2.0 The Three Player Scenario The White team is removed from play Yellow gets Hatti (140 possible points) Red gets Nubia, Cimmeria and Judah (160 possible points) Blue gets Elam (100 possible points). No handicapping points at present. Elam is usually a pretty good territory scorer and I'm not sure Red is getting quite the bargain it looks (especially if Nubia succeeds and Assyria wants Memphis). If a victory condition on the White Sheet involves the killing of the new owner's units (whether with or without other units) and this condition is not achieved by game's end then the point score is deducted. (Pour encourager les autres). 4.0 and 5.0 The First Five Turns Scenario (to the end of the Middle Assyrian Empire) Use the set-up in the rulebook and the arrival details given below.
