MISSION GUIDELINES 11th Revision (4-29-16B)

1.0 Game Bonuses for Playing Against Super Heavy/Gargantuan LoW
​If one player has a Super Heavy/Gargantuan LoW and the other does not, the player without can roll on the Escalation Warlord Table and gains +1 to Seize the Initiative.
Every time 3 Hull Points/Wounds are dealt to a Super Heavy/Gargantuan Creature LoW, the player dealing the damage earns a bonus Kill Point for that turn/game.  If the 3rd Hull Point destroys the LoW then the player receives the bonus Kill Point and the normal Kill Point for destroying the LoW.
2.0 Additional Victory Points
Corpse Thief and Warlord traits such as Legendary Fighter or The Hunt special rules or traits that generate Victory Points will be allocated to the Progressive Mission Objective (Primary) but can never contribute more than 6 points to the possible 12 point score for the progressive missions.
3.0 Tabling
Tabling (destroying everything your opponent has) DOES NOT AWARD AUTOMATIC FULL POINTS!
When a tabling happens, you MUST immediately call a judge to the table.  At this point, the judge will watch as play out the rest of your remaining game turns and score points accordingly.  Roll for end of game at turn 5 as normal.  Kill Point and Objective Differential are calculated as normal.

4.0 ORDER OF PRE GAME ACTIONS
1. Roll-off: Winner places the first objective.  Players then alternate placing objectives until all are out.  In Mission 1, “Crusade” Objectives are placed now.
2. Roll-off: Winner chooses deployment zone.  
In Mission 2, “Emperor’s Will” Objectives are placed now. Roll off to decide who places first.

3. Roll for Warlord Traits (disregard warlord traits that apply to mysterious objectives and roll again on the table until normal Warlord Trait process has run its course), beginning with the player who chose deployment zones
4. Roll for Gifts, Boons and any other pregame rolls, beginning with the player who chose deployment zones
5. Roll for Psychic Powers, beginning with the player who chose deployment zones
6. Roll for Night Fight
7. Roll-off: Winner chooses whether to deploy first or second. Fortifications are placed during deployment.
8. Roll off to Deploy Infiltrators
9. Player who deployed first must go first. (Unless the initiative is seized)
10. Roll off for Scout moves. It is courtesy to ask your opponent if he has any Scout Moves before proceeding to Seize The Initiative. If the question has not been asked and the dice has been rolled, the Seize The Initiative Attempt must be re-rolled only if the player in question actually makes Scout Moves.
11. Seize the initiative.

5.0 Team Score

A Round between teams consists of 5 individual games. Each game will score a number
of points as described above. The combined total of all player’s scores will give a result
for the Team as a whole.

A team result consist of the sum of its players game points.

Team result / match points
55-100 = Win, 2 Round points
46-54   =  Draw, 1 Round point
0-45     = Loss, 0 Round points

If two or more teams have the same number of Round points (2/1/0) at the end of the
tournament, game points gained from all battles will be used as tie-breaker.

NOTE: penalties incurred might change the above win conditions. In the cases where
penalties on round points apply, a difference of ten round points always constitutes a
win for the team with the ten points difference. If there are less than 10 battle points
between the teams it automatically constitutes a draw on the team level
