Am I the only one that isnt afraid of 9 riptides?

I can deal with 5 pretty easily, they are not scary except for the 1-2 that get the buff commander.

My Necron's and/or my FMC spam Tyranids would smash 9 riptides!

Im waiting for the all knight army.. easiest win my Necrons will ever have!

I wonder if the different text on the bottom of the cards has anything to do with the scenario's. Perhaps you only run certain ones with each mission? Or they have different effects depending on which mission it is? A scenario built solely on what the cards give you points for would be a little off.

Without knowing everything, it's hard to say. But card objectives would still be known to your opponent (right?) and wouldn't be too different than having objectives that you score points for on turns 2-5.

Then again, if its better than scoring first blood and then denying giving anything else up by flying your FMC's off the table until they need to come on to contest, I'd be up for it.

There is a rumor that the cards will certainly interact differently in different missions.
