The Mayhem Warrior Heroes rule set is great for solo gaming. The chain reaction forces the characters to react in unpredictable ways which allow for opportunities for story telling.
Thorin assembled a small party to search for the lost Battlehammer of his famed clan. In an earlier encounter in the Silver Hills, Thorin's party was ambushed by the Red Orc clan. His good friend was brutally slain and the party routed.
A month later, Thorin has assembled a new party to hunt down the Savage orc who killed his good friend. They trailed the savage orc with the help of the hunter Jon and attacked in a small clearing.
The hail of arrows only sparked anger in the huge orc who charged the elven archer. She was the first to fall to his mighty axe. Thorin and Uzun tried to take the orc down but Thorin routed under heavy orcish arrows. As they fled back into the woods, the orcs charged and slowly took them down among the trees.
Mayhem Warrior Heroes review:
* The rules are not very clear about alot of points. It definitely needs to be organized and edited better.
* The whole reputation idea with passes is confusing. However, once you get the hang of it it does flow.
* The chain reaction system is nice and definitely great for solo gaming.
* I'm not too excited by the combat resolution. I had quite a few passes where both combatants made their passes and no result happened.
