Border Patrol: Flanking Manoeuvres

THE SHORT VERSION

Each commander secretly sets aside part of a patrol to enter from a chosen flank after the battle has begun. The main forces deploy across a broad, shallow battlefield, then await reserves whose arrival becomes more likely as turns pass. Because arriving troops cannot immediately charge, the scenario rewards planning a supporting position rather than relying on an instant surprise assault. Victory points determine how well the two separated elements cooperate.
