What changed v925 → v931

Some rules allow units to perform actions. Each action states:

▪■ STARTS: When it is started.
▪■ UNITS: Which friendly units can perform it.
▪■ USE LIMIT: How many times friendly units can start it.
▪■ COMPLETES: When it completes.
▪■ EFFECT: What the effects of completing it are.
▪■ Any additional restrictions that may apply.

STARTING AN ACTION

A unit iseligible to start an action unless one or more of the following apply to that unit:

▪■ It is not on the battlefield.
▪■ It is an AIRCRAFT/FORTIFICATION unit.
▪■ It is battle-shocked.
▪■ It has an OC characteristic of 0 or ‘-’.
▪■ It is engaged (unless it is a TITANIC unit).
▪■ It made an advance orfall-back move this turn.
▪■ It started another action this turn.

If a unit starts an action, until the end of the turn:

▪■ It is not eligible to shoot (excluding TITANIC units).
▪■ It is not eligible to declare a charge.

COMPLETING AN ACTION

If a unit performing an action makes a move (excluding pile-in and consolidation moves) or leaves the battlefield, that unit does not complete that action. Otherwise, when an action is completed, its ‘Effect’ section is triggered.

This ability always takes the form Deadly Demise X. Each time a model inwith this unitability is destroyed, after the units embarked within it (if any) have made their emergency disembark moves, roll one D6. On a 6, that model suffers a deadly demise; each unit within 6" of that model suffers a number of mortal wounds denoted by X (if this is a random number, roll separately for each unit within 6").Example: An Impulsor with a unit of Intercessors embarked within it is destroyed by ranged attacks. First, any unresolved attacks made by the attacking unit are resolved. Then the Intercessors make an emergency disembark move. Then the roll is made for the Deadly Demise ability, and on a 6, that ability is resolved. Finally, the Impulsor is removed from the battlefield.

Each combination of Primary Missions has three recommended layouts, labelled A, B and C. These can be found in the Warhammer 40,000 app and at the end of this companion. As directed by the Warhammer Event organiser, the players either use the layout specified or randomly determine which of these layouts to use.

We recommend running through layouts A, B and C sequentially, repeating this as needed for the number of games being played.

Examples: For a 5 round event, we recommend the layout order A, B, C, A, B. For a 6 round event, we recommend A, B, C, A, B, C. For an 8 round event, we recommend A, B, C, A, B, C, A, B.

ERRATA AND FAQs
When playing in a Warhammer Event Mission, the following amendments to cards in the Chapter Approved Mission Deck are used.
None.
Questions about the Chapter Approved Mission Deck will be reviewed periodically and answered below. Newly added entries are marked in red.

Q: For the purposes of VP scoring limits, is the end of the battle the same timing as the end of the fifth battle round? A: No, VP scored at the end of the battle are not subject to the 15VP per battle round scoring limit. Q: When a mission action places an operation marker and applies a status (e.g. 'decoyed'), does removing that operation marker also remove that status?
A: Yes.

Q: Some Primary Mission cards let a player place operation markers on the battlefield. Can I remove these?
A: Your Primary Mission card will specify how and when you can remove operation markers from the battlefield. If it doesn’t, you cannot remove operation markers.

Q: For the Death Trap Primary Mission, one objective reads ‘One or more enemy units that started the turn within a terrain area were destroyed, if that terrain area is trapped.’ Does that terrain area have to have been trapped at the point that enemy unit was destroyed?
A: No.

Q: For the Surveil the Foe Primary Mission, one objective reads ‘One or more enemy units were surveilled this turn, unless each of those units is within range of one or more objectives that have one or more operation markers within range of them.’ For an enemy unit within range of an objective with an operation marker, can I achieve this objective if I remove the operation marker after surveilling that unit, as long as it is within the same turn?
A: Yes.

Q: For the Vital Link Primary Mission, if there is more than one central objective, can I score the cumulative VP for my operation markers regardless of which central objective(s) they are within?
A: Yes, as long as you control the objective(s) those operation markers are within.

Q: The Plunder Secondary Mission references ‘One unit within a terrain area that is not within your territory.’ Is the requirement to be ‘not within your territory’ referring to the unit or the terrain area?
A: The terrain area.

Q: If the unit I select to be my Beacon unit upon drawing the Beacon Secondary Mission is destroyed prior to achieving the mission, can I select a new Beacon unit?
A: No, which means you will be unable to achieve that mission. We recommend discarding it on your turn to gain 1CP!

Roll one D6. On a 1-5, use the single central objective point as shown at the centre of the Deployment card. On a 6, instead use two central objective points: locate these 6" either side of the single central objective point, along the dashed line used to separate the players’ territories.

Roll off, then take turns placing terrain features, starting with the winner.

▪■ For each objective point, set up one terrain feature so that it covers that point on the battlefield. A terrain feature set up in this way is a terrain objective.

▪■ Then set up any remaining terrain features.

If you are using Tactical Missions, shuffle your Secondary Mission deck face-down.

▪■ At the start of your Command phase, draw two Secondary Missions face-up from your Secondary Missions deck; these Secondary Missions are active for you.

▪(Once■(Once per battle) At the end of your Command phase, you can spend 1CP to discard one of your active Secondary Mission cards and draw one new Secondary Mission card.

At the end of each player’s turn, each player does the following, starting with the player whose turn it is:

▪First,■First, if you met the conditions on one or more Secondary Missions, you can gain the VP specified on that card. If you do, and if you are using Tactical Secondary Missions, discard that Secondary Mission – it is achieved.

▪Then,■Then, if it is your turn and you are using Tactical Secondary Missions, you can discard one or more of your active Secondary Missions. If you do, you gain 1CP.
