C'mon dudes..... help us see 5th "ride off into the sunset" with a fantastic farewell tourney!

Come up to the Bookery!

I'm starting off with some basic stuff first. Each mission will have 3 objectives. Primary = 7 points, Secondary = 5 points, Tertiary = 3 point. The objectives will be explained for each mission, most points win the game. It's basiclly the same as most objectives win the game (which seems to be popular right now) except that the point values will ensure there are no draws. Pretty standard stuff.

Over all Tournament scoring is as follows: 1) W/L record, 2) objectives (1st tie breaker), 3) victory points (2nd Tie Breaker)



Mission 1

Pitched Battle/Mod. Sieze Ground (4 objective markers), Players roll off for first turn. The player that goes first places the first objective.
