Fighting at the Ruby Ford

The Inn of the Kneeling Man was crowded, but the mood was subdued. The torrential rain had dampened the spirits of the fighting men on both sides. Those gathered at the back table guzzled their ales and barked for seconds.


"You 'ear what 'appened at the Ruby Ford?" a knight from House Mooton remarked. "Roose Bolton on one end, the Mountain 'imself on the other. Bugger me. You'd be safer drowning in the river."



The Story


"Once Roose reaches the Trident, torrential rains make fording impossible and the northmen are forced to use small boats to cross. Roose has ferried two-thirds of his force across by the time Ser Gregor Clegane arrives."



Gameplay & Strategy


This battle slipped past me when I was originally creating all the Stark/Lannister scenarios and I thought it would be a good time to add it now with House Bolton being released. I kept Roose's side as House Stark since this was just before the Red Wedding and much of his force were non-Bolton units (having ferried them across the river first), but as with all my custom scenarios it is encouraged to make any changes you'd like, such as having a primarily Bolton force and using the Bolton Tactics deck.


This is a fan-made scenario inspired by CMON Limited’s A Song of Ice & Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game and is in no way associated with CMON.
