“The village must eat; the village must move…
A young Nord stalker ventures out on a lone hunt and stumbles upon a Einherjar.
The Einherjar awakens and sees dark purple lightning storms to the north…Rag ’Narok!

A Dark Emisarry poisons the ears of the Jotnar.
“Rise, shake off the shackles! The Nords are oppressing you!”

The Nord march north to find the Einherjar, the giants venture south to claim the land.
They meet in a deadly clash.
The March of the Giants has begun….”

At GameConCanada on a Saturday night eight generals gathered to defend a Nord village from eight giants, one Seidr, two Ice, two Sea, and three Mountain. The giants marched upon the city wrecking 4 houses in short order.

Not be out done, the defenders arose on mass. Charging across the village the challenge was met. The giants breaking across the defenders like a wave upon the rocks.

After three hours, dozens of rolls, 5000+ points of miniatures on the board, the defenders claimed a victory saving four houses and bringing the giants to heel. So much enthusiasm, fun and cheers made running this event a special night for all.

But the storms continue to the North. Who was behind the Giants uprising?

Find out next year, (years?), with the continuation of the story at GameConCanada Narrative Event #2 – Scourge of the Ice Wurms

A big thank you is extended to the eight generals, five of whom were playing their first Conquest game, who took a chance on this crazy rogue Vanguard and his little idea.
