Yesterday I played a SOLO Pulp Alley game with my 1/400 scale pre-painted "Gundam Collection" miniatures. This should be the first scenario of a campaign that will try to follow the battles from the gundam cartoon.
It was a really fast skirmish, I played for less than an hour 😉
I was the "Gundam" player while I used the "Zeon" as bots.
Background:
"It is the year Universal Century 0079.
Mankind has moved much of its population into gigantic space colonies.
Nine months ago, the group of colonies furthest from the Earth, Side 3,
declared itself the Principality of Zeon and declared war on the Earth
Federation. Initial fighting lasted a month with both sides losing half
their respective populations. Eight months have passed since the
rebellion began and both sides are at a stalemate. Three Zeon pilots, Slender, Gene, and Denim, enter Side 7 in their MS-06F Zaku II
mobile suits. Their plan is to spy on the colony. Gene and Denim watch as the Federation prepares a
few mobile suits to be transported. Gene breaks away, ignoring Denim's
orders and fires on the suits, trying to destroy them."
The Leagues:
Principality of ZEON (10 slots, 2 models)

Overview of the board and deployment of the leagues, the major plot point is the gundam (Side 7 league), while the minor plot points are the helpless guntank and guncannon:
Gene destroy the Guncannon. (gaining a minor plot point). Amuro jumps in Gundam's cockpit and finally gets Gundam on its feet.
Amuro: "Get up, get up...It got up!"
Gene: "Sergeant Denim, the enemy mobile suit is moving!"
Denim "Damn! I didn't thought they were already operational! Retreat, Gene! We don't know its features!"
Gene fire to the Gundam, but nothing happens. Then the Gundam charge Gene.
Gene: "What kind of mobile suit is it? My bullets didn't scratch it!"
Denim: "Gene! Retreat!
After an harsh brawl, Gene is down but will recover in the next turn.
Denim: "Gene! He threw away a zaku as was nothing! What kind of...?!"
Amuro: "Really not bad!"
Gene: "Sergeant..."
Gene and Denim are defeated by the Gundam.
Amuro: "You won't escape me!"
Gene: "AAAAAH!"
Denim: "How did you dare...?!"
Amuro activates Gundam's Beam Saber
and slices through the retreating Gene's Zaku, hitting it's engine. The destruction of the Zaku's engine results in a explosion. Amuro targets Denim's cockpit, killing him and
making his Zaku useless.
At the end of the sixth turn, the Side 7 league gain a major plot poit (himself) and two minor plot points (the defeated leader and sidekick), winning the game.
