Here is another scenario you will find in Missions of Tomorrow, the first supplement to Future Tales. In Wrecking Crew, you must track down a group bent on destroying an entire community. Will you succeed? Here's a preview.
Bart Blast, YM-3, and Wilma Chatter meet with the leaders of the town of Buckman. Apparently, a group of aliens called the Squam were recently exiled from the town for torturing the populace, and now there are reports that the Squam are building weapons as part of a plan for revenge. Bart and his friends set out to locate the Squam before they can complete their deadly experiment.
The trio encounters a village of primitive natives. Luckily, they are peaceful, and after a few minutes of questioning (Wilma happens to be skilled at communication), they point the group in the direction of the Desert Wastes.
Crossing a dried-up lake, the group is ambushed by Sand Racers, who look a little too hungry as they approach the three heroes.
But our heroes have an ace up their sleeves! It turns out, Wilma has the Animal Friend attribute and can communicate with the racers. Informing them that the trio are friends and not food, she gets them to continue in search for other morsels, while Bart wipes the sweat off his brown that has nothing to do with the temperature.
An hour later, they find it; a device constructed by the Squam but abandoned for some time. Perhaps they left it behind after running tests and now have the final product at their camp.
YM-3 attempts a Solve Puzzle to figure out the device, while Bart and Wilma watch from a short distance away.
FAIL! YM-3 is zapped (Trap!) and goes OOF. Bart and Wilma rush to their companion's side. But before they can help, the now-duo hears growling noises behind them and turn.
Two more Racers, and this time, they don't feel like talking! One goes for Bart and the other sizes up Wilma as a potential meal.
With lightning speed, Bart drops his foe with a single shot. Wilma tries to blast her target, but it closes the distance before she can react, and before she can blink, Wilma finds herself face-to-snout with the final Racer.
Smashing it in the snout with her pistol, she drops her opponent and survives the battle.
With the threats no longer in sight, the two revive their friend, who's shaken and a little jumpy, but not the worst for wear.
Unfortunately, YM-3 was unable to figure out the device, and the group fails to gain a clue. However, they do notice smoke from the mountains and decide to investigate.
No Travel Scene. Looks like the trio will reach the mountains uninterrupted. Even though they failed to gain a Clue, they continue with the scenario. However, with one less clue, will they still reach the Squam before the creatures finish their weapons?
And what will happen in your game?
This scenario and three others are found in Missions of Tomorrow, a supplement to Future Tales. If you don't have Future Tales, you can also use Fringe Space, Back Alleys, Larger than Life, and even Chain Reaction.
Missions can be played single player, same side, and even head to head.
Keep watching as Missions is coming soon from Two Hour Wargames!
