Mission 1: Line in the Sand

For years the conflict on Larnach IV has grinded on with neither side able to gain an advantage. Your spies have uncovered details of a planned enemy offensive against your position. If your forces can withstand the enemy onslaught then a well-planned counterstrike could exploit the ensuing weakness in your opponents position and end the battle for Larnach IV. The battle line has been drawn and it is your duty to ensure that any enemy forces that cross the battle line do not live to solidify their gains.

Deployment
Split the table into halves as shown to the right. Each player then rolls a d6. Whichever player wins the die roll chooses whether to go first or second. The player that will take the first turn then deploys their forces anywhere within their table half that is more than 12 away from the centerline of the table. Once the first player has completed their deployment the second player then deploys their forces anywhere in their table half that is more than 12 away from the centerline of the table. Scout, Infiltrate, Outflank, and Deep Strike work as described in the Warhammer 40,000 Rulebook.

Mission 2: Dagger in the Dark

The extreme axial tilt of Larnach IV means that a single night can last for days. Throughout the war for Larnach IV soldiers have dug in and fortified their positions against the coming night. Your force has been selected by Strategic Command to make a daring night raid on a vitally important enemy outpost. Your mission is to secure the position and hold it until reinforcements arrive. The success of this mission may be the beginning of the end of the war for Larnach IV.
