______________________________________________________________

Map Bio - Obi-Wan found the old abandoned dwelling when he began his exile on the desert planet. After riding his eopie in a widening circle around the Lars homestead, he found a small hut close enough to the Lars farm so he could watch over Luke Skywalker, but far enough away so he could be considered a hermit and nobody would take much note of him. He kept books containing information about the Jedi there, as well as the supplies and equipment needed to create new lightsabers. Following his escape from Cloud City, Luke Skywalker lived there for several weeks, doing just that. -Wookieepedia

I should have time to update this tomorrow or the next day. Am I doing everything right so far?

Once you are ready to start having input on this, you need to post a link for this thread in the voting thread so everyone knows about it. We need to have a VS file for the map and a broad outline for what you want the scenario to look like before we can start discussing ideas though. I'm a bit confused by your Overwhelming Forces rule, is the Empire going to be part of this somehow? Or did you just copy and past that from the Battle for Hoth thinking you could reword it later to fit the Raiders?

I just copied and pasted. I did the editing from my phone, so it wasn't perfect. I should get a chunk of time later in the week to add everything I've got so far. I just wasn't sure what I needed to title it and how many posts to reserve etc.

Reserving posts is not an issue; mac or I can add, merge or delete posts as necessary if we need to make room or add in a slot for a post.

Made some major revisions. Got it down to 1 RotV, but there isn't as much sand. It is also much smaller. Got a Mediafire account and linked the PDF to the OP.
I have not built this with the revisions yet, but I think it will be a lot better since it only requires 1 MS. The scenario should be more fun than before with the addition of the snipers too.

Tusken snipers?

Coming soon to a playtesting thread near you.

Guessing it will be episode one, if my star wars geek brain is right, it should fall in line with the tuskens shooting at the pod racers in episode I, And we'll see them sooner if we play test the current ones quicker. Process...of...elimination..Its a fun process though.

With Obi-Wan & Luke being able to just stay in the cave and limit the Tusken's mass movement and number of attacks, I'd give the points advantage to the Raiders. If you want to include the Snipers you can do that but then this map can't be an officially released scenario until they come out, which might be a while. With Obi-Wan & Luke can just stay inside to avoid them and their superior range.
