Good report! Nice pics, too.

I had forgotten that TL templates re-roll to Penetrate, not just to wound. Good reminder there.

Really tight game; KPs by 4 is a lot. I think by 2 or 3 would be a better mission.

4 KPs does seem like a lot. Still, cool game.

Yeah not only was it 4kp, but you also had to get 300vp of separation. It led to a lot of draws in round 1. The organizer at Grim is thinking of trying out 3 or 2 next time as they continue to experiment with the mission.

I think it would be neat to have a regular KP mission (win by 1) with a secondary objective of win by 300 or more VPs. It would mean you could still get a base win by killing cheap transports, but get more tournament points if you also killed the big stuff.
