Mission Geist

For the purposes of this scenario, only Hackers, Doctors, Engineers, Forward Observers, Paramedics, and Troopers possessing the Chain of Command or the Specialist Operative Special Skill are considered Specialist Troops.

Hackers, Doctors, and Engineers cannot make use of Repeaters or Peripheral (Servant) Models to perform tasks reserved for Specialist Troops.

A Zone of Operations (ZO) is Dominated by a player if they have more Victory Points than the adversary inside the area.

Only Troopers represented by Models or Markers (Camouflaged, Shasvastii-Embryo...) count, as well as Proxies and Peripheral Troops. Troops in a Null State do not count.

Tokens representing weapons or equipment (Mines, Deployable Repeaters), fake Holoechoes, and any Token that does not represent a Trooper do not count.

A Trooper is inside a ZO when more than half the Trooper's base is inside that ZO.

Troopers possessing the Shasvastii Special Skill that are inside a Zone of Operations count while they are in the Shasvastii-Embryo State or any non-Null State.

Troopers possessing the Baggage piece of Equipment that are inside a Zone of Operations and in a non-Null State provide an additional 20 Victory Points for Dominating the ZO.

In this scenario, the Secure HVT or Secure Treasure rule is not applied.

This scenario has a limited time frame, so it will automatically finish at the end of the third Game Round.

If one of the players starts their Active Turn in a Retreat! situation, the game will end at the end of that Turn.

Players can include a Sāchā in their Army List. Each player deploys one Treasure Token (25mm) at the beginning of their Deployment Phase, at least 4" outside any DZs, not on/inside scenery.

Secure Treasure: At end of game, can replace one Classified Objective with Secure Treasure. Accomplished when a non-Null Trooper is inside the enemy Treasure's ZoC while your own Treasure's ZoC is free of enemy Troopers (not counting Null). Provides the same OP as a normal Classified. A Sāchā can Secure Treasure even if own Treasure is contested. Cannot replace a card already used as an INTELCOM Card.

Open Treasure (Sāchā Only): Short Skill, no Roll. Roll on Treasure Chart. One use per Sāchā per Treasure Token. Re-roll duplicates. Token stays on table.

Short Movement Skill — Optional, Scenario. Only Models (not Markers). Must reach Silhouette contact with Civilian. Civilian cannot be in contact with enemy or have CivEvac Token.

Cannot CivEvac if: already CivEvacing 2 Civilians, has Impetuous/Frenzy, has Peripheral, Troop Type REM/VH, in Coordinated Order or Fireteam.

WIP+3 Roll. Can retry. Civilian stays in Silhouette contact with carrier. Max 2 Civilians per Trooper. Civilian must always stay on table.

Cancelled if: carrier enters Isolated/Null/Immobilized State, joins Fireteam, enters Marker State, gains Impetuous. Can be cancelled voluntarily (no Roll). Hostile Civilians: no +3 MOD.

At end of game, can replace one Classified with Secure HVT. Accomplished when a non-Null Trooper is inside the enemy HVT's ZoC, while your own HVT's ZoC is free of enemy Troopers (not counting Null). Same OP as a normal Classified. Cannot replace a card used as INTELCOM Card.

A player can only replace one Classified Objective with either Secure Treasure or Secure HVT (not both).

Short Movement Skill — Optional. Carry allied Troopers in Stunned, Immobilized, or Unconscious State. Carrier PH must be ≥ target PH (Baggage ignores).

Both move as one with carrier's MOV. Carried Trooper can't act, doesn't block LoF. Cancelled if carrier declares non-movement Skills, is activated in Impetuous Phase, or enters Null/Marker State. Also cancelled if carried Trooper recovers.
