MISSIONS
All Primary and Secondary Missions will be from the 2026-2027 Chapter Approved Mission Deck.
It is highly recommended that all players use and link up their games via the Warhammer 40k App 'war journal' feature. There is no subscription needed to use this and it's very user friendly, making game setup and admin much easier.
If this is not an option then players are required to have all recommended terrain layouts for their army's disposition matchups with them on the day, this is a free pdf download from Games Workshop.
Players will be required to setup the battlefield with their opponent before each game once they have received their disposition matchups. We ask players to knuckle down and do this as quickly as possible, working together to allow for maximum gameplay time.
Round 1:
Table Layout (A) - Mission as per opponent disposition matchup.
Round 2:
Table Layout (B) - Mission as per opponent disposition matchup.
Round 3:
Table Layout (C) - Mission as per opponent disposition matchup.

There is a small prize pool to keep things interesting, but the focus of the event is to have an enjoyable day of gaming with new people.
New players are welcome, but please be as familiar with the rules as you can. We don't expect you to be an expert.
Experienced players welcome, remember you were once a new player, please try and make their days an enjoyable one.
Rules questions always come up. We encourage players to resolve them, but if you need the TO will make a ruling (right or wrong!), in order to get the game going again as fast as possible.
