Counter Insertion…….

 

Well it Tuesday and so we did another scenario…

Anyways Me and Britt used the Emperor's Children(Force B) (4.0) and Trent used the Knights(Force A)…

Armies

Players choose armies to an agreed point’s total, with 3000 points per side recommended for play. In this mission neither side is allowed to take Fortifications, teleporting, planetfall formation/units.

The Battlefield

This battle is played down the length of a 6 ft x 4 ft table. Set up the terrain on the battlefield in a mutually agreed manner.

Deployment

Before deployment both sides roll a dice and the highest score, can choose to be Force A or Force B.The Force A player nominates a short table edge to be the edge of his deployment zone. The battlefield is then divided as shown on the deployment map. Then 3 Objective markers are placed in the Breakthrough Zone, making sure that they follow the stand spacing, The Force B player deploys his army in the Force B deployment zone, and then the Force A deploys his army in the Force A deployment zone.

First turn

The Force A player get the first turn. Then from 2 turn on, roll to see who goes first…

Game Length

Game last 4 turns

Victory Conditions

At the end of the game the player with the most Victory points has won. If both players have the same number of Victory point’s the game is a draw.

Main Objectives

Capture those objectives: Force A gets 2 Points for each objective marker it holds are the end of the game…

Retribution and Odium (Force A and Force B): At the end of the game each player receives 1 Victory point for each enemy formation that has been completely destroyed. Formations that, are broken at the end of the game and units that are not on the board at the end of the game count as having been destroyed.

Splinter the Line (Force A): The Force A player earns 1 victory point for every formation in the breakthrough zone, at the end of the game.

Cage of iron (Force B): The Force B earn 1 Victory point for every Force A formation that is in No Man's Land, or in the Force A deployment zone, at the end of the game.

    • Summary

    That was a fun game, it looked at one point the Knights were not going to be doing much, after seeing some of the dice rolling in Turn one, but to his credit, he stuck at it and mange to get some points on the board…

    Over all the scenario, flowed fine and I would like to to see it with maybe some air transports, thrown into the mix, in the next game.

    Regards

    Greg
