Mission 1 Map
The map is for a 6’x4’ table and shows the layout of the terrain for the battle. Don’t worry about reproducing it exactly – near enough is good enough. The important thing is that the woods and hills break up line of sight and that the objectives are placed towards the centre of the table.
If you’re playing with a larger or smaller table add or remove some terrain.
Woods: The woods are Broken Ground (half speed) and provide light cover (+1D).
Hedges: Hedges cost a Fixed Move to cross and provide light cover (+1D).
Hills: The hills are Broken Ground (half speed).
