Title: Scenario III
Post by: agustaaquila on October 14, 2012, 03:38:34 PM

Choices Have Consequences

26 Nov, 3056

The GDL and Skye forces the past several months, slowly wearing each other down.  The Skye forces struck a major blow by capturing David McCull and his Highlander on the first day of the conflict.  This caused Alexander Caryle to become erratic, and also created room for his subordinates to second guess his decisions.  The GDL inevitably fell back to the Glenco Highlands, and proceeded to play a cat and mouse game of lance on lance fighting.

The Skye Rebels have decided to push the issue, and have take all their combat worthy forces and divide it into 2 combat groups, and attack the 2 entrances to the Highlands.  Those are Killiecrankie Pass, and the town of Inverurie.

Maps

There will be 2 maps.  One will be a fight in the mountainous terrain of Killecrankie Pass, and a city fight in Inverurie.

Forces

Players will be responsible for assigning forces to each battle.  Forces will be organized in lances by me, and players will assign an equal number of forces to each side.  I will post up the lances later, but I am posting minis up now so we can get a list of people bringing stuff.  I already have to sheets.

GDL

Marauder x2, Warhammer x2, Archer x2, Rifleman, Wolverine x2, Shadow Hawk x3, Blackjack, Spider, Victor, Centurion, Enforcer, Griffin, Goliath

Skye

Thunderbolt, Crusader x2, Griffin ,Rifleman, Dervish, Enforcer x2, Vindicator x2, Whitworth, Raven, Panther, Locust x2, Ostroc, Shadow Hawk, Griffin, Commando, Cataphract, Orion

Special Rules

Pre existing damage
All damage, ammo and pilot hits on the sheet are as marked. 

Logistics- While in cannon Kiliecrankie took place in the morning, and then the GDL  marched all day to fight at Inveriue, we will be running both battles simultaneously.  Al init will be on cards, and players can have mechs on both maps.  We will be playing speed battletech.

Victory Conditions
Each crippled (per TW definition) light mech left on the end of the board will be worth 1 point, increasing by 1 for each weight class.  Double that for destroying mechs.  Mechs withdrawn off the home edge do not count.

Any questions?

I will go through my minis and let you know what I have. Most of these, I should have. Will try and get to it tomorrow.

For the sake of sanity, lets just hand off mechs to differing players when they change mapboards.  It'll simply be *easier* that way.

Looks like a fun scenario. I'll be out of town, so I hope to catch the next one.

I have all of the GDL covered. Don't know what Rob might be bringing. I would need for the Skye, a Crusader (maybe), Griffin, Enforcer, Vindicator, Locust, and ShadowHawk.
I know that Rob has some of the mechs painted in GDL, so if he is bringing those I can fill in with what he is not bringing.
Will wait to see what he has to say.

I'm also sorry to miss it.  Looking forward to the next one though.

With a sweep of his...

Yes, unfortunately my minis kind of look like crap, are unpainted, or only have a base coat on them.

And shouldn't we be discussing minis for Scenario II?

I don't think we've actually played that yet.

I can get an unpainted enforcer and spider with no issues.

No, Scenario II was skipped.  So we are on to scenario III.

I will bring my vindi again.

I have Spiders, Shadowhawk and a Griffin.


Unfortunately, I will be late to the game.  My church choir (The Men of Faith) will be singing at a funeral Sat at 11:00 at Faith Community United Methodist Church.

(Rob, you know him.  Bob Hulse passed on Tuesday.)

Got em packed.  I woke up at 4am for no apparent reason, so I'm packed and will be there at 10am.  Anybody want to bring a deck of Magic cards to play while we're on break or waiting?  I'll have my crappy old-person decks with me for grins...
