wolf pass

Set Up

Determine Player 1 using the universal scenario rules.  The corners of the board to the players left form the rocky mountain sides of the pass, as shown above, and are classed as impassable for all units.  Designate these regions using the provided triangles.  Then proceed by setting up the terrain using the universal method (Saga Book of Battles p8).

Deployment

Each player deploys their units entirely within L+L of the corner to their right.  Starting with Player 1, players alternate deploying all of their Levies, followed by all of their Warriors, and finally all of their remaining units.

Beginning the game

Player 1 starts the game, but must play their first turn with 3 Saga dice, the 5 other Saga dice being removed from the game for this first turn.  Player 2 must play their first turn with 5 Saga dice, the 3 other Saga dice being removed from the game for this first turn.

End of the Game

After each player has played 5 turns roll a die.  On a 4+ each player has a final turn otherwise the game ends.

To determine victory, each player calculates their warbands conquest points.  Any unit ending the game wholly or partly within their opponents deployment zone counts as having an additional 3 models.  This becomes their total number of VPs.  If a player scores 3 or more VPs more than their opponent, they are the winner otherwise it is a draw.
