> Scenario 1
>
> Deployment, First turn, and game length are played as outlined in Battleline from the main rule book.
>
> Scenario Special Rules:
>
> Each player will need 3 objective markers for this scenario. Markers should not be bigger than a 40x40mm base. Prior to deployment, players will roll off, high roller decides who places the first marker. Alternate placing markers until both players have each placed all three of their markers. Markers cannot be placed within 18 inches of a table edge, within your deployment zone, and within 6 in. of another marker.
>
> Only a “scoring” unit may pick up an objective marker. A unit may choose to pick up an objective marker by ending its movement phase on the objective. If a unit which is carrying an objective is ever reduced to less than 1 rank or has the command model removed, then the objective is immediately dropped and placed at the center of the front of the unit. If the unit is in combat when it drops the objective, then it may be picked up automatically by one of the enemy units in base contact with the unit. A unit may only carry 1 objective at a time.
>
> The goal of this scenario is to move your own objectives off the table. A unit that holds an objective moves it off the table by moving within 1 inch of a table edge. You may not move more than 1 objective off the same table edge. ( for example, if you move one of your objectives off of your own table edge, then you must move the other objectives off of the left, right, or opponent’s table edge). If a unit holding an objective flees, it does not drop the objective, and if it flees off the table, credit is given for moving an objective off that table edge(unless one has already been moved off that edge).
>
> A “scoring unit” may pick up an opponent’s objective, but may not move it off the table. If the unit flees off the table while holding an opponent’s objective, it will drop it at the point it leaves the table.
>
> Bonus Points:
>
> An objective moved off the opponent’s table edge is worth an additional +400 vp’s
> An objective moved off the left or right table edge is worth an additional +200 vp’s
> An objective moved off your own table edge is worth an additional +100 vp’s
> An opponent’s objective held at the end of the game is worth an additional +300 vp’s
>
> +1 battle point – for each objective you move off the table
> +1 battle point – if you hold an opponent’s objective at the end of the game
> +2 battle points – if you are holding all 3 of your objectives at the end of the game
>
> A scoring unit is a unit that contains at least 1 rank, and contains at least 1 command model ( champ, musician, standard, or a character)
>
> Scenario 2
>
> Deployment, first turn, and game length are played as outlined in the Battleline scenario in the main rule book.
>
> Place 3 capture objectives on the board at the center line. 1 each at 12 inches from each end line and one at the center point of the board. Capture objectives should be no bigger than 40x40mm and have no effect on gameplay. These capture objectives do not move during the game.To control an objective, a player must have “scoring units” with the most total wounds within 6 inches of the objective. If any part of a scoring unit is within the 6 inches, that entire unit’s total wounds are counted toward the total. Non-scoring units cannot count their wounds towards control of an objective. Units that have had their number of wounds increased beyond the size they started the game at, via spells, will only count their starting unit wounds towards control of an objective. A scoring unit may only add its wounds towards controlling 1 objective, even if it is within 6 inches of more than 1 objective. The wounds will be added to the closest objective. If it is equal, then dice off to see which objective the unit controls.
>
> Each objective is worth +200 vp’s to the controlling player
>
> +1 battle point – for each objective you control
> +1 battle point – if your opponent controls no objectives
> +1 battle point – for destroying all rare units

Isn't that the place in the mall we all drove up together?
Pretty nice place I thought, and fun tournament the last time out.

At any rate, I wouldn't mind going but am in the midst of an army change and too short of a notice to jump back and touch up the Dark Elves up for the new book, and I have put away the Warriors, mentally and figuratively.

Some of you, I think went to this before. I drove (rode) up to the one in Vorhees which was in a mall.

I got the phone call...yep, a phone call....about this today which was followed by the email which I posted. I told him that I couldn't go on such short notice, but that I would put it out there. I will try to find out sooner about such events and post them. Check out Facebook on the Colonial GT site as they have listings for events there, too.

Ok, I think that was the one Corey and I went as partners and Kelly Gragg and I think it was his brother-in-law, went.

Corey slept through about 14 wake up calls and I ended up driving up to a doubles tournament by myself Shocked

he did make it by the second game though. Laughing
