CAMPAIGNS & SCENARIOS
CAMPAIGNS
Creating and playing campaigns is for advanced players. Experienced players may try out one or two of the scenarios in the rulebook to find out how a campaign can be created. If you succeed in playing a campaign and reach the highest level, than you might want to create a campaign of your own. Or, the other way around, it is also possible to create your own scenario/campaign to be able to finish the mission successfully. Countdown special ops gives you the opportunity to set up your own campaign. Create your own campaign from a serie of three missions. Before the start of the first mission the players select the different locations (level 1, 2 and 3) or randomly draw one location from each level. The 90 threat cards are used to create one threat deck. The level 1 threat cards on top and the level 3 threats on the bottom. Each mission the level of the threat cards goes up and it gets harder for the special ops to end a mission succesfully. On the other hand, a campaign is being played with 4 support cards with special features that may help the team on the critical moment. Experienced players may create their own campaign, choose the type of targets, etc...
Examples of campaigns will be posted here later...
SCENARIOS
More structure is given by the scenarios in the rulebook of Countdown special ops. The designers have created three specific scenarios with increasing difficulty levels. From operation Ace to operation Civilization, the locations and the starting threat levels get harder and harder. If you and your team has succeeded in reaching the end goals (+1 mission score or more at the end of a mission) you can be called a hero and it is about time that you created your own scenario/campaign.
Scenario Operation Ace will be posted here later...
