Daft question whats the explicit victory condition of the first scenario? I'm guessing it's call in the dropship and evacuate each house but it never quite says that.

"But me no buts! Our comrades get hurt. Our friends die. Falkenburg is a knight who swore an oath to serve the church and to defend the weak. He'd be the first to tell you to stop puling and start planning. Because what we are doing-at risk to ourselves-is what we have sworn to do. The West relies on us. It is a risk we take with pride. It is an oath we honour. Even when some soft southern burgher mutters about us, we know the reason he sleeps soft and comfortable, why his wife is able to complain about the price of cabbages as her most serious problem and why his children dare to throw dung and yell "Knot" when we pass. It's because we are what we are. For all our faults we stand for law and light.

The scenario ends when the dropship.leaves. Victory only occurs when you've saved everyone you can over the 90 day campaign.

It's quite a neat little.package. planning on giving it a shot when my gribblies from Zombiecide show up.

Cool! I donated. This would go great with Khurasan's 15mm scifi range. There's plenty of minis to use as Volunteers, they've got some civilians, and the Parasachnids works perfectly as the bugs! Oh, and the Cormorant dropship would look great on the table...

Llamahead, the objective of every scenario is to rescue as many survivors as you can - with the secondary objective of keeping your volunteers alive.

Thought so but making it explicit allows for more complex scenarios later on in the campaign obvious ones include holding a choke point for x turns, re activating a defence arsenal etc. Excellent stuff still by the way. Still hmming and hahhing what to use as bug models myself.
