Hi guys,
The main rulebook for BF Evo (available in March 2007) has, among other things, a complete campaign system - which we are currently availing ourselves of in the office.
Fordy has taken on the mantle of the USMC, Chris the PLA, Old Bear the MEA (predictably), which left me with the EFTF.
Turns one and two were played out last week, seeing all four sides grab territory. There was one brief scuffle between Old Bear and Fordy, which saw the MEA try to create an uprising in a town the USMC had formed close ties with - the rebels were soundly beaten back.
This week will be somewhat more interesting. Fordy took the initiative and struck for the Oil Fields, the central territory we are all aiming to grab. Old Bear, still smarting from last week's contest launched another attack at the same town, this time penetrating deep inside the residential areas before the USMC reacted - they will be fighting an Urban Rumble scenario tomorrow, so expect lots of street-to-street fire fights.
Chris was sneaky. Seeing a clear ath, he aimed straight for an Air Strip currently held by the USMC - if he wins this battle, he will have completely cut off Fordy's attack, undoing all his hard work and forcing him to retreat back to his forward base!
Me? Well, I could have claimed some entry territory or forced Old Bear on to the back foot. But ever one to enjoy an unfair advantage, I too went for the Oil Fields, forcing Fordy to face all three of us in this turn. Even if they win most of their battles, the USMC will be paying a heavy price for their forces being stretched so thin. . .
More updates from the front line as they come in.
