EuroGt Tournament
a brief survey
Welcome to the Tower of Skull campagin PartII
It seems obvoius that the empires of Good and Evil would clash again on the Island of the former Highkings als called Rooyland.
In the middle of this continent is the former center of power where reality was folded and mighty magic was woven. But not only good can be done with these powerful magic lands...evil lurks there and it seem as if it will soon be unleashed against your people.
The Tower of Skulls(TOS) are a network of thousands of small temples and left villages full of eerie and strange music connected together via magical pathways.
Wohever controlls just one part of these magical lands can unleash it magical central core to spread havoc under his enemies alternatively you can use it to gain D4 ressources.
In Gameterms the TOS is a three ressource location. However controll one of the three parts so you can activate the lethal magic beam wich destroys one random basic ressource of every opponent and adds these ressources to your empire.
But if you control one of these parts for yourself...you can use it to intercept that spell....so possesion of the TOS is crucial..but be aware the TOS are no easy prey ..the Highking or Lex of Rooyland knew that younger races would come which would pervert their ideas of peace and wisdom and therfore they placed troops of famous marshalls there to defend the TOS..
WHFB
Basically WYSIWYG applies ..as a minimum the first rank has to be the indicated troops..but DON´T do this more than ONCE---painiting is nice and empires with fully painted armies will benefit...
Armycomposition

Your Empires willl get decent Magic Items that you can give your heroes..only exception to the ONE magic item per character rule are dispell scrolls.... but be cautious it might well be that these items are"one use only"

i turn 2 one banner of the defender comes to the rescue and in turn 3 yeah you got it ..third banner...at a tableedge chose by the defender...
whoever has possesion over the missioobjective wins...units in HTH can´t claim the objective fleeing units throw it away...
*Breakthrough; the patrolling units try desperatly to fend of the opponent..so the attacker has 3 Banners...
Borderpatrols (1 vs 1 banners on a smaller table one BR planned for completing; 60min)

Border Patrol has following restirction

no modell is allowed to cost mor than 125 pts..
9) No Army standard bearer
Tom Kings use the liche priest as hero;
tomb kings can have more than one chariot
Well, you can´t just walk out there and conquer. You need to forage, scout and be sure where your enemies are. therfore we transformed the use of intel a little bit. It is the currency of information . You get these infos just by sending out your scouts..
all battles are played on a 4x3 " battlefield

simpel objektive on the batlefield. Who has more US within 12 " wins.

this is a defender attacker szenario....means if you want to activate your gate you probably get hindered....but you can try to shut one of the opponents as well
Defender deploys first 12" arround the gate which is situated in the middle
then Attacker deploy 18" away and gets the first turn..yes tough and if the attacker manages to be in contact with the objektive for one turmn..Aktivation !
2) Poison the well
Basically the same but with the exception that the attacker deploy 24" away and you roll off for first round.
consequence: lose D4 banners of random armes due to poisioning....means OPS rolls and determines the banners who have to withdraw....(medical treatment ya know)
3) Kill the General
Your General (the CIC is on a inspection journey) perfect for your hired assasins to kill this scumbag...
