Swamp Slugfest

Ashy's picture

Location: Swamps of Lanta (Southeastern US).
Setting: About 4 AM on a sweltering summer morning in a swampy, overgrown junkyard filled with the rusting hulks of pre-Event vehicles. The goopy water is stained red with rust.
Forces: An Undead Infection (UI) horde vs. a loose alliance of swamp creatures (SWAMP).
UI: Wretch
SWAMP Leader: Snaighim

Battle UP: 
375

Setup: Undead hunt by night. While the sunlight does not seem to harm them, they prefer not to enter it - so once they finish their nightly hunts and begin returning to their putrid, dripping Hives, their bellies filled with warm flesh, the Undead are often at their most unaware. Jaka, the Snaighim, knows this well. As such, the serpent-like creature from Ai has chosen that specific time for its attack.

Jaka was pulled from Ai to Earth nearly a year ago, and the strange quadruped serpent-beast (a Snaighim) has since witnessed the sheer devastation that the Undead Infection has wrought. The swamp itself is slowly dying from the zombie plague; being a creature of the swamps on its native Ai, Jaka is not going to lie idly about and let such a thing happen. As such, the Snaighim has roused several creatures from the boggy marsh and they have reluctantly agreed to try an ambush against the Undead. Many of the creatures, being simple-minded wildlife or savage "Apoc" versions of normal animals, either cannot perceive the "bigger picture" of their home or simply do not care. As such, their allegiances to Jaka are tentative at best.

The horde of Undead (the Undead player may use 400 UP to build his force), "led" by a vicious trio of Wretches, are caught completely off guard by the SWAMP force’s attack (the SWAMP forces will get a "Surprise" round of attacks before the Undead can "return fire"). It will be a tough fight for the Undead, as the SWAMP forces are "dug in" to the rusting vehicles of the junkyard. However, the superior forces of the Undead Infection horde should work nicely in their favor!
