It is the year 2100 and the Resource Wars are in full swing on Earth. Nations feud to take what they can from a dying world that is all out of succour for her greedy children. The richer power blocks have established small colonies on Mars and on the Moon in partial terraforming and in dome. While the use of nuclear and chem-bio weapons is outlawed it is more out of fear than respect of life. War is everywhere and the battle lines are in field and city both. Before the strife reached its highest levels and regression began a dozen settlement ships were flung into the void in the 2080's founding Human possessions in nearby star systems. Those worlds are protected by the strained Colonial Defence Force against threat both of Earth origin and from among the stars themselves.
You might remember my musings about a brand new 100 point pre-packed army for Alien Squad Leader 2.0 back when we released the fantastic HOF27 Maginot Defence Turret and HOF28 Charger APC codes. Well the time for that release is fast approaching and its time for me to show you the composition of the 100 point army pack which will come with all the needed miniatures and all needed element bases (the great new resin cartouche bases put out a few weeks back) in a box with insert. While the Maginot and the Charger have done really well on their own its is in this army that they come into their prime. Read on:

You can learn all about Human Colonial Armies in ASQL on pages 42-42 of the Alien Squad Leader rulebook. These armies of this template type are characterised by their called up lower quality infantry defending their homeworld with the help of good defensive fire power and towers too. One of the favourite templates for beginner players from our feedback and one to use against experienced players too. This new army pack will get you into the game and playing plus it will save you 10% off list prices and the same if you choose to buy it pro-painted and based from 15mm.co.uk ready to play out of the box.
Thanks for reading.
