Tournament Details
Spoiler:
All missions use the Reserves, Night Fighting, and Mysterious Objective rules. Trees and water terrain must be rolled for on the Mysterious Terrain tables, but once a roll has been made, it will apply to all terrain of that type on the table for the duration of that game.
Round One (11 am to 1 pm) - Trick or Treat Deployment Type - Dawn of War (long edges)
Fend off your opponents as you gather your treasures, but beware that not all of your plunder will benefit you. This mission uses all the rules for the Crusade mission, with the following exceptions: do not roll for Night Fighting, it becomes night automatically on the fifth turn. At the end of the game, each objective is worth d3+1 victory points.
Round Two (2 pm to 4 pm) - Let's Start a Riot! Deployment Type - Hammer and Anvil (short edges)
The stage is set and blood is in the air. There is no strategic points to defend, no vital assets to capture, only a throng of foes with rage in their eyes, gathered beneath a blood-red moon. This mission uses all the rules for the Purge the Alien mission, with the following exceptions: do not roll for Night Fighting, it is automatically night the entire game. Each player earns an additional Victory Point for each character they kill in a challenge.
Round Three (5 pm to 7 pm) - All Soul's Night Deployment Type - Vanguard Strike (diagonals)
As midnight passes and the blackness deepens, specters of the restless dead rise from their unmarked graves to silently re-enact the long forgotten battles of the past. This mission uses all the rules for the Crusade mission, with the following exceptions: do not roll for Night Fighting, it is automatically night the first turn. Any unit in Reserve may be deployed using the Deep Strike rules.

Q: Do Pink Horrors generated by the Portalglyph generate psychic powers?
A: Pink Horrors generated by the Portalglyph generate a single psychic power from the Change table. Note, however, that since the unit comes into play after the beginning of the turn, they will not generate a Warp Charge until the beginning of the following player turn.
