Layout

Defend the Bridge 1

The Scenario is played on a 6ft x 4ft Board. The Dwarven deployment zone should have walls or other forms of defensive terrain (eg. barricades, fences, etc.). These represent the quick defences the dwarves have made for the oncoming Haradrim attack.

Starting Positions
The Dwarves start on either side of the bridge (you could roll a dice to see who gets which side or just decide) as do the Haradrim. Dwarves should be placed as near to each other as possible. The Harad should be spread out, leaving a 10cm - 12cm gap between each model. 7 Harad Spearmen are left undeployed and are kept for the second wave (see below).

Objectives
The aim of both forces is to wipe the other out. When both sides are reduced to 33% or less a dice is rolled. On a 1 the game automatically ends. Each player recieves 1 point for each model either on the bridge, or within 4cm's of it. The player with the most points wins.

Special Rules

Waves. When deploying, the Harad player deploys 10 spearmen. On Turn 2, before priority, the Harad player deploys the rest of the spearmen. From Turn 3 onwards, the Harad player rolls a dice before his movement phase. On a 5+ the Grand Scout and 4 Raiders arrive in the evil deployment zone.

The Rickety Bridge. The bridge is only wide enough for one person and any model that loses a fight must take a test on the table below.
