New module

[ThePrimeMover]

I was thinking that due to the 'time slip' in our game to Korea (and Vietnam can't be too far away - and then maybe the Gulf war? Who will play the axis of evil? Hmmm,...maybe not) that I would slip back to Neolithic times.

Homo Sapiens vs Neandathals.

No dinosaurs - they died out millions of years previous. Besides, they couldn't be trained.

SW are limited to clubs and stone throwing as ranged weapons - limited ammo in most cases.

Human rage and run away are 2 possible HOBs

EC could be massive storms, tornadoes (both sides have to roll a snakes to stay on the board - for each unit)

ELR - to cannibal

Fire produced in Rally Phase on a snakes.

Obviously these are the very early stages but I will need plenty of play testers.

The rule book will have around 3 pages (including the front and back cover replete with all the relevant tables. The first module should be out soon including mapboards of pure forests with the odd lake and -7 depressions and + 14 hills.

I think the rule book should just have pictures, like cave drawings.

Well that would be very thematic

DR at the start of every turn for Giant Meteor

Good one! That would be great as an EC roll. Snakes - roll 1d6:

1 meteor - roll again for size. Then color die direction like FFE HARRASS (basically the scenario ends - both sides wiped out if a subsequent dr 6)

2 ash cloud - roll for each unit (wound dr)

3 flood - all units that cannot reach a woods hex in one turn are removed from play

4 - 6 storm - min move only - no missile attacks, no fire

BAN Beast Activation Number

any activation of the BAN by either side results in a random attack by some hungry beast. 1 eat unit - random selection

2 wound unit - random selection
