I've seen a lot of threads asking how to get better at maneuvering. The short answer is "practice, practice, practice". It's tough to practice alone, and not everyone has an easy time finding an opponent. That's why I built this map, using Fantasy Flight's handy mission builder.
It's a single player map with rules for targets shooting at you. It isn't exactly an AI, it doesn't really pretend to use actual units. Instead I've created something that tries to approximate ***** shooting. Anyway: have at it!
