Alright folks. Where is every going and how many do you expect to be there? Looks like I will be making the drive to MN pending a setback. Not sure which army I wanna bring quite yet as the scenario's are a mystery. So where is everyone else going? I will update the thread as it goes along.

My count so far:

East: 18(pre-registered)
West: 12+ (pre-registered)
North: 18+ (pre-registered)

I called the north store and they have 15 pre-registered already. They also stated that GW will be posting the scenario's online according to the person that contacted them.

There's a dozen signed up now for the East. I expect that will about double as many people procrastinate or don't sign up at all.

It looks like I may end up being able to go to the West Coast one after all, so put me down for that. There are at least 12 people if not more signed up for the West Coast finals, I guess they don't post on Dakka!?

'

Lol at mission one being impossible to massacre if you roll bad! OP updated with scenario's!

Mission 1: 50% chance of objectives not counting.


Mission 2: If a unit is in more than 1 table quarter the unit counts as being in the table quarter it cannot control any quarters. (proof read much?)

Mission 3:
Objective:
Use the Annihilation scenario found on page 91 of the rulebook.
Deployment:
Use Dawn o War found on page 93 of the rulebook.

Well there goes guard. lol! Was a nice run!

Yeah, I think its really slowed that if nobody can roll a 4+ in the first mission that you can't get a massacre =(.

I will be attending in the East.

And yes, first scenario = bad. Or actually, it's fine, but they made it too damn random, as usual. Not a scenario for competitive play.

Mission's 2 & 3 are basically straight from the book missions. Ok, that's fine, but really, not a lot of effort put into it, heh?

And yeah, learn to proof read, damn.

Probably up to 17-18 in the East now. I'll count them up when I get in to work tonite. I expect we'll have more signing up/showing up. Not a problem since we have room, but tougher to get all the tables ready ahead of time.

MN, guard. so why is guard out? seems the first two we would have a good shot, with our excessive scoring unit capability.

Adjusted numbers accordingly!

Mission 1: Its okay unless both of your objectives don't work for you then you have to charge your opponent. Not the way guard like to do things lol.

Mission 2: Works for guard if you can keep them all alive.

Mission 3: You will most likely be playing a top tier army with low kp. It will be almost an auto loss for guard.

Tomb King Just take IG. Since I didnt make it to the Finals Im going to a tournament in Fresno, Ca called Fall Brawl on the 22nd of Oct. First two missions are kill points and Im taking Blood Angels with 19 Kps in my list. Once I saw the missions I was shaking my head but I like my list alot so Im not changing so I say just take IG since that is what you have been playing.

That is what I have been thinking. I might just take my IG just to prove the strength of my list. The other part of me wanted to take my dark angels because the missions support that army more. I think I will just take the 56th Mechanized Infantry Division out for one more campaign. The men grow restless with all the fighting.

Questions I have about the missions.. all about mission 1..

If mikhaila would respond with his intentions to rule on these saturday, would be greatly appreciated..

Mission 1:

1) If a unit is in a Transport must they disembark to dig?
2) if not needed to disembark, Can the transport fire while the unit inside digs?
3) Can a unit dig again, if bad result?
4) if a different unit gains objective can it dig, after it was already dug?
