The King of All Goblins

Encounter 1

"He calls himself the King of All Goblins," says Baron
Greigory. "Please stop laughing, this is actually a serious
matter. This rotund rascal, Splig, has called all the
goblin tribes of northern Terrinoth and the Dunwarr
Mountains to pay homage and gather under his banner.
Alone, each tribe is simply a nuisance. United, they
could pose a genuine threat to Arhynn."
The old baron touches one leg absently and trails off, as
if in memory. After a moment he comes back to
himself. "Ahem, well, the simplest way to solve a
problem like this is to intercept the goblin chieftains
and jolly well eliminate them. Then press on to the -
hem - 'Goblin Throne,' which I understand is just a
rock in a cave, and tear it down before Splig completes
his crowning ritual."
With his words still ringing in your ears, you press on
towards the "Goblin Throne" and prepare to intercept
the goblin chieftains on the banks of a nameless river
descending from the Carthmounts. You wonder why
the old man seemed so concerned. They are only
goblins, right?
Monsters
Barghests. Flesh moulders. Goblin archers.
Setup
Heroes place their figures on the Ford in the unique
spaces marked with an "X."
Chief Wyrd is the chieftain of the flesh moulders.
When Chief Wyrd is placed, read the following aloud:
It is possible that the creatures that caper into sight
were goblins once, but their flesh has been twisted
beyond all recognition. The tallest creature seems like it
might have once been two goblins, now blended
together by fel magics.
ESCAPING THE AMBUSH
Each goblin chieftain may move off the map through an
Exit. When a goblin chieftain moves off the map
through either Exit, remove the objective token from
its corresponding Monster card and place it in the
overlord's play area. If a goblin chieftain is defeated,
remove the objective token from its corresponding
Monster card and place it in the heroes' play area.
Reinforcements
At the start of each overlord turn, he may place 1
monster from each monster group whose chieftain is
currently on the map. These monsters may be placed
on either the Camp Site or the Ruins, respecting group
limits.
At the end of each overlord turn, if the number of
chieftains on the map is less than 2, the overlord may
place 1 monster group that has not yet been placed
during this quest. This monster group may be placed on
either the Camp Site or the Ruins.

Place 1 monster group on either the Camp Site or the Victory

Ruins. The other monster groups are not placed during
setup.
Place 1 green objective token faceup on the goblin
archer Monster card. Place 1 blue objective token
faceup on the barghest Monster card. Place 1 white
objective token faceup on the flesh moulder Monster
card.
Place search tokens based on the number of heroes.
If all objective tokens have been removed from their
corresponding Monster cards and there are at least 2
objective tokens in the heroes' play area, read the
following aloud:
Well, that wasn’t so bad. Above you on the mountain
slope, you can see a trickle of goblins creeping into a
sinister cave. That must be where Splig lurks.
The heroes win this encounter!

Special Rules
THE GOBLIN CHIEFTAINS
Each master monster in this encounter is a goblin
chieftain and corresponds to an objective token.
Chief Zag is the chieftain of the goblin archers. When
Chief Zag is placed, read the following aloud:
A goblin with a strange red cap leaps from the trees,
shrieking in his primitive language. Soon, more of his
tribe follow. They dash forward fearlessly!
Chief Zig is the chieftain of the barghests. When Chief
Zig is placed, read the following aloud:
Heralded by an eerie howl, a pack of barghests
approaches. With mounting terror, you realize that the
grim dogs are serving as mounts for a tribe of goblins,
led by a chieftain with a wicked-looking spear.
If all objective tokens have been removed from their
corresponding Monster cards and there are at least 2
objective tokens in the overlord's play area, read the
following aloud:
Above you on the mountain slope, you can see the
mouth of a sinister cave. In ones and twos, led by their
chieftains, goblins pour into the cavern. It’s possible
that Baron Greigory had a point.
The overlord wins this encounter!
Note which objective tokens are in the overlord's play
area. These are important for Encounter 2 (see "The
United Goblin Tribes").

The first time Splig is defeated, read the following
aloud:
“You dare lay a hand on Splig, the King of All

leaps high into the air and comes to rest atop the
supposed throne at the far end of the chamber. “You
will be punished for your insolence!”

“Sure,” says a third goblin. “And also it was too pointy
to sit on anyway. No proper throne.”
“I don’t see how it can be sacri-whatever to smash a

rock just yesterday.”
“No, listen to me!” bellows Splig. “Kill the intruders!
Am I not your king?”
“About that…”
As the argument continues, you scoop up some
discarded goblin loot and walk out. No one tries to stop
you. Problem…solved?
The heroes win!
