Description

Jihad Turning Points: Luthien is primarily a scenario pack set on Luthien during the Jihad that was released in electronic format. The PDF was released alongside Chaos Campaign, which contains the rules for using the scenario tracks. It contains a full color, topographical map of the capital world of the Draconis Combine, along with a printable version for use with Battleforce 2.

For use with the tracks, Luthien includes random map tables, as well as suggested optional rules from Tactical Operations. It also has a listing of the units involved in the campaign and suggestions for which random assignment tables to use for each in addition to optional force abilities.

The e-book contains six, unique tracks that players can use to form a campaign arc that stretch from 3068 until 3074. Finally, record sheets for two unique 'Mechs and four WarShips are included.

From the Back Cover

Luthien. The Black Pearl. Jewel of the Dragon. The center of the Draconis Combine, Luthien had never been conquered by an enemy in over four centuries.

Then came the Jihad.

Jihad Turning Points: Luthien fleshes out the details of the conflict surrounding this pivotal world published in various Jihad Plot Sourcebooks. Additionally, players can join one of the myriad of units fighting for control—and survival—of the Combine’s capital world. Enemies from within and without seek to cut off the Dragon’s head, while loyal samurai fight to save it.

This new campaign series uses the Chaos Campaign rules and gives players the option of fighting individual battles, following a campaign arc, inserting it into their own campaigns and even create their own scenarios with optional rules to give their games a “Luthien flavor.” The ebook includes a detailed map of the world of Luthien, a run down of the forces involved in the conflict, and several tracks that players can use to run simple lance-on-lance battles, or stage up to a world-wide invasion. Only the players’ imaginations are the limits.
