SPECIAL SCENARIO RULES:
- WG108.1: SIDE SELECTION PROCEDURE: Each
player takes one marker of each nationality and simultaneously reveals their
choice of side. If opposing sides are selected, those sides are assigned.
If the same side is chosen, the players bid for side with the lower rated
(seed) player bidding first. Bids may start at '0' and progress in whole
numbers only. The bid is the number of dominate AT START squads to be added
to the opposing side. The bid continues until one player accepts the opposing
side whose force is augmented with that bid. Please report the bid, winning
side and comments (i.e. uneven die rolls at key moments) as this data will
be used for balance modification the scenario prior to its published form.
PLAYTEST STATUS: This scenario is currently
