    Start of Turn 2

    So, here is the map going into Turn 2:

    https://www.centexwar.com/Map-Week2.jpg

    Assets held, end of round 1:
    Spaceport - I:2 (G,R), X:1 (O), C:1 (B)
    Shield Gen - I:1 (G), C:3 (O,B,R)
    Hive City - I:2 (G,R), X:2 (O,R)
    Fuel Depot - I:1 (G)
    Bastion - X:1 (G), C:1 (O)
    Power Station - I:1 (B), X:3 (G,O,R)
    Manufactorum - C:1 (O) X (1)

    Those who have Hive cities I need to know what you want them to count as this session. Xenos I assume Command Bastions again? If I am right in that assumption that means that the following bonuses will be in effect for the start of Turn 2:

    Imperial vs Xenos:

    Xenos will have 50 bonus points
    Xenos will have +1 to deployment roll
    Xenos will have +2 to determine table sides and to seize the initiative

    Imperial vs Chaos:

    Chaos will have 50 bonus points
    Imperials will have +1 to determine table sides
    Imperials will have +1 to pick deployment zones

    Xenos vs Chaosl:

    Chaos and Xenos both have 50 bonus points
    Xenos will have +2 to determine table sides and to seize the initiative
    Xenos get +1 to deployment roll
    Xenos get +/- 1 to reserve rolls
    Xenos may generate an additional warlord trait from any allowed table


    Yes, I understand that Xenos came out on top in turn 1, and thus have good bonuses against the other factions. Remember this is in effect a beta of the new rules. Chaos and Imperials need to try to take back some of those special tiles, and if things are too overpowered we can adjust down, I have some ideas. Let's try to play as written for now though.

    With that, it's time to determine challenges. Talk in your faction sub groups and figure out where you want to strike and against which faction. Remember things are running a little differently with the challenges this turn as we try to smooth things out.

    Turn 2 Matchups

    CRP (Imperial) vs Ninja (xenos) for ranov manufactorum
    Dandy (Imperial) vs Noodlers (chaos) for w of manufactorum on orias
    Real Genius (Imperial) vs Caldera (chaos) for shield gen on balin v
    RedArmy (Imperial) vs Morella (xenos) for com bastion on geminus
    Ball4eva (Imperial) vs ccrazyman (xenos) for space SE of imperial hive city on ranov

    eaglesmvp (Xenos) vs Hogleg (Imperial) for ranov fuel depot

    ccrazyman (Xenos) vs Sloth (chaos) for orias shield generator
    zoro (Xenos) vs Txplays (chaos) for orias manufactorum

    bullymike (chaos) vs CRP (Imperial) for space port on Ranov

    Also, some of you know, but I am going to be out of town for the next two weeks vacationing in the Pacific Northwest and Cali. Still email or pm your results to me, and I will be popping in here to check up on things. I will get my games in the final week of the turn when I'm back in town, I will coordinate with whoever my opponents are. Until then have fun and keep it positive.

    Not sure if this was asked, but if we have a character/army bonus to reserve rolls as well (like an autarch), I assume a 1 still fails? Or do we get auto-reserves? (which would be rad)

    Also, so we decided that shield generator does not protect from ground attacks right?

    1's always fail.

    No, the shield generator protects your spaceport, what we decided was that a spaceport would let you strike basically anywhere on another planet where you don't have a pressence. (I would say any unclaimed or non-special spot, you still have to have a force adjacent to a special to attack it). At least that was my recollection, and I did clean up the rules from what they had before and that is what it seems to indicate.

    I thought JW had been added to Chaos.

    He was filling in for Tx Plays, but I thought TxPlays was gonna be back. JW is first up for inclusion if/when a chaos player drops.

    Two questions:
    1) Any changes to the rules for retreating?
    2) Is the roll to see if an IC survives only for named characters, or does it apply to generics as well?

    Decisions can be made begining at the top of 4, and then again at the top of 5.

    Someone else asked this, but it is intended to be all HQs, and or non-HQ ICs (not sure if there are any), (plus the special addition of the Avatar for fluff reasons). So yes, generics would roll as well.
