PROLOGUE 1 - RECON

On the barge, they drew lots to see who wanted to scout out the situation on Tignis Majoris, and you got it. The alphas took on the task of dropping you off, on an unarmed container ship with the correct imperial codes (you can take two more legionnaire specialists with you). Everything would have been fine, but when you were already descending, the Mirzhors had already started firing droppods at the planet. As a result of anti-aircraft maneuvers, you missed a little, and instead of an imperial rear base, your container fell near a fortified area. Before landing, you heard that an artillery and tank regiments of the Cadians were based somewhere nearby.

TEST MISSION 2

PROLOGUE 2 - SABOTAGE SUPPLIES

As you pass further behind enemy lines, you see a bunch of crates being airdropped. Looks like a guardsmen platoon is being resupplied here. It seems to be a good idea to sabotage their supplies.

SCENARIO RULES

Pillaging Supplies: Starting from turning point 2, as enemy strategic gambit, select 3 quarters with least friendly operatives in it. Drop 4 supply crates into it. In addition, enemy operatives can interact with supply crates for this scenario, with following loot table modifications: 4, 12 - Ignored by guardsmen, 14 - Ignored by astartes, 15 - Replace Guardsman with player-controlled Traitor Militia, 18 - add 1 Guardsman with random datasheet.

In turning point 1, place 4 supply crates manually. Starting from turning point 1, as the Strategic Gambit, place 4 markers, roll a scatter dice for direction of their movement, and 2D3 for distance in inches. At the start of the next turning point (relative to the turning point in which markers were placed), repeat that procedure, and after the markers have moved for second time, replace them with supply crates. Note that these markers are non-interactive.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE

Destroy or loot half of the supply containers in 6 turning points.

Reward: 7BP per each player.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE

Destroy or loot 75% of the supply containers in 6 turning points.

Reward: 5BP per each player.

ENEMY OPERATIVES

Initial setup: 1 IMPERIAL GUARD SERGEANT, 1 IMPERIAL GUARD GUNNER, 4 IMPERIAL GUARD TROOPERS, 2 HEAVY WEAPONS TEAM (1 armed with Mortar, 1 armed with Missile launcher), 1 IMPERIAL GUARD SPECIALIST, 1 ARMOURED SENTINEL.

  • 1-3: 2 IMPERIAL GUARD GUNNERS
  • 4: 1 KASRKIN GUNNER
  • 5: 2 KASRKIN TROOPERS
  • 6-7: 1 KASRKIN SPECIALIST
  • 8-9: 4 IMPERIAL GUARD TROOPERS
  • 10: 1 IMPERIAL GUARD MEDIC

Whenever it's supposed to be Heavy reinforcements, if there is no ARMOURED SENTINEL in the killzone, add an ARMOURED SENTINEL to the Reinforcments enemies group.
