93. Mining Expedition
You can’t always take stuff from other scum – sometimes, you’ve got to go dig for it.
In the Mining Expedition scenario, two gangs fight to extract precious scrap from the underhive.
While this scenario can be played in any campaign, there are additional effects when played in an Outlander campaign. These are noted throughout this scenario.
Phase 1
Double the amount of Materials received as rewards if played in Phase 1.
