Nachmund Gauntlet Crusade Mission

Front-line Warfare

As hosts of warriors battle to defend or to overthrow the worlds of the Sanctus Wall, sprawling war fronts stretch across continents. Striving to break the deadlock, generals hurl swift strikes into the teeth of these meatgrinders.

Mission Rules

Chosen Battlefield: Starting with the Defender, players alternate setting up six objective markers on the battlefield. One objective marker must be set up wholly within each deployment zone, and the rest set up wholly within No Man’s Land. Objective markers cannot be set up within 6" of one or more other objective markers and/or one or more battlefield edges. If it is not possible to set up an objective marker as described above, it is not set up.

Victor Bonus

Each unit from the victor’s Crusade army that ended the battle within range of an objective marker the victor controls gains 1XP.

Mission Objectives

Line of Advance

End Game Objective

Opening and holding a path into the enemy’s back lines allows the push to gather pace.

At the end of the battle, if a player controls the objective marker in their deployment zone and the objective marker in their opponents deployment zone, that player scores 3VP.

Commanding Position

Progressive Objective

To maximise hopes of breaking the enemy line, you must ensure your own holds firm.

From the second battle round onwards, at the end of the Command phase, the player whose turn it is scores VP as follows:

• For each objective marker they control in No Man’s Land, they score 1VP.
• If they control the objective marker in their opponent’s deployment zone, they score 2VP.

In the fifth battle round, the player who has the second turn scores VP as described above, but does so at the end of the turn instead of at the end of their Command phase.
