Flavour of the Month

“In Rome a meal can be as important as a title. That said, if you can get a discount, then all the better.”
Thus it is our Dominus wishes to impress his would-be colleagues in the Senate with a most lavish meal, and it falls to his gang to acquire
an appropriate delicacy for his cooks.

SCENARIO REQUIREMENTS SCENARIO RULES

• Sufficient buildings/structures/obstacles
to block the left hand side of the table
as shown
• Six mobs
• One Incola: the Butcher
A 3x3’ table is recommended for this scenario. One table edge
should be lined with as many buildings as necessary to make that
table edge inaccessible. The remaining space can also be populated
with a selection of market stalls and carts. The remaining sides of
the table should be left open.
Player A has a gang of Fighters in service of the would-be host, the
total cost of which should not exceed 120 coin, including Denarii.
This gang deploys within 8 Gradus of the left hand side of the
table and amongst the stalls. One member of this gang must be in
base-to-base contact with a stall.
Player B’s gang receives protection money from the stallholders,
and wish to stop Player A’s thieving Fighters from leaving the
market with any stolen merchandise. This gang should not exceed
120 coin, including Denarii and should be deployed within
6 Gradus of the right hand side of the table.
Player A rolls a die before the first blind draw. The encounter
begins as the member of his gang in base-to-base contact with
a stall attempts to pilfer some groceries. Use a spare activation
pebble, base ID marker or other unique token placed by the light-
fingered gang member’s base to represent the stolen merchandise.
On a roll of IV or more, the delicacy is stolen from the stall without
attracting the attention of the stallholder. On a roll of III or less,
the stallholder spots the Fighter as he steals the food, and shouts
for help. If this happens, all mobs within 3 Gradus of Player A’s
fighters will automatically attack and cannot be blended into.
A model carrying stolen food cannot blend, but he or she can hand
that food to a friendly gang member if in base-to-base contact.
Any food carried by a retired Fighter will be dropped and remain
on the table at such a point that Fighter was retired. This food can
then be picked up by another Fighter.
Other Fighters may also collect delicacies and edibles if in base-to-
base contact with a stall. They can do so without being spotted by the
stallholder on a roll of IV or more. Any other roll indicates the stallholder
has spotted the Fighter stealing the food, and will cause the alarm to be
raised and attract any mobs within 3 Gradus as specified above.
Cruentus the Butcher will move about the table and act
independently as specified on his Incola card.

VICTORY CONDITIONS
Victory is awarded to Player A if one of his Fighters leaves the right hand side of the table with some food.
Player B is awarded victory if Player A’s Fighters are unable to leave the table with any stolen goods.
