Our British and Prussian players arrived from Richmond to play a game of Dystopian Legions with the objective of controlling the door to an uncovered underground vault in the desert. But the Prussian team arrived with one of their rolling ironclads (otherwise known as a "tiny tank").
We're all still learning the rules for playing Legions, but this game was interesting to see unfold. That Prussian "tiny tank" inflicted significant casualties against the British infantry, and then the Prussian armored steam knights marched up and siezed control of the hatch to the vault.
The Covenant player at the next table mobilizing some bombards to provide some artillery support, some of which hit their allied British troops.
But the Japanese fleet smashed the Covenant forces and took control of the coast, providing an escape route for the Prussian Legions team to take the artifact they found in the desert vault back to a secret lab.
And the allied Russian fleet which was guarding an approach to the Strait of Gibraltar? An FSA fleet arrived demanding passage, and when the Russians refused a shooting confrontation broke out--the FSA helped to secure passage for the Prussian and Japanese fleets out to the Atlantic, although intelligence reports still don't inform exactly why this rogue fleet fired upon ships of the Grand Alliance or if this indicates any change of political aims for the FSA.
The awesome tropical islands seemed to have been relocated into the Med by strange effect of the powerful artifact uncovered in the North African desert....
