The Long Night

December 2020·pp. 124–125

THE SHORT VERSION

Several gangs endure a sector-wide power failure that brings darkness, freezing conditions and prowling monsters. Keeping fighters alive until the artificial dawn matters more than a conventional objective, while random threats and optional Arbitrator-controlled horrors can make each movement through the abandoned sector a difficult survival choice.

The Collapse of Argovon: Crusade Mission

An Incursion attacker must destroy deforestation devices before they strip away the woods sheltering a forest defence. The devices progressively remove dense cover, making the battlefield change as turns pass; performing the destruction action becomes both a scoring opportunity and a way to preserve the army’s ability to survive.
