Hellfire in the City is a stand-alone solo sci-fi wargames campaign. Starting small and building your forces as you go, your aim is to control the sprawling city of Velonopolis. The city is currently a patchwork of territories controlled by everything from petty thugs leading their bands of street scum through to corporate askari supported by mecha. As well as city creation and discovering what hostile forces await you, this campaign guide contains rules allowing you to build new units, even mecha. At the same time, those troops you already lead will gain experience. Starting from scratch you can put together riverine or even air mobile forces. At last you will realise why proper armies had vehicle recovery units and field hospitals. Although designed for Hellfire rules and 6mm figures, there is no reason why you couldn t convert troop types to fit with your favourite rule set. Certainly because of the way the rules were written, the campaign should be comparatively easy to drift so you can play it using Hell by Starlight. Other campaigns finish with the stirring words, Conquer or Die! In this case we allow losers to flee the city, pursued by their creditors. —description from the publisher
