Hello all,

In the RB the most if not all the mission state whoever sets up first takes first turn (as long as they don't get seized). I thought I heard from someone where that this has now changed. Going forward the person who sets up first gets a +1 to their dice roll when the players roll off who goes first.

Is this only for new missions that will be released or does this count for the older ones as well?

Thanks!

Nothing has changed in any official capacity (though the rumour is this will be one of things in the upcoming Chapter Approved). groups are simply adopting some changes that major tournaments have done (the LVO IIRC), as of right now its simply a house rule.

Ahhhhh gotcha, thanks for the clear up. I was checking through the FAQ's and couldnt find a thing!

Yeah. It's not official yet although it's a safe bet that it's coming.

It's been announced that it will be in the Chapter Approved. People are adopting it because we know it's an official rule later this year.

It might not be. In previous versions of CA the rules were divided up into "miscellaneous rules", "codex updates", and "trial rules". AFAIK we don't know which one this will fall into.
