MARS ATTACKS – OPAL HARBOR
A Dystopian Wars Ambush Scenario
Background:
Babylon Base was established so the two great Alliances could meet to negotiate in neutral waters. A solemn oath by the Prussian High Command, and the guarantees of the Antarctican Science Council have ensured the base is protected as neutral ground.
Six great fleets, and Ambassadors and Heads of State from many nations have arrived for midwinter peace talks, counting on the cold weather to ensure cooler heads prevail.
What was not counted upon was agents of the Red Planet knowing of the meeting, and sending their own delegation. A sword of Damocles has descended, intent on decapitating Earth’s leadership.
• Limit 6 Player Spots – Players should bring up to 1000pts of Dystopian Wars models from a single faction. 2 Players may team up for a single slot, each only bringing 500 if they wish.
• At least 50% of a fleet’s forces must be Naval or Diving, with the exception that ONE Dreadnought Robot may be used as the mandatory Large-Plus model. Normal fleet composition rules otherwise apply.
• Player Fleets are deployed docked in island or Babylon Base ports along one long edge, all within 12” of that table edge. All models will be facing their Fore Arc into the dock.
• All player models, even 360 movement models, must spend the first turn with a Low Speed Maneuver Marker backing out of dock. Once they are “clear” they may remove the Low Speed marker.
• No SAS tokens may start launched, nor launch on the first turn.
• Terrain will include icebergs, islands, and at least one water-fortification representing Babylon Base. A random player will control the Base on the first round, and control will pass counter-clockwise.
• The Martians will deploy 3000pts within 12” of the opposite long edge.
• Martians will have the first turn.
• The game ends after 7 turns maximum.
• Prizes will be given for:
o Highest Combined Total of slain Martian MFV plus remaining own MFV
o Best Painted
o Best Sportsmanship
• If the Martians destroy all Earth models, no prizes will be awarded.
