Dalek Civil War

[Lytton]

Hello
If anybody has any scenarios or a campaign for a Dalek v Dalek War
I would very much like hear about them and how they played

I've had a few ideas this what I have so far

FORCES

Imperial (Grey and Black)

Emperor Dalek
Warrior Daleks
Engineer Daleks
Suicide Daleks
Dalek troopers
Robomen
Ogrons
Slyther


Renegade (White and Gold)

Davros
Warrior Daleks
Engineer Daleks
Special weapon Daleks

I split them like this because I wanted the two sides to play differently and Statements in the TV programme lead me to believe this is how they would be split with the exception of the suicide Daleks which were Davros's idea I see the Renegade Dalek fraction as the smaller of the two forces and their fore less likely
to sacrifice their numbers in this way hence the development of the Special weapon Dalek

RULES

Rules wise the only thing I was considering was a maximum squad size of 16 points with a rule that any unused points cannot be carried over to another squad
this way the Imperial player should usually have a point or two to pad his or her squads with a Dalek trooper or Roboman as cannon fodder or Human/Alien shield very Dalek tactics me thinks and a way to balance the advantage of the Special weapon Daleks

Thats what I have so far please let me know what you think and any ideas or thoughts you might have
Cheers

Sounds interesting - like the limitation on the points value for each squad - should result in some tactical choices on the make-up of your army - small but powerful groups of Daleks or larger mobs of cannon fodder! Can certainly imagine a few Daleks herding crowds of their "allies" into battle while the main Dalek force head for the important objectives.

Any thoughts on scenarios and settings? First thing that sprang to mind was an arms race - both Dalek forces rushing from planet to planet to secure vital resources for a secret/doomsday weapon. You could spice things up by having a certain resource on a planet where conditions are particularly unfriendly to Daleks - unusually strong magnetic fields or a power drain of some description - this could further level the playing field with regards to the special weapons Daleks or present the Imperials with the difficult task of taking a heavily defended Renegade mining outpost with hordes of weaker troops like Ogrons or Robomen. And there are the natives to consider...

I like the idea of an unfriendly environment I have a few ideas but need to work on balancing the forces and tweaking the details will post soon as I think they work one is a raid by a small group to secure some resource so a holding action to buy time to load said resource and then a dash back to the last shuttle or a Heroic last stand to to secure Victory

Sounds like a nice little scenario - look forward to reading it. Also you get to design some wierd alien scenery - presume you've seen the stuff on Matakishi's Teahouse - very nice!

Looking forward to the scenery building love Matakishis teahouse I want to do a variation of the trees on the site and I have some old grinding wheel casings to convert into industrial scenery quite appropriate really
will try to post some pictures if I can when they are done

Sorry the Dalek Civil War is now on hold as a new project has come to mind after reading some of the old posts and some comments in the newer posts and the memory of a game played some months ago at the gaming club I attend
I hope this will be of more use to more people will be posting the idea soon as
once again sorry if you were looking forward to the civil war it is coming just not as soon as it was
