Wolf Pack A Full Thrust Scenario

A while back everyone was having a good time trashing Space Above and Beyond.
Well I won't start that again, but someone made a coment about the show being
nothing but a remake of the old WWII submarine movies. Well this got me to
thinking, 'cause I liked those old movies. Well I came up with a scenario to
fill that role. For those of you who don't like "A" beams on escorts you won't
like this. I play tested this with my local group and we all thought this was
a great night of fun. some suggestions were to remove all shield and weapons
from the transports, or some such method of making them weaker. have fun

Wolf Pack A Full Thrust Scenario By Robert Kerrigan

This scenario is a direct copy of a WWII submarine movie. Four "Submarines"
are waiting along the path of a convoy. The ships used are listed below.

QTY TYPE COMBAT POINT Defender: 1 Heavy Cruiser 4 1 Escort Cruiser 3 4 Muscle
Destroyer 2 3 Bulk Tankers 1 7 Freighters.5

Attacker: 4 Shadow Strike Boat 4

Defender: The defender is divided into two groups, the first is the merchant
ships, the second will be the war ships. The Merchant's top speed is eight
(8). They may plot a zigzag pattern or whatever. During combat, they are
considered as one unit. The war ships are separate units and have no
limitations on speed or movement. During combat each ship is considered as one
unit. The convoy must enter the southern end of the board by turn one (1). The
merchants must exit the northern edge of the board by turn 11.

Attacker: The attacking force may setup on the first 48" (north to south) of
the board. The wolf pack may begin the game cloaked. However, all wolf
pack ships must have de-cloaked by turn four.

Combat: Initiative will be determined by random card drawing. Enough cards
will be inserted for the wolf pack to equal the convoy's deck (seven cards
each fleet).  During combat the wolf pack's ships will not de-cloak
until a card for that ship is drawn. Only one card will be used to determine
all ten of the merchants initiative.

Victory Conditions: Who ever has more combat points at the end of the game.
However, if the wolf pack earns more points, yet looses all of its own, it
will be considered a marginal victory.
