Dracula's America-Panic in the Streets


I have a lot of reports to catch upon!

About 10 days ago myself and Luis met up at his place to have the next turn in our Dracula's America campaign.  As you know from previous reports, Luis was up 3 to 1 in games and ahead by 4 infamy points. So I was going into our fifth game facing behind significantly. 
We have been playing the Forbidden Powers campaign, and we now are suffering the effects of the author, P Sheridan Thomas's unlocking the Necronomicon. He starts to read and suddenly a deafening sound is heard and a strange vortex opens and expels Eldritch terrors in the middle of Streetwater! 

The scenario expels a Eldritch monster in the middle of the terrain for each turn. Around this vortex are the citizens of Sweetwater, trying to escape death. Both posses have been tasked with escorting the Streetwaterians to Safety. Points are gained for this as well as for the destruction of the Eldritch Entity and the opposing posse.

As usual I took very few photos as the game was quite intense. 
Another great terrain
A very nasty Eldritch Entity in the Vortex.

We played 7 turns as it initially appeared that the Cult had out-played the Nephilim but subsequently it was discovered that half of the Cultist posse was missing which required a Bottle Check, this was a one dice test as the Leader of the Cult had been taken off the board and they failed handing the game to the Nephilim.

The post-game process was initiated and as usual the dice favoured the Cultists but the Nephilim were finally able to recruit a Veteran to join Astaroth. This will even up thing for our sixth game which hopefully will take place within 2-3 weeks.
