They are Slay The Warlord, First Strike, Fully Painted 3 Color and LineBreaker! That should be much more clear on the website, thanks! What is First Strike? First Strike is the exact same as First Blood except both armies are capable of scoring it. If you completely kill a unit on your Turn 1, you get a First Strike point, regardless if you go first or second. However, unlike First Blood, it can only be scored in the first game turn and cannot be scored if you fail to kill something in your Turn 1. Both players can score it if they both kill something in their Turn 1's. It is a little bit more balanced form of First Blood. |

It's like first blood but it's available to both players and only applies on turn one.

Hello guys - friendly reminder here (will likely send out an email too, as there are some people who are not on the forum): 1) Mission Scoring is different this tournament than in the past - you can see the spread of Kill Points, Objective Holding and Tertiary Points Here: squareup.com/store/dice-dojo-warhammer-40k-tournaments2) There are no restrictions on Detachments or Formations, however only Unit Type: Infantry can score Objectives (Regardless of their formation) 3) There are no LoW's / GC's / SH's and No Unique (Named) Characters 4) You WILL still roll for Psychic and Warlord at the beginning of the Tournament - however you will get to roll twice for Warlord Trait and choose which one you want (better than a re-roll) 5) Best Painted Army will receive 2 extra points at the end 6) Modified Skyfire is in effect IE if you remain stationary, you hit Flyers on a 5+ instead of a 6+ 7) There will still be some minor surprises in each mission - one or two simple changes such as harnessing warp charges, characters being worth more points, etc 8) Only 1 IC maximum per unit. I think this is a cool rule to avoid deathstars. This is pretty much it. The missions are all essentially the same, it's just the points are weighted differently per mission. The new scoring is supposed to make it more fair and less matchup dependent (so someone playing an opponent with two blob units isn't handicapped to scoring no kill points, etc) |

Oh yeah, you also forgot to include that Doug "Fun Commissar" will be there, and everyone needs to have their dice certified by the Nevada Gaming Control Board.
