Compiled by Tect.

Discussion and feedback: Completed scenarios.

Neither side has yet taken a strong position. Both forces will jockey for resources, defendable positions and points of strategic interest. The final positions of each force after the dust settles will decide the course of the battles to come.

take and hold

Attacker’s orders

Your scouts have come upon an enemy force that is beginning to establish a strong position. Take the ground from them before they can establish a foothold.

Defender’s orders

The enemy is upon you sooner than expected. Do not surrender the ground to them: this location is vital to continued operations in this region.

Preparing for battle

Before making the scouting roll, players take turns placing four Objective Points starting with the player with the highest Scouting Points total.

First, each player places an Objective Point on the centre line.

Then each player places an Objective Point on the line on their opponent’s side of the battlefield.

Winning the battle

Starting from the end of each player’s third turn they earn:

  • 1 Victory Point for controlling the Objective Point on their side of the table.

  • 2 Victory Points for controlling the Objective Point in the centre of the table.

  • 3 Victory Points for controlling the Objective Point on their opponent’s side of the table.

  • Each player also earns an additional 1 Victory Point if their general has joined a unit that controls an Objective Point.
