This booklet is intended for owners of Edition 1.0 of the MASTER Rulebook and details the changes, clarifications and amendments found in Edition 1.1 of DYSTOPIAN WARS. Using this booklet, owners of Edition 1.0 are upgraded to the Edition 1.1 rules. GAME SETUP FLEET ORGANISATION A Core Force can be Naval, Armoured or Aerial. It is important to choose a Core Force and Maximum Fleet Value, and also to consider which Game Type you are building a Fleet for; an Open Game, Friendly Game or Tournament Game. Players should also agree whether Field Orders will be used and also the Game Length. A Maximum Fleet Value (MFV) can be any Points Value agreed upon by the players. In a Friendly or Tournament Game your Fleet MUST contain: 1 Squadron of Small models, 1 Squadron of Medium models and 1 Squadron of Large or Massive models from your Core Force. TERRAIN Crunchy Terrain is now defined as Dense Terrain. In a Tournament game the following percentages of the MFV are enforced: up to 70% on Large or Massive models, up to 70% on Medium models, up to 40% on Small models and up to 50% on Squadrons that are NOT part of the Core Force. Terrain is allocated a Surface Height relative to the Size Class of a model or token; Tiny, Small, Medium, Large or Massive. FLEET COMMODORES Each Turn a player can have their Fleet Commodore perform ONE of the following re-roll options: GAME LENGTH Game Length should be defined as either a Fixed number of Turns or a Time Limit. One Treacherous Terrain roll for a model in their Fleet within 8 of the Fleet Commodore s Vessel. One Critical Hit Table roll against an enemy model fired on by a model in their Fleet within 8 of the Fleet Commodore s Vessel. One Critical Hit Table roll against their own Fleet Commodore s Vessel. One Damage Repair roll for a model in their Fleet within 8 of the Fleet Commodore s Vessel. The contents of this book are Copyright Spartan Games 010-01. All rights reserved. 1

MEASUREMENT BATTLEFIELD SETUP Divide the Game Board into by areas. Each side rolls 1D6 for each area. On a 5 or 6 they can place a piece of Terrain in that area. Both sides roll for one area before moving on to the next. For Naval models, turning is made from the centre of the model on the appropriate side. For Armoured models, Broadside and Fixed Channel weapon measurement is taken from the base edge, and turning is made from the front of the base on the appropriate side. If the model is not affixed to the supplied acrylic base, use the model itself for measurement purposes instead. DEPLOYMENT Each side rolls D6. The winner chooses ANY edge of the Game Board as their Deployment Edge, the opposing player must take the opposite edge as their Deployment Edge. The Deployment Zone for each side is the length of their Deployment Edge, and extends 8 into the Game Board. For Aerial models turning is made from the front of the Flight Stand on the appropriate side. The side that chose their Deployment Edge first then deploys one Squadron in their Deployment Zone, the opposing side then deploys one Squadron in their Deployment Zone. Players alternate deploying Squadrons until all Squadrons are fully Deployed. All measurement from a weapon Battery is taken from the centre of the model. A Federated States of America Rocket Battery is treated as a Turret when determining Line of Sight and Range. ORDER OF PLAY FIELD ORDERS Field Orders are the Victory Conditions for a Fleet. Immediately after Deployment, each Fleet should openly roll 1D6 to get their Field Order. Phase 3 is renamed Squadron Activation Sequence. The Squadron Activation Sequence table gives a breakdown of all possible actions. Phase 4 (End Phase) contains all of the following events: Check for End of Game, perform any Compulsory Actions, make any Damage Repair Tests, make any Bravery Tests, rationalise Game Markers and draw new Game Cards. Derelict or Prize models will Drift during the End Phase. 1. Destroy or Capture at least 70% of the Maximum Fleet Value of any opposing Fleet in Victory Points.. Destroy all Large and Massive models in any opposing Fleet. 3. Destroy or Capture at least 50% of the Maximum Fleet Value of any opposing Fleet in Victory Points, including all Medium models. 4. Destroy or Capture all models in any opposing Fleet belonging to its Core Force. 5. Destroy or Capture at least 50% of the Maximum Fleet Value of any opposing Fleet in Victory Points, including all Small models. 6. Capture the Fleet Commodore s Vessel of any opposing Fleet. COMMAND Command Distance is measured from the CENTRE of one model to the CENTRE of another. There is no Command Test for not being part of the Commanded Element. Any models that are NOT within Command Distance of at least one other model in the Commanded Element are not part of the Commanded Element, and are Out of Command. If a model returns to being within Command Distance of the Commanded Element at any point it is no longer Out of Command. The default Field Order is Destroy or Capture at least 70% of the Maximum Fleet Value of any opposing Fleet in Victory Points.. It can ALWAYS be chosen by a player instead of their randomly generated Field Order. This is also used in any game without Field Orders, or without any specific scenario Victory Conditions. Models that are Out of Command CANNOT perform ANY of the possible Firing Options (Linked Fire, Combined Fire, Split Fire or Indirect Fire), CANNOT have Game Cards played on them and CANNOT initiate a Boarding Assault. A Fleet wins the moment it satisfies its Field Order during the game, scoring a Crushing Triumph. If neither side wins before the end of the game the total number of Victory Points scored by each Fleet is used to determine who has won. Any Break Test or Bravery Test is taken for the WHOLE Squadron. If a Squadron is Broken, all models in the Squadron suffer the same effects as an Out of Command model.

SQUADRON ACTIVATION SEQUENCE Command Segment 1 Declare the Commanded Element for the Active Squadron, if necessary. a Perform movement for the Active Squadron. b Resolve any Collisions or Rams resulting from movement for the Active Squadron. Movement Segment Combat Segment 3a Declare ALL Attacks from Ordnance and Auxiliary weapons for the Active Squadron. 3b Declare ALL Counterattacks from any targeted Squadron 3c Resolve ALL Tiny Flyer Combat Resolve ALL Counterattack Ack Ack against Flying or Obscured models or tokens, that is NOT from Tiny Flyers. Resolve ALL Counterattack Concussion Charges against Diving models or tokens. Simultaneously resolve ALL Attack or Counterattack Ack Ack between Tiny Flyers. Simultaneously resolve ALL Attack or Counterattack Ack Ack between Tiny Flyers and Flying or Obscured models. Resolve ALL Attacks from Ordnance weapons by Tiny Flyers. 3d Resolve ALL remaining Attacks from Ordnance and Auxiliary weapons for the Active Squadron, in any order. 4 Resolve Boarding Assaults for the Active Squadron. Boarding Segment Morale Segment 5 Resolve ALL Break Tests. Tesla Generator When a model fitted with a Tesla Generator is activated, the controlling player can choose to roll for it to gain +1D3 of Movement (Mv). Each model in a Squadron rolls independently. The extra movement must be rolled for BEFORE moving the model. Ultrasonic Pulverising Generator The Ultrasonic Pulverising Generator has a 70 degree Arc of Fire, measured from the centre of the Generator, and can target ONE model within 8, after it has finished its movement. Roll 1D6: On a or 3 the targeted model suffers the effect, but NOT the Damage, of the Chaos and Disarray Critical Hit, until the End Phase. Any model that rolled for a Movement increase from the Tesla Generator in its Squadron Activation MUST move at least HALF of their Movement, including the boost from the Generator. On a 4 or 5 the targeted model suffers the effect, but NOT the Damage, of the Chaos and Disarray AND the Shredded Defences Critical Hits, until the End Phase. If the Tesla Generator is NOT used to gain extra Movement, it can affect ONE model within 8, regardless of their Height Level, after it has finished its movement. Roll 1D6: On a 6 the targeted model suffers the effect, but NOT the Damage, of the Chaos and Disarray and the Shredded Defences Critical Hits, until the End Phase AND the Hard Pounding Critical Hit. On a 5 or 6 the model suffers the effect of a single Critical Hit, but not the Damage, rerolling any results of Double 1 or Double 6. 3

MOVEMENT COMBAT The classes of weapon are: Ordnance (Gunnery, Rocket, Torpedo and Bomb weapons), Auxiliary (Ack Ack and Concussion Charges) and Mines. A model MUST move its Minimum Move DIRECTLY ahead before performing ANY turn. A model moving Backwards can move a maximum of, and may turn while doing so. Tesla Coils (a Gunnery weapon), Rockets, Torpedoes and Auxiliary weapons CAN target Diving, Flying and Obscured models in Range Band 1 where appropriate. A model can disengage from a Collision or Ram by turning up to 90 degrees around its centre as its complete move for its Squadron Activation. Torpedoes can ONLY target Naval models. If a model has NO option but to end its move on top of another model, base or Flight Stand, the models involved must be readjusted until they are clear of each other in whichever way causes the LEAST possible disturbance. NO model should purposefully gain ANY immediate advantage from this readjustment. Medium, Large or Massive Flying models that are Obscured are hit on a 5 or 6. Line of Sight between a model on the Surface and a Flying or Obscured model can ONLY be blocked by Obstructing Terrain that is Large or Massive. Auxiliary weapons ignore models and tokens when drawing Line of Sight, but not Obstructing Terrain. If a model that uses the 45 degree Turning Template changes the side from which it measures a turn, without making any straight line movement of at least 1 between each turn, it is considered to be Snaking. Combined Fire uses the same basic rules as Linked Fire, but models using Combined Fire do not HALF the current Attack Dice value when pooling dice. Once a model is considered to be Snaking, it must take a Treacherous Terrain Test EACH time it turns. Combined Fire is only used by Escort models with their Parent Model when using Auxiliary weapons or Tiny Flyers with other Tiny Flyers in their Wing. A model on Water will Collide with Soft Terrain, a model on Land will Collide with Dense Terrain, a Flying or Obscured model will Collide with Dense Terrain. A model DOES NOT have to stop moving following a Treacherous Terrain Test due to Snaking. Indirect Fire requires either a model with the Spotter Model Assigned Rule, or a Tiny Flyer Reconnaissance Plane from the same Fleet and within 3 of the target, to provide Line of Sight. Indirect Fire can only be made at a target in Range Band 3 or Range Band 4. Kinetic Generator The Kinetic Generator gives a boost in Movement (Mv). When a model fitted with a Kinetic Generator is activated, the controlling player can choose to roll for it to gain +1D6 of Movement, which is added to its Minimum Move. If a Squadron of models are fitted with Kinetic Generators, roll for each model independently. The extra movement from the Kinetic Generator must be rolled BEFORE moving the model. A Counterattack can only be made with Auxiliary Weapons. STAT CARDS All Prussian Empire models with Tesla Coils have the Redoubtable (Tesla Coils) Model Assigned Rule. All Empire of the Blazing Sun Naval models have the Sharp Turn Model Assigned Rule. Any model that rolled for a Kinetic Generator in its Squadron Activation MUST move at least HALF of their Movement, including the boost from the Generator. The following Kingdom of Britannia models have an integrated Guardian Generator for NO points difference: Ruler Class Battleship, Sovereign Class Land Ship and Eagle Class War Rotor. A model CANNOT use more than one Kinetic Generator in any single Activation. For ALL updated Stat Cards visit our website: www.spartangames.co.uk 4

TINY FLYERS REFUEL AND REARM TINY FLYERS Each time a Tiny Flyer Wing is Deployed, either at the start of the game or when they Launch, it has 6 Fuel available and is fully Armed with any relevant Ordnance. A Tiny Flyer Wing only declares the type and number of Tiny Flyer they contain, when created and Deployed. A Tiny Flyer Wing MUST contain only one type of Tiny Flyer. All Fuel loss is now managed on a Wing basis, rather than per Tiny Flyer. Each Tiny Flyer Squadron forms a Wing when Deployed. Each Tiny Flyer in a Wing MUST remain in contact with at least one other Tiny Flyer from the same Wing at ALL times. An Abort result against a Wing requires the total number of hits that did NOT Destroy a Tiny Flyer in the Wing to equal or exceed the remaining number of Tiny Flyers left in the Wing. When created, a Fighter Plane, Dive Bomber or Torpedo Bomber Wing MUST contain between 3 and 5 Tiny Flyers and a Reconnaissance Plane Wing MUST contain only 1 Tiny Flyer. If ANY Wing makes ANY Attack using its Ordnance weapons it MUST Land on a Carrier model to be Armed again. Movement and the removal of Destroyed Tiny Flyers MUST reflect the requirement to maintain a valid Wing Formation at ALL times. COMBAT AIR PATROL SQUADRONS A single Tiny Flyer Fighter Plane Wing may be attached to a single Large or Massive Class nondiving Parent Model within 4. LOCAL AIR SUPPORT Each Fleet may contain TWO Tiny Flyer Wings for NO extra Points Cost. A maximum of one Reconnaissance Plane Wing can be selected. Important Note: A Tiny Flyer Wing that leaves the Game Board, for any reason, is Lost and cannot return. LANDING TINY FLYERS At the end of their Squadron Activation, a Tiny Flyer Wing within 4 of ANY Carrier model from the same Fleet may Land on that Carrier model and Launch as part of a new Wing, as required. Guardian Generator A Guardian Generator grants the model to which it is fitted ALL of the effects of a single Shield Generator. The Guardian Generator also grants ALL nearby Friendly models WITHOUT a Shield Generator a limited amount of protection. Roll 1d6 Shield Dice for any model, without a Shield Generator, that is hit with an Attack while within 8 of the centre of the vessel fitted with the Guardian Generator: The maximum number of Tiny Flyers on a Carrier model CANNOT exceed its designated complement of Tiny Flyers. Any excess in a Wing that attempts to Land on a Carrier model are Destroyed. LAUNCHING TINY FLYERS A Carrier model may Launch ONE Tiny Flyer Wing before performing ANY movement. The Tiny Flyer Wing is Deployed within 4 of the Carrier model and CANNOT be Activated in the same Turn that they Launch. A Carrier model CANNOT use any Generator or any Gunnery, Rocket or Ack Ack weapons during the Combat Segment if it performs a Launch action in its Squadron Activation. A 4, 5 or 6 is required to succeed against Gunnery Attacks, Ack Ack and Concussion Charges. A 5 or 6 is required to succeed against Rockets and Torpedoes. A model can only gain the effect of ONE Guardian Generator at any one time. 5

BOARDING ARMOURED BELLY This model receives +1 to its Critical Rating (CR) against any Attack or Counterattack made from a lower Height Level. A Continued Assault no longer exists. Each model uses its entire current Assault Point value in a Boarding Assault. The success or failure of the Boarding Assault is resolved in a single round. ARMOURED TOPSIDE This model receives +1 to its Critical Rating (CR) against any Attack or Counterattack made from a higher Height Level. A model CAN use a Generator and perform a Boarding Assault on the same model in the same Activation. ASSAULT WEAPON (weapon) During the Boarding Segment this model can initiate a Boarding Assault with this weapon as if it were a Robot model, using its initial Assault Point (AP) value, OR it can initiate a standard Boarding Assault using its current Assault Point value. Concussion Charges can be used to defend against a Boarding Assault from Diving models. A Captured model can be assigned a Prize Crew, and taken as a Prize. Any model involved in a successful Boarding Assault can allocate an amount of their current Assault Point value to form a Prize Crew which is used as the current Assault Point value of the model during any attempt to re-capture it. BIG FUEL TANKS - Tiny Flyers For each hit on the Tiny Flyer Wing, that is NOT a Destroyed result, roll 1D6. On a 5 or 6 ignore the hit. A Prize model CANNOT use its current Ack Ack value against a Boarding Assault, but ONE Squadron from the same Fleet as the Prize Crew can use Ack Ack or Concussion Charges if in Range. BOMBARD (weapon) When using Indirect Fire this weapon hits on a 5 or 6. If a Weapon Type is listed as being a Bombard, it automatically has this MAR. A Derelict CANNOT be the target of a Boarding Assault, but a Boarding Assault can be made against a Prize (that was previously from the same Fleet), in an attempt to recapture it. DOUBLE DECKER This model can Launch TWO Wings of Tiny Flyers during its Squadron Activation. This model s designated complement of Tiny Flyers is doubled for the purpose of calculating the maximum number of Tiny Flyers that can Land on this model. If the Assault Point value of a Prize Crew is reduced to 0, the model automatically becomes a Derelict. EMPLACED This model can be Deployed anywhere between the Deployment Edge of the player Deploying this model and the centre line of the Game Board. This model is Deployed using the standard Deployment rules. MODEL & TINY FLYER ASSIGNED RULES If NO weapon is listed for a weapon related Model Assigned Rule, the Model Assigned Rule is applied to ALL weapons on the model. ACROBATIC PILOTS - Tiny Flyers For each Destroyed result on this Tiny Flyer Wing, roll 1D6. On a 5 or 6 ignore the Destroyed result. FORWARD OBSERVER This model can fire its Bombard weapon using Indirect Fire at Range Band. If it does fire into Range Band, it does NOT need a Spotting model or Tiny Flyer Reconnaissance Plane to provide Line of Sight for it. AIR HUNTER (weapon) This weapon receives a +1 bonus to hit on its Attack Dice (AD) rolls against Obscured models. AMPHIBIOUS This model can move in Water and on Land. If moving through Water reduce its Movement (Mv) by HALF. Apply any reduction for moving through Water before making any other adjustment to the model s Movement. If a model with the Amphibious Model Assigned Rule is in Water, IGNORE the Hulking and Long Legs MARs, if it has them. HARD IMPACT (weapon) If the number of hits from this weapon equals or exceeds the Damage Rating of a target, the target is knocked back directly away from the source of the Attack. This may cause a Collision to occur. If the target model cannot move the full it still causes Collision damage as if it were a new contact. 6

HULL RIPPER If this model performs a Ram and equals or exceeds the Defensive Rating (DR) of its target, place this model with its Aft touching the opposite side of the target model, as if it had just passed underneath it in a straight line. This model cannot be touching any other model or solid terrain at the end of this movement. If there is not enough room to place this model, you cannot use the Hull Ripper Model Assigned Rule. QUICK LAUNCH Tiny Flyer Wings that Launch from this model can Activate in the Turn that they Launch. A model or token CANNOT Activate more than once per Turn. ICON If a model in your Fleet is within 8 of the centre of this model, roll an additional 1D6 when it resolves any Break Test or Bravery Test. Multiple instances of the Icon Model Assigned Rule are NOT cumulative. RUGGED CONSTRUCTION Any Attack or Counterattack against a model with the Rugged Construction Model Assigned Rule must reduce the number of Attack Dice (AD) rolled by 1. This reduction happens AFTER performing any available Firing Options. QUICK TRAVERSE (weapon) Any weapon with the Quick Traverse Model Assigned Rule can fire into EITHER the Fore or Aft Channel, but it CANNOT fire into both in a single Activation. INVENTIVE SCIENTISTS If this model uses a Generator, you can re-roll ONE of the D6 rolled, but must accept the new result. If a 1 is rolled as a result of using the Inventive Scientists Model Assigned Rule, this model CANNOT use a Generator, of any type, again during the current Activation. SHARP TURN This model does NOT need to move DIRECTLY ahead during its Minimum Move. SKILLED MINELAYERS This model can drop TWO Mines during the Movement Segment of its Activation. INDEPENDENT This model ignores the Command Distance rules and is never Out of Command. LAND TORPEDOES Torpedoes on this model can target Armoured models on Land. SPOTTER If this model has Line of Sight to a target, and is within Range Band 4 of it, a Capital Class model from the same Fleet can use Indirect Fire against that target. A model CANNOT use the Spotter Model Assigned Rule if it is Obscured LOW PROFILE This model counts as being a Small Class model for the purpose of determining Line of Sight only. SWARM TACTICS - Tiny Flyers Any Attack using Combined Fire made by Tiny Flyers in this Wing increases its Attack Dice (AD) by +. MAGNETIC MINES This model can move each Mine Marker it has dropped, that is still on the Game Board, up to in any one direction during the End Phase of each Turn. If a Mine Marker is moved so that a model is within 1 of the centre of it, the Mine explosion is resolved immediately. If this model is Lost, any Mines that belonged to it are no longer able to be moved in this way. TINY FLYER COMPLEMENT (value) This model is a Carrier model and has a designated complement of Tiny Flyers equal to the listed value. VERTICAL DIVE - Tiny Flyers Any Abort result against this Tiny Flyer Wing is calculated against the size of the Wing BEFORE Destroyed results were applied. WATER HUNTER (weapon) This weapon receives a +1 bonus to hit on its Attack Dice (AD) rolls against Submerged models. MOMENTUM This model cannot come to an All Stop and cannot move Backwards. WELL TRAINED - Tiny Flyers If attached as a Combat Air Patrol, this Tiny Flyer Wing CAN use Linked Fire with its Parent Model but ONLY against a Boarding Assault. NO REVERSE This model cannot move Backwards. 7

DICE ROLL RESULT HP LOST CRITICAL HIT EFFECT This model is Destroyed. Any models within 4 of the centre of this model, regardless of Height Level, are subjected to an attack with a number of Attack Dice (AD) equal to double the initial Hull Point (HP) value of the Destroyed model. This explosion has no effect on models that are on the other side of Obstructing Terrain. Magazine Explosion ALL 3 Shredded Defences 4 Raging Fire 5 Systems Offline 6 Weapon Damage 7 Hard Pounding This model loses 1D3+1 Assault Points (AP). 8 Engine Failure The Movement (Mv) of this model is reduced by HALF. 9 Navigational Lock 10 Fusion Leak 11 Chaos & Disarray 1 Sturginium Flare This model cannot use Ack Ack or Concussion Charges. This model loses Assault Points (AP)and gains a Raging Fire Marker. A model with a Raging Fire Marker cannot be Obscured. If this model is currently Obscured, it immediately becomes non-obscured. This model cannot use its Generators and cannot Launch Tiny Flyer Wings. The Attack Dice (AD) value of ALL Primary and Secondary weapons on this model are reduced by HALF. This model can only move DIRECTLY ahead, it cannot turn. This model cannot Submerge while affected by a Navigational Lock. If this model is currently Submerged, it immediately becomes non-submerged. This model's Critical Rating (CR) is reduced to the same value as its Defensive Rating (DR). This model cannot use its Rocket, Torpedo, or Bomb Ordnance, or Mines. Roll 1D6 for a direction (1- Fore, 3 Port, 4 Starboard, 5-6 Aft) and D6" for distance, from the centre of the model. Then place this model, maintaining current orientation, in that new position. Resolve any contact as a Collision, even if this model is Destroyed as a result of the Critical Hit. A model that is moved into Impassable Terrain, or off the Game Board, is automatically Destroyed. Players may attempt to repair Critical Hit effects during the End Phase. Roll 1D6 for EACH repair attempt: On a roll of 1, or 3, the repair has been successful and the corresponding Critical Hit effect is removed. On a roll of 4, 5 or 6, the repair attempt has failed and the Critical Hit effect remains on the model. Any Critical Hit effects that are marked in Dark Red (results, 7 and 1) CANNOT be repaired. 8
