Secondary Objectives can be a lot fun especially for experienced players. They can spruce up an existing mission/scenario and introduce a layer of strategy that might be the difference between victory and defeat! Secondary Objectives can fit into any Mission where you are scoring VPs over X number of Game Turns. Most VPs are scored immediately when you satisfy the objective requirements stated on the card. Each Secondary Objective will score you 1 VP.

We provide missions that we think will be fun and thematic for RTZ. You are not limited to these missions and in fact we believe our players can come up with better scenarios on their own! Contact us with your scenarios, we would love to feature them! When in doubt, always consult your opponent and arrive at a mutually agreeable scenario, giving the advantage to your opponent if there is any uncertainty like a gentleman!

In order to go on missions for the Return to Zverograd (RTZ) narrative campaign, construct a battle force according to Dust 1947 rules and rules specific to the campaign. First, you will need to create a commander for your force. Your commander will be the leader of your force and a required unit in your Core Platoon. Usually this will be your Command Unit. Every force needs a Core Platoon which are drawn from the list of platoons from the Dust 1947 as well as platoons created for the RTZ campaign.

Known Axis Forces present at Zverograd at the end of August, 1947 Army Group “West Asia” - 11th Axis Army 33rd Panzer Division 2nd FußPanzer Grenadier Division 4th Blutkreuz Korps Kommando The divisions are shells of their former selves. Depleted companies are not replenished. The division HQs are waiting for the order to abandon the city entirely, but the order has yet to come in. Smaller than division level forces may not be tracked, an example would be forces from NDAK.

Currently there are no mercenary companies operating in Zverograd that is not aligned with one of the major blocs. Any player who chooses to deploy a pure mercenary force must fight under one of the existing bloc for the duration of the campaign. A mercenary force (100%) operating in Zverograd gets a 15% faction bonus, instead of 10%, rounding up any fraction. KV-47 Walkers (all variants) Due to standardisation, all Mercs KV-47 (including tropical versions) have 5 Health.

Known IJN Forces present at Zverograd at the end of August, 1947 The IJN has somehow managed to infiltrate the 42nd SNLF into Zverograd. While much smaller compared to the other blocs, they are fresh troops and seemingly invincible warriors. Rumours abound of sentries found the next day with their throats cut by a bladed weapon, or patrols ambushed by ghosts, only to disappear shortly after. Their intentions are currently unknown but speculation among the various HQs are rife.

Since the Vrill containment field under the old monastery failed in June, the skies over Zverograd has been swarming with terrifying flying creatures named Mi-Gos. While they have abated and seem to operate mostly by night now, the various blocs are unwilling to risk their valuable air resources to re-take the skies. Getting supplies into Zverograd is now purely by land or sea, even those aren’t safe. Mythos cultists have been streaming into the city by the hundreds, some say thousands, most carrying weapons outdated even before the war started.

Known Allies Forces present at Zverograd at the end of August, 1947 Army Group “Caspian” 13th Red Banner Army 10th SSU Rifle Division 1st Guard Motor Rifle Division 3rd Red Guards Division 666th Separate Special Purpose Brigade Note: The SSU has moved so many forces in and out of Zverograd with so many independent operations that more than once there has been ‘friendly fire’ incidents that even the commanders on the ground do not know for sure all the forces that are operating.

Known Allies Forces present at Zverograd at the end of August, 1947 Ninth Allied Army 1st Mesopotamian Army 4th MAR DIV (Left)* 3rd Cavalry Division 8th Ranger Battalion Allies forces in Zverograd are desperate and de-moralised. The Mythos and new developments has scuppered their plans for a strategic withdrawal from the doomed city. Aid from an unexpected quarter stabilised the situation but the alliance is short-lived. An agreement with mercenary forces has been made, but HQ wonders if this is enough to secure their new objectives…

“The Light Assault Walker (LAW) chassis is one of the most commonly found in the grand Allied Army. These vehicles are usually used for reconnaissance mission or flank the enemy while heavier walkers do the heavy lifting. But they can be a potent strike force when deployed in numbers."
