If I designed a scenario, and worked out a point system, would anyone be interested in doing it to get the "high score".

I don't know the interest people have in trying out pre-built squad scenarios, so I figured I would ask.

I think that's a cool idea, does score imply single player?

The point system would probably vary from scenario to scenario.... But I was thinking like, capturing Point A is worth X. And not how many pieces you kill, but what you have left.

The scenarios would be thematic, so like Naboo troops vs droids on theed map, as an example.

But also scenarios like all Rogue One vs X

All Ghost Crew vs X

Vader and 501st vs X

Really just whatever scenario type would interest people the most

I think grabbing the holocron could be a fun excursion.


Heck, a longer excursion can be taken from KOTOR. flying to different worlds to find pieces of a map to take us to the Star Forge so we can destroy it.

Using Revan, Bastila, Carth, Juhani, Jolee, m3, Zaalbar, Canderous, Mission Vao, Hk-47, and T3-M4

Holocron extraction could definitely be an idea. Any one else like that idea so far?

Ok, so I have an idea for a first run, if anyone wants to do a test run that may be interested. You would play as pure Ghost Crew, and I would play as Imps proteting a Holoron that the Ghost Crew has to capture and take back to a ship.

I have a lot of the scenario books from the WOTC days. The hardest part of what you are planning to do is balancing the points for each side vs the scenarios rules/victory conditions (this is likely to require playtesting). This can be a lot of fun and a lot of inspiration can be taken from those sources.

This also sounds a lot like Imperial Assault (though one side plays a mix of characters instead of 1 or 2 heroes each). Inspiration for mechanics and other such things (triggers for reinforcements etc) can be taken from this source.

Im very curious as to what you come up with BigGrin

I already have some scenarios. I put two of them here on BM.
I also have scenario books from WOTC that have to be revised.
Anybody interested?

Jenari and I are coming up with it together. And I think tonight or tomorrow we may give it its first "test" run. Right now tho, we are looking at a Rescue Han in Carbonite scenario.


MAP Jabbas Palace

Rebel Characters
Leia, Bounty Hunter
Lando, Infiltrator
Chewy (TBD)
r2 (TBD)
3Po ( See-Threepio)
Luke (TBD) * Potential scenario created piece or Luke, Jedi Knight
Han in Carbonite ( Han that comes in TBD)


Hutt Cartell

Jabba (15 point Jabba)
Salacious
Bib Fortuna
Gamorreans
Weequay
more uniques/non uniques from the Hutt Cartell Subfaction


( we thought about throwing the Musicians in as by standers just for looks, lol)


Idea behind it

You start with 200 points. Every round it takes you to get to Han you lose 10/20 points. Non unique Kills give you 5/10 points. Each one of your character that survives the scenario will give you extra points (amount TBD)

Having Leia be the one to save Han +50 points
Possibility for more to come


Victory condition - get to Han, and lead him back to the Rebel Starting point



Special Rules

Leia gains aggressive negotiations for the scenario
Lando can not attack anyone until he frees Chewy. ( except the guard guarding Chewy)
3PO/R2 are not under your control until you touch them ( they begin adjacent to Jabba)
Possibility for more to come




This is the beginning stages of this. Once we get the details fleshed out I would love to run an open run on it, and see who can get the high score if anyone is interested!

ALSO! Any suggestions? We have set up already thought out, and I will update that tonight.

Ideas for Hutt Cartel squad
Ideas for a created Luke?
Ideas for more bonus points?
