Scenario - Exalted Above All others

This is an idea I had for a multi-player free-for-all.  We seldom play multiplayer games at my LGS, so I thought this would be a quick and easy way to entice regular players into the cut-throat world of four-player madness.

This scenario was designed for four players, each equidistant from the middle of the board.  Fighting has been going on for some time in this theatre, and troops are weary and in need of medical attention.  Emergency supplies have been called in, but they've landed in no man's land and haven't exactly been configured properly...

SETUP

Place a marker in the exact middle of the board, equidistant from each player's deployment zone.  This marker does not block LoF, but the medical supplies are heavy and large enough that the market cannot be moved through normally.

SCORING

Picking up the medical supplies takes a Short Skill.  Any Doctor or Paramedic can pick up the supplies using a Short Movement Skill instead.  Models cannot and will not drop the supplies, as they are too valuable.

The first player to pick up the medical supplies gains 4 VP.
Any player that picks up the medical supplies after the first time gains 3 VP instead of 4.  This is repeatable.
Any player that kills a model holding the medical supplies gains 2 VP.  You cannot kill your own model, even if special rules allow, to gain this VP.  This is repeatable.

The reasons I left CKP - taken down from that blog by Endalyon

For those who may be interested, here is a repost of the reasons why I left Crits Kill People.  Endalyon took down my original farewell post and locked me out of the CKP account. --- Hey, this is Penemue.  I'm the fellow that brought you such articles as a rundown on the  Bane band , a criticism of the alleged  "uselessness"  of certain weapons, and a laundry list of  roles that players misunderstand  when they play Infinity.  I've been part of Crits Kill People since the start, when Tevesh suggested we start a blog that would become an authority on Batman and rival all the other blogs on Infinity. The dream was to release daily content to build our cache with readers, and I'd like to think we've succeeded pretty well with that. It's sad, then, for me to announce that I'm leaving CKP. There are a number of reasons I can't continue to work with this blog, but I promised Tevesh that I would keep this short and sweet. ...

The Molotok

Image
Property of Corvus Belli.  From Campaign: Paradiso . With Paradiso's arrival, Ariadna has finally received a weapon that might start replacing our beloved HMG.  The Molotok (meaning hammer in a bajilion Eastern European languages) is Ariadna's version of the Spitfire, and I have to admit that despite my initial excitement at hearing about a new weapon...I was a bit underwhelmed when I first saw it. I mean, one of the main draws of the Spitfire is that it is at +3 from 0-24", covering that blind spot that the HMG sometimes gets into (especially on units that start or blitz up the board).  The Molotok doesn't have that blind spot covered.  In fact, it's just like an HMG but with a shorter/smaller +3 range, and nothing to make up for it. Nothing except the cost, that is.  HMGs are expensive buggers, and Molotoks seem cheap like nobody's business.  As Corvus Belli has requested players not to reveal the formula they use to design units, I won't be too ...

The Sophotect Challenge - 1

Image
I was out with a number of local Infinity players at the LGS today when the topic of the Sophotect came up.  "She's so good!" was the general consensus, but none of the Aleph players seemed to run her.  How could they know how good she was if she's never even hit the table?  Then the ugly truth came out: "[We don't run her because] the Sophotect is actually better in the ISS..."  Huh.
