Those interesting scenarios

As I promised, though a little later than planned, I have a summary of the missions from the 500pt tournament. They were all well written and the TO got many compliments on them.

Primary mission goals: Killpoints
Secondary mission goals: +1 if one of your Hq survive. +1 if you have more troop units on the board.
+3 if you table your opponent. -1 if all of your HQs are dead. -1 if your army is not completely painted.

-1 if none of your models make it to safety. -1 if your army is not completely painted.
 So there they are. They are further explained on each sheet, and I enjoy how they all run together to tell a story. There are "thought of the day:" quotes on each page.... my favorite one being "Victory needs no explanation; defeat allows none"

Each sheet has the full mission and a score section. 15/10/5 break down for W/D/L and two copies were provided for each table and one being turned in after both players had signed.
I was lucky enough to be able to keep my copy each game.

I hope you all enjoyed them, maybe got inspiration from them. I plan on attending more tournaments by this host and I look forward to many more interesting missions.
