"Night patrols" Secrets of the Third Reich AAR
« on: July 27, 2011, 04:56:29 PM »
A game I played yesterday to woth my buddy Calle, we both tried out our platoon builds for the Swedish SoTR tournament and gave one of the new scenarios for this year which I wrote earlier during the summer a try.

The scenario itself goes like this:

"The brass had the brilliant idea of sending your patrol around the enemy encampment to deliver a stab in the back. Unfortunately the enemy high command had the same idea and both platoons bump into each other in the middle of the night. Not much you can do about it now, kill as many of theirs as you can but try to keep your casualties on acceptable levels should you win and need to proceed with the original plans.

Special scenario effects: Small hours. During turn 1-3 night fighting rules apply. From turn 4 and onwards dawn breaks and regular LoS restrictions apply.

Deployment:
Roll D6. On 1-3 players deploy 24” deep on the short sides of the table. On 4-6 players deploy 12” deep on the long side of the table.

Mission and victory conditions:
As this battle was not planned for it is very much a confused shootout. Try to inflict as many casualties as possible and keep yourself alive!

1VP for killing enemy force commander
1VP for surviving with your own force commander 1VP for preventing enemy non support units to end the game in your deployment zone
2VP for keeping your platoon above 50%
3VP for reducing the enemy to below 25%
2VP for destroying all enemy non vehicle support options OR vehicles (pick one category at the start of the game). In the event of the enemy platoon having neither then the killing of the enemy platoon commander and surviving with your own is increased by 1VP each.

Limitations: Units arriving by air were ahead of the ground forces and had to turn around in order to join the fight. As such no troops may arrive by air during turn 1.

TIME LIMIT 3h/6 turns"
