WELCOME
Welcome this part of the site is for listing story-based missions. What we officially have today is limited, and there is a lot of good ideas out there to share. PM me on Discord with testing results or additions.
01
Prototype
Stage: Testing
Submitter: Paul
In this mission player 1 must steal advanced prototype plans
Player 2 is in total control of the placement of the station which must be dead centre in the gaming area. An objective token is placed to denote the plans.
Next payer 2 is permitted to place all asteroid and wreckage obstacles but none must be closer than range 3 of the station.
Player 2 now takes 4 mine objective tokens or mine models. This work differently than standard mines as they are "Mine Fields" These also must be placed;
-
Not within range 3 of the station.
-
Not within range 2 of the player's start zones.
-
Not within range 1 of other obstacles.
-
Not within range 3 of other Mine Fields.
​
Player 1's ships gain a faction token each up to its command value. Each token represents a boarding team.
Player 2 places 2 faction tokens on the station as a local defense force.
Player 1s squadrons gain a faction token if they are able to accommodate a boarding team. This should be agreed upon between both players at the fleet build stage.
​
Player 2 objective, thwart player 1 from stealing your plans. Player 1 objective steal the plans and escape [hyperspace with them].
​
RULES.
Boarding action.
A ship or squadron with a faction token can place that on the target if it starts its turn at distance 1 of the station.
​
Any competing tokens on the station at the start of the squadron phase will face off at 3 blue dice each. 1 standard hit will result in the loss of a faction token. Loss of faction tokens only occurs after both players have rolled.
​
Prototypes plans [Objective token]
Once the station no longer has any local defense force and the player has a boarding team on the station. It can transfer the token to any ship in range. That ship must hyper jump or leave the game map to win. Its fleet points by getting away are not counted towards.
If a ship is destroyed the plans stay at the location where it last was. Any squadron or ship can pick them up.
​
Mine Fields.
At the start of the placement round.
Each Mine Field must be declared as to its type [Can not be destroyed, recommend A,B or C left with token]:
