storm front, sink the baneblade, search party, power struggle have been updated
Park in space (canisters mission where one random one is the primary objective and you don't know which one until the end) , and lance a lot (mission with the fortress walls on the big apoc table) have been eliminated from the mission pack
my thoughts on this change were:
- park in space was too random on who won
- lance a lot was just a mess for some armies and an auto-win for others (ie: daemons) so was too unbalanced.

Hammer and Ambull is updated - Ambulls are now tougher (so an actual threat)
Grot Mart is updated - Squigs are tougher (so an actual threat) - Jippy's been feeding them steroids since last year they were unable to protect his loot! As well Escalation has been removed from this mission in keeping with the "less escalation missions" request from last year.

I hope "The Bridge" won't be back. That one is in the same boat as lancealot in my books.
Looking forward to the mission pack!

A bridge too far (the other apoc table) mission has been removed due to balance issues. Truck stop has been updated - escalation and advanced reserves has been eliminated in keeping with the "less escalation missions" request from last year. As well, blowing up a truck will only destroy a canister on a 1... not automatically like last year... this will hopefully prevent the stormlord from wrecking the mission for everyone

Good call on fixing truck stop. Av10 open topped is not exactly the most durable vehicle....

Man, I really hope I can get my army ready. I know I can get the 3 colours but having it all here and assembled will be a challenge.
I really liked Lost Patrol and hope (assuming I sign up) I will play it. I prob wont know until after December though.

Lost patrol has been adjusted to ensure that you just can't teleport across the board and win it... the lost patrol is only allowed to do NORMAL movement.... and the lost patrol cannot be a flyer or a flying monstrous creature or unmanned vehicle.

my god Im suprised there is only 2 spot paid so far! I tough everyone will fight to death to get a spot! Comon guys lets show our interest to Shannon! I know its still in 2 months but its always nice for an organizer to see interest in his tournament. Maybe he will be more motivate to release mission pack with more inscription

I haven't signed up yet primarily due to making sure I know which army I'm bringing.
