    ROUND 3: 40K Escalation League @ DL Apr 9 - Apr 22

    Looks like a few Round 2 games were missed-- you folks get 0's until you play them. Catch up! (Yes, I'm talking to myself)

    Please leave feedback on the Round 1 mission there: https://www.centexwar.com/warroom/sh...4601#post64601
    Not a lot of feedback on the first mission. Should we do something really different for the third?

    Round 3

    Sloth v. Nate668
    Hogleg v. CRP
    Cavematt v. TxPlays
    ViscountAlexandru v. DandyPandy
    morella888 v. Sid
    RealGenius v. Darkwynn

    Please post results here when done.

    Mission 3: Incursion Offensive

    Armies: 1000 points
    Battlefield: 4x4 table, Dawn of War Deployment. Roll off to pick deployment zones.
    Objectives:
    • Invasion: Score 1 Victory Point for each of your units inside your opponent's deployment zone at the end of the game. Each unit with the Objective Secured rule scores an additional point.
    • Annihilation: Score 1 Victory Point for each enemy unit that has been completely destroyed (including Independent Characters and Dedicated Transports). Units that are falling back or not on the board at the end of the game, count as destroyed for the purposes of this objective.

    Deployment: Standard Deployment method (pg 132)
    First Turn: The player that set up first can choose to take the first or second turn. If they decide to take the first turn, their opponent can Seize.
    Special Rules: Variable Game Length, Reserves, Night Fighting
    Victory Conditions: Victory Points per the Objectives above. Slay the Warlord, First Blood and Linebreaker count as 1 VP each.

    Feel free to use this mission or play your own generated from the book, modified for smaller armies. 1000 point games are sometimes one-sided affairs, so play for fun.

    The following League-wide rules are in effect:
    All models have Preferred Enemy: Unpainted. Unpainted means fewer than three colors, primer counts as a color.
    All models not completely assembled always move as if they are in difficult terrain.

    Erin and I are going to play this week as catch up. This one is all on me because I was traveling for business in California and was in Adepticon.

    Jim,

    We can play Thursday.

    After reading this I have decided that the movie "Pineaple Express" should redo one of its quotes from:

    "But if you do something heroic then you'll come back as like an eagle or a dragon, or Jude Law."

    To:

    "But if you do something heroic then you'll come back as like an eagle or a dragon, or Nick Rose."

    The first round mission was really good, and we used it for Round 2 also. Using book missions is not really an option just because of the varying amount of VP available in the missions (Relic is max 6 while Scouring is 18+). With that said, will there be a mission for Round 3? I don't really want to play the same mission a 3rd time.


    Yours Truly,

    Yeah, I was going to make up a new mission. I'll try for something in the same vein as the first.

    I have a couple things I need to get painted up, so would it be okay if we play next week? Thursdays are the easiest for me, but can do other days if you need.

    We can shoot for next Thursday if that works best for you, no problem.
