Point Blank Minis

Point Blank Minis

A Star Wars Miniatures Scenario

By Sterling Hershey

ate in the Clone Wars, the Republic dislodges the Separatists from bases and holdings in the Core. Damaged but not defeated, the Separatist forces withdraw and regroup in fortified regions in the Outer Rim, pursued by determined Republic fleets. Along the way, the Separatists attempt to divert the Republic forces and require them to spend time and resources engaging lesser targets.

One of these targets is a Separatist base on the planet Garia, within Brak Sector and not far off the Corellian Run. An active Separatist base so near the busy hyperspace lane could disrupt Republic fleets, their supply lines, and vulnerable civilian vessels. In one of many such actions, clone units detach from the fleet and attack the base directly.

In the midst of the battle, a clone AT-TE walker leads the assault on the base’s droid control and command center. A direct hit from a volley of missiles disables the armored beast at the fortified entrance. Immobile, but still armed, the AT-TE faces down the droids at point blank range. A Jedi Knight leads clone troopers into the fray, using the walker for cover. However, the droids have a surprise of their own -- agile commando droids are en route to deal with the heavily armed clones. Will the clones smash their way through the clankers, or will the droids stop the assault in its tracks?

This scenario uses miniatures from Clone Wars, Galaxy at War, Clone Wars Map Pack: The Attack on Teth, and other sets. It uses the Teth Courtyard map from Clone Wars Map Pack: The Attack on Teth.

Republic Setup

The Republic squad has a total cost of 148 points. The Republic player may create his own 150-point squad instead, but only units with the Order 66 ability may be used, except that one Republic unit with a lightsaber may also be included. No more than one Unique character is allowed. Large-size or larger units are not allowed. Although the Republic squad point cost is lower than that of the Separatists, the Republic also has use of the damaged AT-TE.

The Republic forces set up as follows:
Area A (Pilot): AT-TE Driver
Area B (Gunner): Clone Trooper Pilot
Area C: Anakin Skywalker, Jedi; Clone Trooper Sergeant; 3 Clone Trooper
Area D: Elite Clone Trooper Commander, Clone Trooper with Repeating Blaster, 2 Clone Trooper with Night Vision

Separatist Setup

The Separatist squads have a total cost of 225 points. The Separatist player may create her own 225-point squad instead. One large-sized Separatist faction droid character may be used; all others must be medium-sized units. Huge and larger units are not allowed. No more than one Unique character is allowed.

The Separatists set up as follows and as indicated on the scenario map. If other units are substituted in the squad, use units of the same or similar cost and number as those indicated in each area listed below.

Special Scenario Rules

AT-TE: The AT-TE shown on the map is heavily damaged and immobile. However, some of its weapons remain operational. The following rules apply to the AT-TE:

• The AT-TE begins play with Defense 13 and 100 HP remaining. This applies to attacks directed at either the pilot or the gunner while in their starting areas, but not the entire AT-TE. Once the 100 HP are exhausted, the pilot and gunner may be targeted directly, using their own Defense score +4 for cover, hit points, and any special abilities related to defenses.
• Once a pilot or gunner has been defeated, its weapon is inoperable and may not be used again during the battle.
• Characters giving bonuses (via abilities or commander effects) to the pilot and gunner must be within range of the character they are aiding, not within range of the AT-TE in general.
• Special Abilities (such as Missiles) that apply to characters adjacent to the target character must target the pilot or gunner, rather than the entire AT-TE. Characters adjacent to the pilot or gunner still take damage as normal.
• The pilot and gunner are considered to be using Mounted Weapons when in their starting areas.
• The pilot has Attack +10 and Damage 30 when attacking from area A. Use area A to determine line of sight and cover when attacking. The pilot may target only characters ahead of the AT-TE in the target zone indicated on the scenario map.
• The gunner has Attack +10 and Damage 40 when attacking from area B. Use area B to determine line of sight and cover when attacking. The columns to either side of the vehicle restrict the turret’s firing arc, so the gunner may target only characters ahead of the AT-TE in the target zone indicated on the scenario map.

Separatist Reinforcements: During the battle, Separatist reinforcements drop in from structures above the map. Between rounds 2 and 3, the Separatist player must place all of her reinforcements in one of the four reinforcement areas on the map. If one or more of the reinforcement squares in an area are occupied by characters of either side, the reinforcement unit may be placed in the nearest clear square. After placement, play resumes normally with initiative for the next round.

Got Force? No Problem!

By Jack Irons and Michael Fryda

Welcome to the Star Wars Miniatures Strategy Showcase (S3). One of the best ways to become a better player in a strategy game is to practice and analyze different game situations. In each installment of this series, we'll offer a situation for you to analyze. What overall strategy or specific tactics should each side employ to achieve victory?

Dynamic Duo is a fan-created format for Star Wars Miniatures. Players may use normal faction building rules with exactly two characters whose point totals add up to exactly 100 points. Players activate only one character per phase. Luke Skywalker and Yoda with Chewbacca, Rebel Hero has been a dominant squad, but there are always contenders at tournaments vying for the title of best duo. In this puzzle, we examine the challenges that Warmaster Tsavong Lah and Aurra Sing bring to the table.

Squad 1

All characters are at full Hit Points unless noted otherwise.

Warmaster Tsavong Lah
Aurra Sing: 2 FP

This squad has scored 0 Gambit points.

Squad 2

All characters are at full Hit Points unless noted otherwise.

Luke Skywalker and Yoda: 9 FP
Chewbacca, Rebel Hero

This squad has scored 0 Gambit points.

Strategy Tips

If it helps you to solve the puzzle, you can set up the figures on the Tractor Beam Reactor Coupling Map available in the Rebel Storm Starter Set or recent league kits. However, the blank side of a map and replacement figures work just as well. Setting up the figures might help you to make decisions about how they should move.

Which squad should make the first move? Warmaster Tsavong Lah is unaffected by Luke Skywalker and Yoda's Force Powers. Luke and his Master are vulnerable to melee attacks, and small amounts of damage can add up quickly. Chewbacca, Rebel Hero has no special abilities to protect against enemy attacks, but his Bodyguard special ability can help Luke Skywalker and Yoda survive longer. How would you pull off a victory with each squad?

Gambit rules are used in this puzzle. The gambit point is beneath the square nearest to Warmaster Tsavong Lah.

Knocking on Closed Doors

By Jack Irons and Michael Fryda

Welcome to the Star Wars Miniatures Strategy Showcase (S3). One of the best ways to become a better player in a strategy game is to practice and analyze different game situations. In each installment of this series, we'll offer a situation for you to analyze. What overall strategy or specific tactics should each side employ to achieve victory?

Lucien Draay has brought a company of Wookiees with him to capture Zayne and force him to stand trial. Lucien underestimated Zayne once again and has found that capturing him will not be so easy. Zayne and his friends are vastly outnumbered, but they have one thing on their side: computer control of the doors of the building!

Override is one of the most powerful Special Abilities in the Star Wars Miniatures Game, and most squads include some way of dealing with it. But what should you do when you don't have a counter for Override?

Squad 1

All characters are at full Hit Points unless noted otherwise.

Zayne Carrick: 2 FP
Jarael: 2 FP
Atton Rand: 1 FP
T3-M4
T1 Series Bulk Loader Droid
Genoharadan Assassin
Czerka Scientist
Mynock

Squad 2

All characters are at full Hit Points unless noted otherwise.

Master Lucien Draay: 2 FP
Old Republic Captain
Wookiee Trooper (7)
Snivvian Fringer

Strategy Tips

If it helps you to solve the puzzle, you can set up the figures on the Throne Room map, available from Ultimate Missions: Revenge of the Sith or the 2007 Starter Pack. However, the blank side of a map and replacement figures work just as well. Setting up the figures might help you to make decisions about how they should move.

The door in front of Zayne is locked shut by Override. With no means of opening it, where does Master Lucien Draay's squad position its figures to get at Zayne and his squad? How should Zayne's forces set up to defend against the enemy squad? The coordinate letters and numbers can be used to help you describe the precise squares where you would put the figures.

Gambit rules are not used in this puzzle. A squad wins by defeating all enemy figures.

Mandalorian Fury

New figures released in the Knights of the Old Republic set brought some powerful commander effects to the Mandalorian and New Republic factions. In this puzzle, we look at the effect of an increase in firepower to Mandalorians and added defenses to New Republic followers.

Squad 1

All characters are at full Hit Points unless noted otherwise.

General Wedge Antilles
Mara Jade Skywalker: 4 FP
Kyle Katarn, Jedi Battlemaster: 3 FP

This squad has scored 10 Gambit points.

Squad 2

All characters are at full Hit Points unless noted otherwise.

Canderous Ordo: 90 HP

Mandalorian Captain
Mandalorian Marauder
Mandalorian Scout (2)

This squad has scored 0 Gambit points.

Strategy Tips

If it helps you to solve the puzzle, you can set up the figures on the Echo Base Outpost map from the Battle of Hoth Scenario Pack. However, the blank side of a map and replacement figures work just as well. Setting up the figures might help you to make decisions about how they should move.

General Wedge Antilles' squad just won initiative and is facing a lot of firepower. What should their strategy be this round to gain an advantage? Who should be the priority target for the Mandalorians?

Gambit rules are used in this puzzle. The Gambit point of the map is to the left of the photo. The Mandalorian Marauder is the only Mandalorian figure that can reach Gambit this round. If you are unfamiliar with Gambit rules, refer to the updated Star Wars MiniaturesDCI Floor Rules (July 2008), available as a Word file or a PDF file.

Star Wars Miniatures Strategy Showcase 4

Gungan Defense

With the release of the Knights of the Old Republic set, the Star Wars Miniatures Game continues a tradition of bringing exciting new groups of characters to life. One of the most interesting additions has been the inclusion of strong Gungan support miniatures, with Jar Jar Binks and Captain Tarpals providing unique boosts that the game has not seen before.

Squad 1

All characters are at full Hit Points unless noted otherwise.

Yoda: 80 HP, 3 FP
Mas Amedda
Jar Jar Binks (defeated)*
Captain Tarpals
Gungan Artillerist (2)
Gungan Shieldbearer
Gungan Soldier

* Jar Jar Binks has been defeated by this point in the game. He's been included here so that you can think about how the game started and what might have happened previously.

Squad 2

All characters are at full Hit Points unless noted otherwise.

Darth Vader, Scourge of the Jedi: 50 HP, 1 FP
Vader's Apprentice, Unleashed: 50 HP, 4 FP
Emperor Palpatine: 0 FP
Gran Raider
Ugnaught Demolitionist

Strategy Tips

If it helps you to solve the puzzle, you can set up the figures on the Commander's Office map from the Attack on Endor Scenario Pack. However, the blank side of a map and replacement figures work just as well. Setting up the figures might help you to make decisions about how they should move.

Yoda's squad just won initiative. Yoda is likely to be defeated this round. Before he is eliminated, what general strategy and specific tactics should he use to achieve victory down the road? Which of the two big enemies should he concentrate on damaging? What could the Imperial side do in response that might help them come out on top?
