Orcs have invaded the Eastfold, rampaging across the land and capturing King Thengel’s prized warhorses.

Setup: Add Stolen Steeds to the staging area. Set Thruk, the Mount objectives, and the 8 enemies from the Orc-host encounter set aside, out of play. Shuffle the encounter deck. The first player reveals Flinthoof and Brightmane and adds them to the staging area. Then, each other player discards cards from the encounter deck until a location or enemy is discarded and adds it to the staging area.

If you can recover Flinthoof and Brightmane, you may be able to stop the main Orc-host before they reach Aldburg.

This stage cannot be defeated unless the players control 2 Mount objectives.
