Jungle Warfare

THE SHORT VERSION

Six jungle-event cards turn plants, predators and traps into active problems for a kill team. Brainleaf interferes with activation order, a Catachan Devil threatens unwary operatives, and hazards such as spikers, hanging creepers and ptera-squirrels punish different movements or attacks. Players can reveal hazards together or keep selections secret, and the article suggests combining them with earlier deception cards for a more treacherous operation.

Defence Nexus

This mission rewards an army for steadily establishing control of a defence nexus rather than simply rushing the centre at the last moment. Progressive scoring checks control of one, two and three objectives, while a substantial final award goes to the player with the greater combined Objective Control around the central point. An underdog command-point provision helps the weaker force stay involved.

Buried in Fog

An expedition into Ulgu searches six terrain sites for treasure hidden by supernatural fog. Repeated searches improve the chance of discovering riches, but the prize must then be carried safely: melee attackers can seize it and ranged deaths leave it on the ground. Uncertain arrivals and the need to protect a successful search party make the mission a contest of exploration and extraction.

The Glade of the Viridian King

The first campaign battle contests three sites in an overgrown glade. Its four-round duration and straightforward rewards for holding each site encourage immediate commitment, while the sacred-site effects introduced with the campaign can make apparently safe positions hazardous or unexpectedly valuable. The result establishes which army enters the next stage with the initiative.
