Making Sense of Steamroller 2024: Two Fronts

Privateer Press's Steamroller 2024 is out, and some of the new scenarios are outright bananas. After taking a close look at each of the new scenarios, I thought it would be worth spending a little time to give each a quick analysis and review.

Two Fronts has two 50mm objectives, two 40mm objectives, and that one wacky 30mm objective. 

This scenario is far less complex than most others in the Steamroller 2024 packet. Two 50mm objectives on one side, and two 40mm objectives on the other side, with the 30mm objective sitting square in the middle, just nine inches away from player two deployment.

The solo rules twist in Two Fronts is that if a player scores both 50mm objectives or both 40mm objectives, he gets 4VP rather than just 2VP. I foresee a lot of unit-on-unit skirmishes happening between the two 40mm objectives.

Other than that, Two Fronts is extremely straightforward. Stay tuned for tomorrow's review of the final Steamroller 2024 scenario: Invasion!
