Scenario Firestorm Take 2

Well it Tuesday again and so we manage Firestorm again…

Forces were Legio Gryphonicus (NetEA v3.24 *APPROVED*) and Gargant Bigmob (3.1 - Developmental)

The Armies:

Players choose armies to an agreed point’s total, with 3000 points per side recommended for play.

The Battlefield:

This battle is played on a 6 ft. x 4 ft. table divided into three sections as shown in the diagram below. Set up the terrain on the battlefield in a mutually agreed manner. Once the terrain is done. Than both players will roll a D6 and player who rolls the highest will place D3+2 VP markers in No Mans Land on the board. No VP marker can be closer than 30 cm’s to another VP marker.

Deployment:

The army with the highest strategy rating deploys first and is call Force A and deploys its entire force in area marked on the map. Then Force B will deploy all his forces in the area marked on the map…

First Turn:

Roll a D6 and add strategy rating to see who goes first.

Game Length:

This mission lasts for four turns.

Victory Conditions

At the end of the game each side gains 2 Victory points for each VP objective they hold. Also break their sprit counts for this scenario.

MISSION SPECIAL RULES

Raging Inferno: At the start of each turn and before the strategy roll, both players will roll a D6 and player who rolls the highest will place a Firestorm marker on the table. A Firestorm marker is the Orbital Bombardment template that has a diameter of 12cm and is topped by a suitable representation of fire. The marker scatters randomly 3D6 cm once it has been placed. The marker can’t be place any closer than 20 cm’s near an enemy formation. Any models within 15cm of the marker suffer a hit on 5+ and can make normal saves. Firestorm markers remain in play and will cause hits against models within 15cm at the start of each turn.

Burning World: Furthermore, if a Firestorm marker ends up on or in a piece of terrain, then that terrain burst into flames and becomes Dangerous terrain, if it were not also already. In addition the terrain piece now blocks line of sight entirely for any model.

Summary

Well that was a short game, the Gargant Bigmob won all its engagements…although it was help by some poor armour saves from the ATML player…It was quite interesting to see the number of dice been rolled in FF&CC…So we got another game and I will do the report for that one too..

Any ways the change to who gets to place objective markers and the firestorm marker, seam to work well. Although placement of the objective may need looking at…

Regards

Greg
