At the be!innin! o& each round "ou must to determine ;ho !oes &irst. This is called

initiati)e. The rules areE

ach 'la"er rolls a dice

The 'la"er ;ho scores hi!hest can elect to !o &irst< or the" can make their

o''onent !o &irst

/nce initiatie has been determined< the 'la"er ;ho !oes &irst selects one o& their

leaders to !ie an order.


13/74

(i)ing an %rderThis is ;here the chain o& command in "our arm" becomes im'ortant. Bases are all

ca'able o& actin! inde'endentl"< but usuall" onl" &ollo; a de&ault set o& behaiours

based on their suppression le)el. Without e='licit orders< onl" elite units are ca'able

o& makin! sound tactical choices rather than ust blindl" &ollo;in! their instincts.

The &irst 'la"er selects a leader to !ie an orderE

Choose t+ree&riendl" bases to carr" out the order alon! ;ith the chosen

leader

o Sergeantscan onl" !ie orders to bases &rom their o;n squad

o Captainscan !ie orders to an" bases in 'la". The" are heroic and

ins'irational &i!ures ;ho are the !lue that ties to!ether di&&erent

s$uads. I& ca'tains lead the action< all bases inoled receie bonuses

DIA-RA %E Issue /rderJJ

DIA-RA *E oe to Di&&icult TerrainJJ

I& the" e=it the terrain a!ain< use the ne; terrain t"'e to calculate an"

remainin! moe

DIA-RA E Rier Crossin!JJ

In the example a transport with Move 8 moves 1'' onto a shallow river that is 3''

across. Because it moves at half rate on the river it counts the 3'' as 6'' for crossing it.

So far it has used '' of its Move 8. !hen it emerges on the opposite "an#$ it ma%

move one more inch


18/74

7ractions do matter and can make the di&&erence bet;een contactin! the

A base that be!ins its moe straddlin! a terrain t"'e that causes moement'enalties and normal !oin! is considered to be on the di&&icult terrain i& an"

At the Double

At the double orders thro; caution to the ;ind and moe bases as &ast as the" can !o.

DIA-RA ,*E Ran!ed su''ort countersJJ

In the example the irewolf Sergeant could support either the red or the %ellow fight

at range$ as the friendl% infantr% "ase does not "loc# )*S. It chooses to support the

%ellow fight. ( well placed counter+attac# li#e this one can swing the "alance in the

Retreat

A retreat order is carried out in almost e=actl" the same ;a" as an assault< e=ce't the

obect is to e=tract bases that are alread" in close combat< instead o& !ettin! &ree bases

into close combat.

You ma" not !ie this order to a base that is in contact on all sides ;ith otherbases @&riends or enemies

When the order is !ien< 'lace an attack counter o& a di&&erent colour ne=t to

each base "ou ;ish to retreat ;ith and a corres'ondin! counter ne=t to an

enem" base the" are in contact ;ith

o You ma" onl" 'lace one attack counter on an" !ien enem" base. I&

DIA-RA ,E Retreatin!JJ

In the example$ ,he -iridian pla%er attempts to retreat with the two (lpha ,eams in

close com"at. ,he% recieve ranged support from the (lpha ,eam and irewolf at the

7ire orders are !ien to attack the enem" at ran!e< and like close combat< some bases

directl" attack the enem" and others receiin! the order act in su''ort. Choose a

;ea'on ;ith ;hich to attack the enem" base and check the &ollo;in! rules to see i&
