The Feudals total one Veteran and five Experienced Soldiers: cost 179 and a Push Pool of 12.
The Grun total one Veteran and five Grizzled Warriors: cost 197 and a Push Pool of 7. The extra 18 points cost gaives the Feudals +4 to their Push, for a pool of 16.
Although Feudal soldiers are usually allied with the alien man-apes, the Grun, bloody "misunderstandings" do occur. This scenario involves a Feudal patrol on a routine mission to check on the surrounding countryside and keep on eye out for signs of any creature activity. As they round a curve in the roadway, they spot a pair of Grun look-outs in the road ahead and see another pair moving around behind the house on their left. As they continue forward, two more Grun emerge from inside the house wiping their combat choppas on what appears to be blood-stained clothing.
"Heads up, guys. Fix bayonets and be ready" Rocky, the squad leader rumbled.
The Grun facing the Feudals and the two who just emerged from the house exchanged quick words in their guttural tongue. Then the one who must have been their leader barked a single command. Rocky recognized that command; it was an order to attack.
The two warriors behind the house heard their leader's command and turned toward the Feudal patrol and starting running toward the wall in front of their position. The four in front of the house spread out into a firing line bringing their heavy rifles into ready position.
"Front line, into those trees, "Rocky barked at the men around him, "You three behind, unload on those apes when we'll out of the way."
Shots rand out from both sides as men and Grun ducked down and opened fire. The initial exchange saw each side score one casualty on the other.
The following description is due to a request for some card play explanation; this only details the actual cards played by the individual figures but not their full draw or buff hands.
