Tournament Mission 2 - Grudges.

Mission 2 – Grudges
Turn limit: 4 full turns.



Setup: place a Terminal in the middle of the board, with no Cover within 5" of it.  The Terminal should be about 2"x2"x2".

Deployment: models cannot deploy or otherwise enter the board within 8” of the Computer Terminal.

Scoring:
Whenever one of your models puts an enemy model into the Dead state, place a small token next to your model.  A model may carry any number of tokens.

+2 VP for having the conscious non-equipment model that is closest to the Computer Terminal at the end of the game.

+1 VP for each conscious model with at least one token on it at the end of the game.

Special: if a friendly model puts an enemy model with tokens on it into the Dead state, set that model aside with its tokens.  When scores are counted up, you get +X VP, where X is the number of tokens that were carried by all enemy models you put into the Dead state.

Computer Terminal: this device contains information vital to both sides, and emits an industrial-strength ODF (Optical Disruption Field) to protect it.  Models within the ODF benefit from it (-6 penalty to models shooting at them), no matter which side they’re on.  Models shooting at other models within the ODF do not suffer the -6 penalty.

To check if a model is in the ODF, centre a round template on the Computer Terminal.  If the model is fully within the template, then it benefits from the ODF.

The advanced technology and industrial power source of this ODF mean that no level of visor can negate its penalties, and that it cannot be deactivated by fire ammunition.

Example: PanO’s Fusilier Angus is killed by Yu Jing’s Oniwaban Aoshi.  Fusilier Angus had 2 tokens on him.  When Oniwaban Aoshi kills Angus, Oniwaban Aoshi gets one token.  Aoshi’s player sets aside Angus with the 2 tokens that were on him.

Assuming nothing else happened, VP totals are added up.  Aoshi’s player gets 1 VP (because Aoshi has at least one token on him), +2 VP (Angus was carrying two tokens when he was put into the Dead state), and +2 VP (Aoshi is closest to the Computer Terminal).  The Yu Jing player wins with 5 VP.

Happy New Year - and Updates!

Happy new year, everyone! I've just gotten back from my short vacation, and now I'm starting to work on a gentle revamp of various units for Pendant World. Inspired by the conversation I had with playtesters last time, I'm looking to streamline some units and provide a lot more in the way of reactive options. Stay tuned!

Battle Report - Boudicca, Scourge of Rome VS Manfred Rochdale

Image
Source:  https://grazdgfx.tumblr.com/post/171535938767 Yesterday, one of my playtesters and I met up to play the Black Telephone scenario (core 23). He has been waiting for the Once Forgotten to hit the table, as he's a huge fan of undead factions in other games. I decided to take up the Fair Ones this time, figuring that they would be more than curious to see what messages came through the phones from the other side - whatever the other side is. This time, we tested out adjusted point totals and played a 150 point game. By the end of it, we agreed that 200 point games might be a bit more interesting (more models, more options), but this game was a fun scrap over a few ringing phones.

The Devotee of Tezcatlipoca, the Smoking Mirror

The Devotee of Tezcatlipoca is another Ravenous Beyond cult model, but unlike the Disciple of Malphas, she is more than able to sneak around on her own and cause damage behind enemy lines. This article will go through what the Devotee is capable of doing now, along with a quick look at a previous version, and how she might benefit your faction in a game of Pendant World .
