This past 26th of November, the workers of Vallejo Acrylics, started an strike, in search of better payment and improved labour conditions. The situation of the works in the factory of Vilanova i la Geltrú (Spain) is dire: lack of safety and hygienic protocols, low payment,"major deficiencies" in the maintenance of the building and the "obsolescence" of the machinery, among other serious problems, such as the lack of a protocol against workplace harassment. The workers have the nearly total support of the Spanish wargaming and miniature painting community, and from other countries. Vallejo Acrylics,the management, does not seem to want to sit down to negotiate with the striking workers for now, and the latter may take new protest measures. Some members of the Spanish community are calling for a boycott of the company to force it to negotiate.

FORCES Players should agree on an appropriate force size, typically between 100 to 200 points. The attacker's force must include at least one aircraft armed with ground attack weapons. The defender's force must include at least one aircraft. For every 50 points available to the attacker, select one (1) objective. SETUP On a rectangular board, players should choose one short edge for the attacker, the other for the defender. The attacker then places one of the objectives anywhere inside the quarter of the board closest to the defender's edge - this is the Primary Target. The defender then places any remaining objectives anywhere within 9 hexes of the primary objective. The defender then places any ground defenses (or determines their location) within his half of the board. Following this, players alternate placing aircraft - attackers along her board edge, defenders within the closest board quarter to his edge. SPECIAL RULES Reserves - both sides may place up to 40% of their aircraft in reserve. Reserves enter from a board edge within their sides board half. Pop Up Threat - the defender may choose to conceal the position of one-third of their ground defenses, recording their position on the board instead of placing them during setup. These defenses are revealed when they fire, or when an attackers aircraft ends it's move in the same hex. VICTORY CONDITIONS The defender scores 2 points for each attacking aircraft destroyed, as well as 2 points for each surviving objective. The attacker scores 8 points for destroying their primary objective, and 2 points for each secondary objective. Additionally, the attacker scores 1 point for each destroyed ground defense.
