Hex Campaign - Orktober Rules

Orktober 2013

For October

All battle will take place on board space ships / compounds

In close quarters style.

Battleground

One Objective is place in the middle before any terrain is placed.

This is worth 3 points and can be used to turn the lights on (to remove night fighting).

The only terrain on the battleground will be line of sight blocking walls.

These are placed by the players alternately.

After the terrain has been placed four other objectives are used – two worth 2 points each, and the other two are non-scoring decoy markers. You do not have to reveal to your opponent if the marker is a decoy.

All units (not just troops) in contact with an objective can determine its worth.

This is to be controlled by picking one of four business cards with the objective value written on it.

Objectives are only held if touched by a scoring unit. (Not just within 3”)

Objectives are contested by any unit but they also must be touching it.

Players roll for first turn after all objectives and terrain are placed.

Then each player may place one additional wall that can be opened freely by the placing player

Or by the opposing player destroying it. These walls have 1 HP, Armour 13.

Secondary Objectives: Slay the Warlord, First Blood. (No Line Breaker)

Mission Special Rules:

Always night unless the player controlling the middle objective makes it day
