MONSTERS AND MERCENARIES

If both players agree, they may use the Random Encounter Table below. Obviously this is limited by your personal collection, and should be edited and amended if players do not have the appropriate number of miniatures. As these rules are "fun" if any players does not wish to use them, does not wish to use a particular NPC or wants to limit the number of times this happens per game, that is entirely up to them. 

  • Random Encounters should be generated whenever somebody rolls a natural "1" for Initiative.
  • The model/models generated are placed immediately. Roll a Scatter Dice and place them in contact with the board edge indicated on the arrow. If a "Hit" is rolled, they may be placed in the centre of the board and then scattered 2D6 using the Scatter Dice to work out their final arrival point - this can represent flying or burrowing creatures, or perhaps creatures crawling from vents and tunnels. 
  • Once their position is finalised, each player completes their first Activation and then the "Monsters" activate, like a third player. The NPCs will always move to attack the nearest visible target, with their Actions decided by dice roll, the Arbitrator or a neutral third party (Move and Shoot, Charge etc.)
  • Rules for each NPC will be provided.
