Question:

Primary Objective (10pts) - Listening Tower: The first time a unit ends its move in a piece of
terrain, that piece may be searched. Roll a d6. If you roll a 5 or 6 then the tower is located in
that terrain. Each piece of terrain can only be searched once.

There is just one Listening Tower or can everyone of the terrain become a Listening Tower (By share Luck?)

Only one listening tower, once it has been found you stop rolling and if a 5 or 6 hasn't been rolled by the time the last terrain piece gets entered that last terrain piece counts as the objective.

Hope this helps :)

has anyone posted on 2d6 or Trondheims site?
Is it worth putting something on Warhammer.org?

The more the merrier and all that.....

This looks awesome :D

The missions looks great and I would like to thank everyone involved in making them. I was getting slightly tired of the rulebooks ones and you managed to make diverse missions that looks balanced on paper. Can't wait to playtest :)

One question came in mind while quickly reading through them at work.


The secondary objective in Endzone.

How does this work for vehicles? Do we follow the "norm", that any result of weapon destroyed OR immobilized counts as bringing it under half strength?

Cheers

Can a vehicle be brought under half strength? Nope.

In other words, the objective only works on squads or squadrons.

Just thought I would also mention that that Objective specifically states Squad or Vehicle Squadron.

Scenario 5: Adversaries

1) What happens if my commander is in reserve at the start of the battle?
2) My main question is: does this prevent me from putting my commander in reserve?

And I want to officially state that I hate some of the scenario-writers: you're just plain evil.

Do you have to ram? Can I turboboost?
Do you have to start close?
Who goes first between commanders (shooting and assaulting etc)
You have to move forward but don't if you shoot-
what if I shoot weapons, eg pistols, that are clearly out of range? Is that cheating?

What happens to units in the chaos scenario that have deepstrike special rules?
Are Vanguard vets and Stormtroopers kings of this scenario?
