Here is a scenerio that I want to try. It's kind a variant on rescue.

Background: An Imperial spy ship, transporting a VERY important data
cylinder/computer core, has had severe mechanical difficulties or been
attacked. Either way, the main computer core has been jettisoned and
crash landed on planet Middle-Of-Nowhere 357.

The Armies involved: are any IG/Sm vs. anyone else.

Reason: Both sides want the info in the computer.

Restrictions:
a) The computer MUST NOT BE destroyed. The player that destroys the
computer loses. The computer core is fragile and has no save.
b) T-Hawks are not allowed to land within 30cm of the computer
(computer may be damaged by T-Hawk generated turbulance.
c) Titans must remain at least 30cm away from the computer core (too
much ground vibration)

Victory conditions: An infantry stand must remain next to (i.e
touching) the computer for two full turns (to download the information),
then exit via its representative table edge.

Setup: Normal, but with the computer core in the exact center of the
board.

A varient on this may be to have a (as in only one on the board) special
Technical Specialist stand (an infantry stand with a rhino). The
TechSpec is free but has pitiful stats (it is a computer geek after
all). If the TechSpec is destroyed, a new one is immediately available
but must arrive from the players table edge and work its way back to the
computer core.

The army point value is rather immaterial, but both sides have the same
number of points.

Give it a try and tell me how it turns out.
