I have written out the 6 General Scenarios for gangs to choose from. They are supposed to be playable on any battlefield and work as a good standard scenario. Feel free to critique them.
I also added the scenario special rules to the document and added the "Horrors In The Dark" Special rule (though I might change it later). My next plan is to either create the Cunning Scenarios or the Brutal Scenarios. I still need to add the orks to the House Legacy document. Once I have that done, I want to see about getting an online playtesting group going to help motivate me to clean up the documents and see what works and what doesn't. That will also give me the chance to start building and painting models and terrain for more in person play.

After deployment, starting with the gang who finished deploying fighters first, take turns deploying 4 loot caskets within 2” of the middle line.
The escape route is the battlefield edge of the attacker’s deployment zone.
Tactics: Random (3) - Draw three times from the tactics deck and add them to your hand. Underdog crews may draw one additional card at random.
Objectives: The battle ends when any of the following are true:
- Looting the Battlefield - The attackers are attempting to secure the 4 loot caskets and move them off via their escape route. The caskets are valuable whether or not they have been opened, even if converted into an ammo cache - however, if the ammo cache is exhausted it can't be claimed by the attacker. Note that only those 4 loot caskets placed as part of this scenario can be claimed by the attacker. The attacker automatically wins if they claim more loot caskets then left on the battlefield. If one of the 4 loot caskets (or ammo caches) are within 1” of the attacker’s board edge at the start of the End phase, it is claimed and removed from the battlefield. Any attacking fighters within 1” of the escape route can escape at the start of the End phase (even if Seriously Injured). They count as being Out of Action for the purposes of Bottle tests. The defender wins if there are more unclaimed loot caskets at the end of the battle than claimed.
- Last Man Standing - The last remaining gang wins the scenario. If no gang remains, the conflict is a draw.

Finally, each gang sets up a gang relic in their own deployment zone, at least 5” away from any edge of the battlefield.
