Hole in Wall

or No One Ever Shows Up On Time Scenario

by Andrew Apter
Y186


This is a Scenario for players who are not always punctual when showing up to game. It is a simulator exercise for Command and General Staff College (getting Sr. Officers in class on time is often a political problem).

This scenario is just for fun all comments welcome. It is intended to be unbalanced and random. Any commercial use of this is prohibited. Anyone trying to give me money for this should seek professional help. Andrew Apter


A base Station Commander is faced with a unique problem. One day after an Ion storm the drifting of mater in space have left a hole in a, here to for impenetrable Dark Nebula. On the other side of the hole is a unknown and hostile base Station. Both sides call for help.. It arrives peace meal (as the rest of the players show up.) The Scenario starts balanced and see-saws back and forth.

This scenario is for two to many players it requires 5 maps and a deck of ordinary playing cards. Five maps are laid A to D as shone below.

Terrain Hex rows 0101 to 0130, 0201-0230, 4101-4130, 4201-4230. Have the combined affects of a nebula and a dust cloud any ship leaving the map on the left or right is considered destroyed. On Map 3: hex 1210, 3510, 3421 and 1523 and all hexes in a 2 hex radius are asteroids hexes.

Starting Forces

Galactic Forces
Hydan Base Station , 2 fighter pods, 1 PFT pod.
Klingon D7A, Fed CL+, Romulan SPA, Jindarian FFT, Thol PC+, Orion OFT
Start: Map 5, 2216. WS 0 all ships docked to station to ride out storm.

Invaders
Seltorian Base Station, 2 PFT pod , 1 cargo pod.
Qari T90, Frax CC, Seltorian FF, Andro COB, Jindarian FFT, Orion OFT
Start: Map 1, 2214. WS 0 all ships docked to station to ride out storm.

Storm ends Imp 1 of turn 1

Reinforcements

When the third player arrives he draws a card. That player then runs the ships that match that card on the below table as reinforcements for the Galactic player. When the forth player arrives he draws a card. That player then runs the ships that match that card on the below table as reinforcements for the Invader player. This continues till all the players arrive or turn 8 whatever comes first. After turn 8 the late-late player will draw his card and receive a CA of the same race as the unit shown on the table. For a Smaller battle use CA reinforcment from the start. Reinforcement enter the Map on Imp 1 of the next turn. Reinforcement weapon status is the same as the freandly Base at the time.

Attachments and Detachments -- Each players force is a fleet players on the same side may exchange any ship or ship with another player as long as they keep below the command ratings of the fleets flag ship. Attachment and detachments can only be done during the energy allocation phase. Attachments and Detachments can only be performed by flag ships on the same map.

Flag Ship -- In each Fleet the ship with the highest command rating is the flag ship. Flag ships can not be Attached or Detached.

Recall -- If a player has to leave his flag ship has been recalled. It and all ships attached to it must leave in the same manner as an Orion mercenary. Note the card originally selected and the ship in the fleet if that card is drawn again that is the fleet that comes back. This rule uses the players own domestic politics to simulate the strange politics of any such mass alliance. Note: The bases fleet can not withdraw so if the base commander leaves some will have to swap fleets. this is the only time fleet swapping is allowed.

PF and Fighters are the standard normaly assisied to ships after Y185.

Options all ships recive 10% of the econmic value for options and or cargo. Any ship with cargo boxes will recive an additional 1 bvp per cargo box. All ships with 10 or more cargo boxes get an additional 1 bvp per cargo box., ships with mine racks get 9 bvp per rack toward the purchase of mines. Ships with option mounts recive an additonal 6% of economic value.

Tholian and Selatorian units use Milky Way Varrients.
