STARCRAFT with BROODWAR

Planning Phase In turn order each player secretly places 1 order on any planet that he either has friendly forces on or is adjacent to such a planet. Each planet will have 1 order stack on a LIFO basis. You may issue as many gold orders as you wish. Defend orders are placed face up in a friendly area and resolved immediately - move units into the area as per mobilize order rules and place a guard token there. All players have placed 4 orders Execution Phase In turn order remove 1 of your orders from the top of any stack. You may either execute this order OR draw an event card instead (place in your area without looking at it.) You may only execute a gold order if there are less orders in your special order pool than you are allowed to issue according to your R&D modules built . Then Place that order into the special order pool. All orders executed in a strategic area are counted as gold orders, which are not moved to the special order pool. If all of your orders are obstructed, skip your turn and draw an event card (place in your area without looking at it.) Phase ends when there are no more orders on the board. Orders No more Orders on the board

Offensive: Player may ignore the (c) ability of the Air Support module, but must destroy each transport used to ferry the units to that area in order to do so.
