FORCE RECONNAISSANCE
October 2884
Seeking the Mercenary front line command,
the 663rd Assault Reconnaissnce Troops approached
Chattering City. Though there was no indication that
Mercenary forces would be scarce, the decision was
made for this to be the debut of the NeuSpotter. Unlike
the sluggish Krte, it was stealthier, but couldnt stand up
in a fght.
A platoon of SAFS was the last thing they
expected to fnd.

Reconnaissance: When a NeuSpotter ends its movement
in the same hex as an Objective marker, starting on the next
turn it may attempt to escape the map. Each NeuSpotter
may do this for a single Objective. A unit that leaves the
map in this way is removed from the game.
PK41: Each PK41 (The fuselage of the Hornisse) carries
2 NeuPanzerfaust rounds. When a PKA (or Gustav) ends
its movement in the same hex as a PK41, it can reload, up
to 2 rounds. Place a numerical marker under the PK41 to
indicate how many rounds have been removed.
Strahl Troops: If two NeuSpotters using the
Reconnaissance rule escape the map after touching the two
non-dummy Objective markers, it is a Strahl victory.
Mercenary Soldiers: As long as a Strahl victory is
prevented, the Mercenaries are victorious.

RESCUE
The AFS of veteran pilot Fink had not
returned. Stopping to rest in a nearby town while
searching for him, his platoon found an enemy force
instead.
The AFS were no match for the forces,
including the new Gustav, so the fate of the 34th AFS
Platoon would depend on the arrival of allies.

Prepared for urban combat, and pre-loaded with a sophisticated
urban combat AI, the Jagdpanzer NutRockers of the Strahl Troops
are able to make defensive attacks out to 5 hexes, instead of the
usual 3 hexes.
Units can only exit the map from hexes 0112, 0113, and 0114.
Exiting from hexes 0112 and 0114 costs 1 movement point.
Exiting from hex 0113 costs movement point. Once off the map,
a unit cannot return.
After turn 10, calculate the score for each side as follows.
Both players: Tally the defensive rating (or dog-fght rating for
air units) of defeated enemy units to determine the points scored
(exclude any units that have escaped the map).
Strahl Troops: The sum of the defensive ratings of all Mercenary
Troops remaining on the map, including any damaged units (A or
M condition markers) is added to the score.
Mercenary Soldiers: For every AFS of the original squad that
escapes the map, add 2 points. However if the unit is damaged
(with an A or M condition marker), add only 1 point. Units other
than the AFS that escape are not counted toward the score.
After combining the appropriate totals above, if the Mercenary
player has at least 15 points more than the Strahl player, it is a
Mercenary victory, otherwise the Strahl player wins.

This would be the frst campaign for the
Kuritan Corps.
But there had been an information leak, and

ASSAULT CROSSING
Late 2885
An opportunity to launch a counterattack had
developed. The Mercenary Soldiers, accompanied by
powerful air support, started a moonlight river crossing.
With PKA and NutRocker in short supply
on the Strahl front, there was a greater reliance on the
Sphinx and its anti-tank rockets to guard the river. The
Doll House would be assigned to counter-fre.
After a ferce exchange, the Mercenary troops
managed to build a bridgehead across the river. The
bridges had been made at great expense-of lives and
equipment.

Turn 1: Skip the air combat phase, and the Strahl players phase,
start with the Mercenary players phase. Mercenary units may
move twice on the frst turn, but may not engage in close quarters
combat.
River: The road on map 2 is regarded as a river. Where paths
cross the river (hexes 0807, 1607, and 2007) are bridges.
Spotters are not needed for the Sphinx to fre indirectly as far as
the river hexes. If a hover unit becomes immobilized while over
the river, it is eliminated.
Retreat: The Strahl player can retreat units off the north edge of
map 4. The Strahl player loses half of the victory point value for
units that retreat. Moving off the map costs 1 movement point.
Both Players: Total the defense rating of defeated enemy units
(dog-fght rating for air units). Exclude enemy units that have
retreated. Any enemy units with A or M markers on the map count
for half their value (drop fractions). If at the end of the game there
are no intact Mercenary Soldiers north of the river, it is a Strahl
victory. Otherwide if the point difference between the two players
is 5 or less, it is a draw. If the difference is 6 or more, it is a victory

23 September 2885
SAFS, Doll House, and other allied units
gathered secretly. Recruits and veterans alike would
participate in the secret maneuvers known as Operation
Super Hammer. They managed a level of secrecy so
strict that detecting the activity with NeuSpotters would
not have been possible. Anything short of an eye in the

The Mercenary martial command was in
total disarray, with every attempt at a counteroffensive
being anticipated and cut off by the Strahl army. With
nothing but defeat after defeat being reported, it became
impossible for commanders to cope with the situation
and order anything other than to withdraw.
The Super Hammer operation was over
before it had even begun, the name being remembered
for the rout and retreat of the Mercenaries, and not the

New Ordinance
In 2883 a weapon was introduced which
overturned all previous notions of combat and began
a new era in ground warfare. The Armored Fighting
Suit started as a reengineering of labor suits, used in
construction. When it was fnished it was found in the
front lines, changing the course of the warfare, and the
weapon of choice for guerilla warfare.
No one could have predicted the attack on
the Landing Ship Division by 14 suits, and those who
knew about the attack couldnt predict the devastating
outcome of the surprise attack. The impact of this new
AFS weapon in the hands of trained pilots assured that
it would spread, along with this new war, across all of

spread, through a newspaper article of only 10 lines,
it had the damaging effect exceeding 10,000 lines.
In Super Henburke (old Cornwall), the 100th Mechanized Infantry Division was
surrounded, and tried to divide into several forces and break through the encircling
net. It was the duty of Lieutenant Colonel Brinkman to break through where the
fortifcations were thinnest and escape with the military support unit stationed in
the city.

AIRPORT RAID
August 2885, Japan
While the Mercenaries were usually warry
of attack from Strahl Troops, the urban location
of the airport made that possibility seem less likely.
Unfortunately, the airports cargo and shuttle
maintenance facility made it a primary target for the
unmanned Strahl paratroopers.

A Mercenarys primary concern was meeting the quota of defeated enemies defned by their
contract. Success could lead to higher pay or vacation time when it came time for contract renewalin
addition to a distinguished service record.
This sometimes led to priority being given to confrmed kills over sound tactics, particularly with a
force composed of several competing teams

The AFS is a high speed fghting unit, capable of
quickly breaking through enemy lines and holding territory, were
the words of 2nd Lieutenant Skinner Doratti, who participated in
the frst battle to use AFS, in June 2883. With its increased usage
over two years, the battlefeld came to be populated with many
professional engineers and mechanics to maintain the machines,
but victory still came down to the do-or-die spirit of the front line
soldier, as he would say.

The heart of Second Lieutenant Conan
was heavy with the loss of so many subordinates
to the unmanned weapons of the Strahl. Bazooka
armed NeuSpotters and the slug-like F-boot were
becoming more common among the Strahl desert
forces; cheaper to station there than a manned unit.
After seeing so many friends fall victim to them, he

With this scenario a special concealment rule is used.
The Strahl troop player does not place concealed units on
the map; their hex location should be recorded and the
tokens set aside. Strahl units that are concealed remain
concealed until they move or attack, hiding under the sand.
The infantry squad is the exception and can be found by
the Mercenary Troop player by using a J40(S). Every turn,
during the troop phase J40(S)s assigned to ground support
can be placed on a hex on the map board. If the infantry
unit is within that hex, or the 6 adjacent hexes, the Strahl
Troop player should announce so, and the unit is revealed.
On map board 6, hex number 2205 and the six surrounding
hexes are Hill 91. If the Mercenary troops have 4 units on
the hill at the end of the game, they are victorious. The
Strahl force is victorious if this is prevented.

SKIRMISH
(A PROLOGUE TO FASEREI)
14 March 2886, Eastern Europe
The renewed balance of power in local and orbital space was a sign
of a weakening Strahl presence. By the beginning of February 2886, there were
nine satellites over the northern hemisphere, restoring planetary communications
for the Mercenary Army, including Africa and Northern Europe. Just six months
after the defeat of Operation Super Hammer, it was once again possible to
coordinate large forces and put the strength of the Mercenary Army to full use.

Mercenary reinforcements: Before play begins, the
Mercenary player selects which map side the turn 6
reinforcements arrive. Write down the selection and reveal
the selection when they arrive.
Scoring block hexes: In this scenario, block hexes score
points for the side that controls that block. Each block is
worth a number of points equal to the number of hexes that
are a part of the block. At the end of the game, for each
uncontested block a side controls, it gains O.G.P. equal to
the point value of the block.
The player to acquire at least 20 more O.G.P. points than
their opponent is the victor. In all other cases, the game
ends in a draw.

After the holocaust
30 April 2886, Southern Ukraine
FASEREI was a success within the
frst seven minutes. All initial target points were
occupied, and a panic spread through the Strahl
army that lasted for a week. The front moved three
hundred kilometers, allied damage was negligible,
and victory parties celebrated the achievement all
across the Earth. However, the Strahl main force
managed to escape destruction. F. Rashutendolf, now
senior general of the Strahl European forces, sent
fresh troops as reinforcement before the forces were
completely overrun.
