Custom Secondaries for Club Champs

[Jack Shrapnel]

We can only have 10 total, so vote for the ones from this list which you feel are most fun/flavourful etc. There were a number of old club champs missions which were somewhat similar, so you might not see every one represented, but I got most of them. 

You can vote 10 times... most votes are in the tourney!


Battlefield supremacy 


Temple of Doom – Score 1 VP at the end of the battle round for each of the following:

- If your warlord is wholly within 6” of the centre of the battlefield

- If you have slain one or more enemy CHARACTER models

- If you control more table quarters than your opponent (highest number of models in a quarter controls it)

- If your warlord is alive at the end of the battle round


Unstable reactor – Score 3 VP at the end of the battle round if you have more models within 6” of the centre of the board than your opponent. (note NOT wholly within)


Subterranean Assault – Score 4 VP at the end of the battle round if you have more units in the enemy deployment zone than they have in yours.

Grot Mart – Score 3 VP at the end of the battle round if you capture an objective which was previously held by an enemy unit in the preceding turn.

No Mercy no Respite 


Daemon World – Score 1 VP at the end of the battle round for each of the following:

- Slay an enemy model with a psychic power

- Have an enemy fail a morale test

- Have at least one friendly unit successfully complete a charge

- Have a friendly unit suffer no wounds at the end of a phase that they were targeted in shooting or melee



Voidspan Point – Score 3 VP at the end of the battle round if you had one or more units complete a charge with a roll of 8 or more (after modifiers)


Zombie Apocalypse – Score 4 VP at the end of the battle round if during the fight phase you destroyed an enemy unit which had less models than your attacking unit at the beginning of the fight phase. The unit must be destroyed with your attacks only (not by a vehicle explosion for example)


End Game – Score 1 VP at the end of the battle round for each of the following:

- If you pass a Morale test for one or more units

- If you destroy one or more enemy units which was benefiting from cover

- If you destroy one or more enemy character units

- If you destroy one or more enemy VEHICLE or MONSTER units



Purge the enemy 


Vengence for Connor – Score 3 VP at the end of your turn if you completely destroyed one or more enemy units which were holding an objective at the start of your turn.


X-Factor – pierce the storm: Score 3 VP at the end of your turn if you have destroyed an enemy unit which was wholly within a terrain feature. 


Sink the Titan – Score 5 VP at the end of the battle round if you destroyed the enemy unit with the highest point cost which was on the board at the beginning of the battle round (do not count a unit which left the battlefield during the turn ie: aircraft).


Hammer and Ambull – Score 4 VP at the end of the battle round if you destroyed an enemy unit which entered the board from reinforcements that turn, OR if you destroyed an enemy unit with one of your own units which entered the board from reinforcements that turn.


Truck Stop – Score 3 VP at the end of the battle round if you destroyed an enemy VEHICLE or MONSTER unit which was within 3" of an objective at the beginning of the turn.


Shadow Operations 


Seize the Forge – Units on objectives with no enemy model within 3” may complete the <CONTROL TERMINAL> action.  For each unit on an objective completing this action score 1 VP at the end of your turn so long as no enemy is within 3” of the objective. This action may be completed by multiple units, however only one unit may perform this action on any objective per turn.


Tomb Raider – A unit on an objective with no enemy model within 3” may complete the <UNLOCK TEMPLE> action. Score 2 VP at the beginning of your next command phase if this unit is still on the objective, and no enemy units are within 3” of the unlocking unit. This action may be completed by multiple units, however only one unit may perform this action on any objective per turn. 


The Call of Cthulhu – A single unit which is wholly within 6” of the centre of the battlefield can complete the <OPEN THE PORTAL> action. They can only complete the action if there are no enemy units within 6” of the centre of the board. At the end of your turn score 3 VP if you complete this action. If this action is completed by a psyker unit, that unit may still cast powers, shoot and charge later in the turn. 


Warpcraft 


Echoes of Prospero – Score 1 VP at the end of the battle round for each of the following:

- Successfully cast one or more psychic powers

- Successfully deny one or more psychic powers

- Destroy one or more enemy psyker character / units

- Cause one or more mortal wounds to an enemy model


Black Box Recovery (Psychic Action - Warp Charge 4): One or more PSYKER units from your army can attempt to perform this psychic action in your Psychic phase. Each unit from your army that starts to perform this action must be in range of a different objective marker that has not been analyzed. When this action is completed that objective marker is said to have been analyzed.



Score 3 VP at the end of the game for each objective marker that has been analyzed by a unit from your army.

Question on the Shadow Operations. It says Unit, but not Infantry; are ANY units able to perform the actions? Or do they have to be Infantry as per the main rulebook?

[Jack Shrapnel]

These are all unit - not infantry.

[Typhus]

Are the restrictions against charging or shooting for these mission objectives in place of the normal restrictions on Actions, or just reminders?

Pursuant to Temple of Doom, how do you determine controls of a table quarter?

Which of these Action secondaries allow only a single unit to perform them in each turn (if any), and which of them allow any number of units to perform the Action (if any)?

i.e. Actions always say either "one or more units from your army can start to perform this action" or "one unit from your army can start to perform this action". I'm not sure which category each of these secondaries is supposed to fall into.

[raceygaming]

I really like this but I do have two cents to add ( or maybe a few cents)

Unstable reactor/ Grot Mart - Change wording to " at end of the turn" or "at the start of your Command phase". For both going second is WAY better for this mission. Being able to just move X+1 models to the middle, or losing an objective but retaking it before end of battle round. If you want to make them tough " start of Command" , if you want to make them more dynamic "end of turn".


Truck Stop - Change "On objective" to " within 3" just to clarify

Seize the Forge / Call of Cathultu - Just have these be actions period. The book does a good job of defining what you can and cant do after an action.

tomb raider - remove the last sentence, there is no other action you can just move block but standing within 3" DURING the action. If you want to stop them from doing it wipe the unit with shooting or fighting

Temple of Doom - If you have models in more quarters then your opponent. You don't really control quarters any more and lets you play the objective without having to focus on what your opponent does as much.

clarified... and the restrictions were just reminders, but I took them out following Jordan's post. 

[Jack Shrapnel]

just a reminder if you're attending the club champs this year, I really do want your feedback/vote on these secondaries. If you can take a minute to go through them it would be greatly appreciated.

I like this one - although I assume it's 1 VP per turn if you destroy, for instance, "one or more" CHARACTER models, as opposed to 1 VP per Character per turn.

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Cool. I assume this is not intended to be wholly within?

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Subterranean Assault – Score 4 VP at the end of the battle round if you have more units in the enemy deployment zone than they have in yours.

Any thoughts to making this 2 VP in the case of an exact tie?

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Daemon World – Score 1 VP at the end of the battle round for each of the following:
- Slay a model with a psychic power
- Have an enemy fail a morale test
- Have a unit successfully complete a charge
- Have a unit suffer no wounds when targeted in shooting or melee

Can I score this if I destroy a friendly model with a psychic power? (At least two lists at this event are running psychic powers which can affect allies) I assume the last two clauses are only intended to be scored if a friendly unit charges, or suffers no damage.

Is that last clause scored on a unit basis, or a phase basis? i.e. I target a unit of Tactical Marines with a single poxwalker, and it misses with both of its attacks. In that same fight phase, I target that same unit of Tactical Marines with my Blightlord Terminators, and manage to kill three (let's say). Would my opponent score 1 VP because the poxwalker failed to inflict any damage, or would they not get to score because they suffered wounds "in melee"?

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Grot Mart – Score 3 VP at the end of the battle round if you capture an objective which was previously held by an enemy unit in the preceding turn.

This one should probably be filed under Battlefield Supremacy - it's basically the same as the Space Marines secondary objective "Shock Tactics", which is considered to be Battlefield Supremacy. Otherwise, they get to double-dip, and score 6 VP every time they push you off an objective.

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Voidspan Point – Score 3 VP at the end of the battle round if you had a unit complete a charge and the charge roll was over 7.

Just to be clear - a charge roll of 8 or more, yes? Do you get to count modifiers? (i.e. Evil Sunz, or an Instrument of Chaos)

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Zombie Apocalypse – Score 4 VP at the end of the battle round if during the fight phase you destroyed an enemy unit which had less models than you at the beginning of the fight phase.

Do we get to count for instance vehicle explosions (suppose a Sentinel (in a unit of 3) blew up and killed the last remaining model in a unit of grots) or should we only count attacks?

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

End Game – Score 1 VP at the end of the battle round for each of the following:

- If you pass a Morale test for a unit
- If you destroy an enemy unit which was benefiting from cover
- If you destroy an enemy character unit
- If you destroy an enemy VEHICLE or MONSTER unit

I like this one - but again, just to be clear, I assume you can only score 1 VP for each subcategory. i.e. "one or more of your units passes a Morale test".

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Vengence for Connor – Score 3 VP at the end of your turn if you completely destroyed an enemy unit which was holding an objective at the start of your turn.

This one feels like it might be a little too easy to score. Possibly it could be changed to 2 VP? Fewer VP on offer, but very reliable (a la Deploy Scramblers).

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

X-Factor – pierce the storm: Score 3 VP at the end of your turn if you have destroyed an enemy unit which was benefiting from cover.

Might I suggest changing this to "wholly on or within a terrain piece"? As written, you score 3 VP whenever you destroy a Raven Guard unit in the Shooting Phase.

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Sink the Titan – Score 5 VP at the end of the battle round if you destroyed the enemy unit with the highest point cost which was on the board at the beginning of the turn.

Should that be at the beginning of "the battle round", or at the beginning of "your turn"?

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Hammer and Ambull – Score 4 VP at the end of the battle round if you destroyed an enemy unit which entered the board from reinforcements, OR if you destroyed an enemy unit with one of your own units which entered the board from reinforcements.

Does the unit have to have entered the battlefield that turn, or just at all?

i.e. if my unit of Blightlord Terminators enters the battle via Teleport Strike in battle round 2, does every unit that the Terminators destroy from them on count for this secondary objective?

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Truck Stop – Score 3 VP at the end of the battle round if you destroyed an enemy VEHICLE or MONSTER unit which was within 3" of an objective at the beginning of the turn.

I like this one.

Seize the Forge – Units on objectives with no enemy model within 3” may complete the <CONTROL TERMINAL> action.  For each unit on an objective completing this action score 1 VP at the beginning of your next command phase so long as no enemy is within 3” of the objective. This action may be completed by multiple units, however only one unit may perform this action on any objective per turn.

I would suggest removing the part about keeping enemy units outside of 3" for the action to complete - in every other case, the presence of enemies only prevents you from starting an action, not from completing it.

Also, this objective feels very hard to score points on. Might I suggest making the scoring condition be "at the beginning of your next Command Phase, or at the end of the battle"? Gives players a chance to score it during the fifth battle round.

Am I correct in my interpretation that you can only score 1 VP per objective, and you have to take an action each time? If so, this feels like a much worse Raise the Banners High.

This action may be completed by multiple units, however only one unit may perform this action on any objective per turn.

Again, I would suggest making it so that you can complete the action (but not start it) if there are enemy units within 3". Also, to make it so that the objective scores at the start of your next Command Phase, and at the end of the battle.

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

The Call of Cthulhu – A single unit which is wholly within 6” of the centre of the battlefield can complete the <OPEN THE PORTAL> action. They can only complete the action if there are no enemy units within 6” of the centre of the board. At the end of your turn score 3 VP if you complete this action.

This one is basically the same as the Investigate Sites secondary from the core rulebook. Might I suggest a twist? Maybe "score 5 VP instead if that unit is your WARLORD" or "score 5 VP instead if that unit is a PSYKER"?

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Echoes of Prospero – Score 1 VP at the end of the battle round for each of the following:

- Successfully cast a psychic power
- Successfully deny a psychic power
- Destroy an enemy psyker character / unit
- Cause a mortal wound to an enemy model

As before, I assume this is 1 VP for manifesting "one or more" psychic powers in a battle round, etc. If so, I quite like it.

Jan 25, 2021 11:48:52 GMT -5 Jack Shrapnel said:

Dangerous Intelligence – Score 1 VP at the end of your turn for each psyker unit that completes the following psychic action <BLACK BOX RECOVERY – Warp charge 4> To complete the action, the psyker must be within 3” of an objective. This action may be completed by multiple units, however only one unit may perform this action on any objective per turn.

Although I like this one in theory, it feels like it doesn't score enough VP. In order to maximize this secondary you have to have at least three psykers on three different objectives, and each of these units has to give up all of their psychic powers for the entirety of the game. Might I suggest changing it to the following:

Black Box Recovery (Psychic Action - Warp Charge 4): One or more PSYKER units from your army can attempt to perform this psychic action in your Psychic phase. Each unit from your army that starts to perform this action must be in range of a different objective marker that has not been analyzed. When this action is completed that objective marker is said to have been analyzed.

Score 3 VP at the end of the game for each objective marker that has been analyzed by a unit from your army.

Do you get 3 VP every time you destroy a unit that's holding an objective or 3 VP for destroying one or more units that were holding objectives?

Do you have to kill every unit off the objective to score the points, or just a single unit?

[Jack Shrapnel]

one or more... will adjust it now - thanks!
