Encounter Scenario
ENCOUNTER is a Blood & Plunder Scenario featured in the Core Rulebook. Two opposing forces unexpectedly encounter each other while patrolling. Both sides wish to inflict as much damage to the enemy as possible.
There are 3 versions of the scenario:
- LAND: Both forces deploy in opposite quadrants of the board and smash into each other in mass combat.
- AMPHIBIOUS: The board is split with 25-75% land with the rest being navigable sea. The Defender chooses one corner of land to defend from an incoming assault of ships and boats from the Attacker.
- SEA: Both players engage in a naval brawl attempting to inflict as many Strike Points on each other as possible until one retreats or concedes.
