Scenario rules

Deployment

The two forces are placed equal distances away from the objective. The Ordinatus and Mega Garagent are not deployed at the start of the battle (see below). A small section of ruins are placed in the center of the battlefield.

The Orks and Imperials are seeking to capture an ancient STC component which has been discovered in the middle of the ruins. Both sides are seeking to capture it at any cost and are in the process of bringing the heavy support (an Ordinatus Mars and a Mega Garagent

Special rules

The Ordinatus is currently engaged in combat in a neaby battle and is unable to provide fire. It proforms the functions of a HQ section.

The Mega Garagent has suffered damage from its last encounter with the Nova Cannon, it is unable to move and still has not regained full use of main weapons. It therefore is reduced to watching the battle unfold and directing its troops.

The Mega Garagent and Ordinatus Mars may fire only once during the battle (after one side has captured the STC) , either at the opposing troops or the opposing mar machine. The Adeptus Mechanicus recover the STC component after the battle because the shoddy patchup job on the Mega Garagent causes it to catch fire and then retreat for more hasty repairs.

Author's notes

This scenario was designed as a way of having a big destructive battle with out having to use huge forces or large tank armies. You may have noticed after reading the rules three or four times that the main objective is to not have your war machine blown up. The STC is just a minor matter when it comes to massive fire fights between war machines (the imperials get it anyway).
