Such fighting has left scars, and we've seen a few of them come up in the first part.Īnother character who had been around (in a couple of new items from the now-extinct Battlecorps website) is Baron Riordon Mallory.
While we saw only Stone's Hammer in End of the Road, in Vengeance Games, we see more of a man who has spent years fighting in some of the most intense fighting. Someone, who should have been a Knight, or even a Paladin, so what happened? Why did he walk away from that? Vengeance Games gives those answers. He has spent years fighting in the Jihad, earning the reputation for being the one Stone turn to to hold a position or to take one. He was the man nicknamed "Stone's Hammer," commander of Stone Lament's Third Battalion, and one of Stone's Immortals, those who were with Stone on Kittery from the start. His father was a soldier, and he grew up in a military family. Who is Gideon Wozniak? A former AFFS soldier, born and raised on Antietam. When my pitch for End of the Road was accepted, by using Gideon, it gave him some needed background. But Vengeance Games was written before End of the Road, mostly as a mental exercise, but with a hope to see it published. The main character, Gideon Wozniak, is the same one that appeared in my story End of the Road from the Legacy Anthology. There are no spoilers in this post about the story itself, but the background is a lot deeper. Shrapnel #6 has the first part of a novella of mine called Vengeance Games I thought I should write this post and give you same background on it.
