This is a Tunnels and Trolls adventure in the Castle Calahony series.

The minotaurs charge the remaining trolls, who withdraw with heavy losses. The remnants of the orcish hosts withdraw within their underground mountain strongholds.

You may try to retrieve the javelins you have thrown. [Make a L1-SR on luck to refind one unbroken]. Javelins used as protection of the square against the charge of the warg riding orcs are all broken and cannot be repaired.

You may plunder all orcs and trolls which are killed. Orcs and trolls which were wounded can not be plundered.

[Each soldier in your patrol receives skill points on his weapon for the sum of the prime attributes of the orcs and trolls killed and for those who are seriously wounded. Your soldiers receive the same number of adventure points. Soldiers sent to the assistance of another patrol receive 100 free skill points for their weapons and the same number of adventure points.

Finally, each soldier receives an extra 200 adventure points for surviving this battle.]

The Baron goes out to meet the minotaur chief. A tent is set up, and the minotaurs set up camp adjacent to the camp of the Baron's army. It turns out that the minotaurs have been attacked frequently by the orcs and trolls, who use them as live cattle.

The armies stay together for a few days. The minotaurs are mainly armed with huge spiked bludgeons, of which they carry one in each hand. Each of your soldiers may try to befriend a minotaur warrior or a minotaur wizard. Rogues and warrior wizards may choose.
