worse and showed their stuff (BJ scored 1^st VP with show of Force). Despite the losses its not as if BJ and Molly could think of anything better to have done with the stones. Then Lady J, the Judge and Franceso started hitting and shooting things that had cost real stones. From now on there was a chance that somebody would get hurt.

Somebody did and it was Sebastion who was killed, after rushing forward to make sure a Marshall with Sybelle in a box got poisoned nearly properly – nearly properly being to within one wound of death. Then somebody killed the Judge. (BJ nearly got away with the three inch black blood upgrade again). More zombies needlessly perished and at some point Franceso got hit with a Katana a few times too many. Toshiro then got killed and Lady J took down Yan Lo’s plucky little piper. (I think of the green clarinet). Mortimer got moody and the sound of ringing metal filled the air as he gave LJ the flat end of his spade a couple of times. BJ got more points for show of force. Molly’s and Justice’s interfering scored for them but BJ and the ressers were somehow getting ahead. Could they keep the lead? Surely the ABZ champion was better than this?

He was. He was about to net 5 VP in one turn! The exorcist, who until now had been keeping his head down, spamming schemes for breakthrough, finished and snuck up behind Lady J, who was engaged in combat. The Exorcist then shot LJ in the rear. Look where you're aiming! He claimed he had been aiming at a drowned, and no damage was done, but even Molly, familar with Rotten Belles, looked disgusted by the creepiness of it all.

Sybelle had spent some time in the box, but after being released and administering the lash to the terrified Marshall, began interfering for a table quarter. On the other side of the table The Brutal effigy was spamming schemes, and spammed more when molly summoned a Punk zombie to finish him off. The effigy dropped like so much sack cloth and iron, but finished the job and in doing so tied up Break Through in style. That was Darn Good scheming GO!

But now it was turn 5, it was late and interfering would have to stop. S&M and Kommander Frei had finished; the sound of squeeling and hails of gunfire had stopped some time ago. BJ and GO had to stop interfering with each other too.

In addition to a masterfully planned  covert breaktrhough GO scored with Laddy J and undercover entourage, although he/she was on her last wound and in a bit of a state. Molly would have to settle for the points she and Sybelle had slowly accrued through their interfering, and their now KO’d colleagues’ shows of force. He'd never quite got round to the scheme thing.

The Governors Orifice had put out a crew to kill undead, and BJ had taken a crew to play the schemes. In the end Molly had done the killing, or at least the wounding with summoned punks and LJ had largely done the better scheming with trained killers. How had this reversal of plans turned out?.

VP’s equalled and sixes to all – a draw. The cards chose no winner today, unless we were all winners? Yeah we can all be winners!!

A battered Lady J, an exorcists and the Marshall with a Zombie in a box stalked off looking very sinister and very mean. They had better things to do. I personally wouldn’t want to be the 'hind-tapping exorcist, or be near the Marshall when they finally find the punk zombie they'd left in the box. Still it was his now. A punk zombie is for life and not just for Christmas!

Sybelle was busy with her boots and a downed-Death Marshall (apparently the boots needed cleaning and the Marshall said he had been bad). This left Molly (and a couple of zombies) to wonder what she would do with all the bits that had been left behind. It would be a nightmare sorting them all out. How could there be an odd number of hands? Nobody appreciated resurrectionists and their hard work; it was like perpetually being left to pair up socks.

Good Game GO, good game and good scheming.
