QUICK & DIRTY VBCWTURN SEQUENCE

Initiative, Movement, Firing, Melee, Morale/Rally

INITIATIVE

Both sides roll 1d6, whoever rolls the highest has initiative for this turn. The side that lost the initiative on the previous turn adds +1 to the roll.

Any time a 6 is rolled roll another d6

1- Time for tea: One of your militia units, chosen by your opponent, does nothing this turn as it stops to have a cuppa.

2- Thats the bugger!: Choose one of your militia units, that unit gets +1 to all shooting or melee rolls this turn as someone in the unit recognises the cad on the other side who tried to seduce his wife...

3- Cough! Splutter! Cough!: Choose one of your opponents vehicles (not an aircraft), that vehicle breaks down and cannot move again until your opponent repairs it by throwing a 5 or 6 during his Morale phase.

4- Whats Phil done with the keys?!?: One of your militia or regular infantry units, chosen by your opponent, runs out of ammunition. The unit may not fire again until two members of the unit get to another friendly unit, to scrounge what ammo they can, and back again.

5- I have a cunning plan!: Choose one of your opponents militia units, you get to move them this turn.

6- Incoming!: One of your militia units, chosen by your opponent, does nothing this turn except hit the deck as it believes its about to come under heavy fire. Any shooting rolls against this unit receive an extra -1 and only veterans roll extra d6's per 6 rolled.

If both sides suffered the same amount of casualties each side rolls 1d6 with -1 for militia and +1 for veterans. The winner of the roll gets to move its figures first.
