Rumble in the jungle

My son, Martian Banshee, his grandson and myself had a brutal game of Savage Showdown today. The two boys playing the beasts inhabiting La Florida, and the Martian and myself playing the explorers. The system is very smooth.


Conquistadors cut through the thick foliage, Through the mist and brush there are ruins of an unknown settlement ahead.
Tag-a-longs support the soldiers, hoping to stumble upon valuables. though the captain of the Conquistadors  is not fond of the stout, bearded man playing  his bag pipes, the men welcome the music.
The wails and screams of the undead become audible as the they are stirred into a frenzy by the small mans pipes, and the dense wood explodes into movement.
Ferocious beast men accompany the ghouls and spirits that haunt this settlement, and smash through the brush, mad with hunger.
The rag tag group of explorers are caught off guard and mauled by a massive creature, in an instant a man is torn limb from limb.
Hearing the screams, musketeers rush to the aid of the farmers and hunters that fancied themselves fighters.
From a small hut charges a huge brute, in the melee a conquistador is beaten to a pulp. His compadres fearlessly fight the abomination, wounding the massive creature before it finishes them off.
The game ended in a blood bath with the remaining explorers surrounded. none survived.
