SCENARIO BOOK
A Scenario is one complete game of RWBY: Combat Ready, a
single Battle between the Hero players and a Villain. This booklet Important: When creating Scenarios, the number of Objective
provides information on the different parts of a Scenario as well as cards used scales by the number of players. It is recommended
instructions on how to build your own custom Scenarios. Also to use one Objective in a 2-player game, two Objectives in a
included are sample Scenarios for you to begin playing immediately! 3-player game, and three Objectives in a 4-player game.
HOW TO CREATE A SCENARIO
Each Scenario features an opposing Villain that must be defeated,
has a number of Objectives with challenges for the players to
overcome, and may also have various Special Rules. These three
major parts of a Scenario must be decided upon and set up by
the players before the game can begin:
1. The Villain
2. The Objectives
3. Special Rules
Setting up a Scenario in RWBY: Combat Ready is a straightforward
process (it can even be done randomly).
First, players decide which Villain they are going to face.
Next, players choose which Objectives they wish to use in the
Scenario. Recommended Objectives to help guide you in customizing
Scenarios are listed with each Villain in the next section. Alternately,
to get started immediately, you can play one of the sample
Scenarios found on page 6.
The final item players must decide upon is if they are going to use
any Special Rules for the Scenario. Sample Special Rules are listed
on page 5. These rules change how the game is played and provide
exciting options and challenges for the players!
VILLAINS
The Villains in RWBY: Combat Ready are major antagonists found in the world of Remnant, whose devious plans must be stopped by the
players! RWBY: Combat Ready includes three Villains: Roman Torchwick, Adam Taurus, and Cinder Fall. In general, Roman Torchwick is the
easiest Villain to face, and Cinder Fall is the most difficult. When setting up a Scenario, the first decision that must be made is which Villain the
Heroes will be facing.

of Special Rules to try out:

• Players cannot take other actions, except for “Draw and Heal

• Healthy – The Villain starts the game with +10 Aura.
• Ignore the Assist effects on your cards.
• Optionally, you may use the player Fury track, allowing players to
gain bonuses as they deal Damage to each other!
• For slightly longer challenges, optionally start each player with
double their normal aura. Just use an extra cube on their Scroll
Tracker to record the additional Aura.
WHAT IS AN ENEMY?
An Enemy is the Villain, any Sub-Boss in play, or any Minion card in VETERAN HEROES
play. For example, an area Damage attack might deal 1 Damage to
all Enemies, so you would deal 1 Damage to all of those! Players can start the game with their cards already upgraded to a

SAMPLE SCENARIOS
Below are several sample Scenarios we’ve created for players to jump
in and start playing RWBY: Combat Ready! Each Scenario has a
particular Villain, different Objectives, and sometimes Special Rules,
depending on the number of players.
The Objectives listed tell how many players they apply to. Put all of the Objectives in play which apply for the number of players you have.
For example, if you want to play the Scenario “Armored Up!” with 3 players, follow the normal set up rules, making Roman the Villain for this
Scenario. Then, put Roman’s Atlesian Paladin-290 Event card into play as directed by the Special Rule. Finally, place the Roman’s Henchmen
and Sabotage Objectives into play, since both are used for 3 players. You are now ready to begin the Battle!

CAMPAIGNS
A Campaign is a string of linked Scenarios, much like the episodes of a TV show make up a season. When you play a Campaign, each
Scenario begins where the last one left off, creating an epic story and giving you more time to power up your Hero! After you beat one
Scenario, you can then go on to the next. You can play all of the Scenarios in one day, or over several game nights. Each of the sample
Scenarios provided on page 6 are set in groups of three which can be played consecutively as Campaigns. For example, the first Campaign
includes these Scenarios, played in this order: Dust Store Robbery, Diversionary Tactics, and Maiden Power.
If you lose a Scenario, the Campaign is over! If you beat all 3 Scenarios, you win that Campaign! However, the players can still continue on,
playing more Scenarios of their own design if they wish. Of course, you can also create your own Campaigns, with more or fewer Scenarios.
After the players beat a Scenario, they each gain Victory Experience which
can be used to upgrade their characters before the next Scenario.
The amount of XP gained depends upon the Villain (see Villain
Victory XP on page 2). When upgrading cards between
Scenarios like this, players are allowed to buy whatever upgrade
cards they have available and can afford, while removing the
requisite cards of their choice. Spend all the Experience you
can, and the remainder is lost.
Cards that are upgraded are carried to the next Scenario
in the Campaign, allowing players to grow stronger
with each consecutive Battle! Usually, the
Scenarios should get harder and tougher,
so you need those upgraded cards!
When players finish a Scenario, any
Objectives they did not complete do not
automatically award additional Experience.
You have to beat an Objective to gain the
Experience! However, some Objectives list
“Defeat the Villain” as their victory condition
and provide bonus victory Experience for all
players at the end of the Battle, along with
the normal Villain Victory Experience
noted above.
If an individual player is defeated in a
Scenario, they may not participate for the
remainder of the current Battle.
However, they retain all Experience
earned, including the
Villain Victory XP Bonus
when the Villain is defeated,
and can use this Experience
to upgrade their character
and participate in future
Battles in the Campaign.
