Heya all and welcome back to the webway!
These past few days I have been trying to see the feasibility of making a particularly interesting tournament format that is a merging between the NOVA Open format (Which I am fond of their tiers of victory conditions) and also the Bay Area Open Format (The simultaneous Primary Objectives is something I am also fond of) along with some interesting things of my own devising. Comments and criticisms is much appreciated, and if anyone would like to playtest this ruleset for me and give me further information I would also appreciate it.
Without further ado here are the missions;
Mission 1 : Breaching The Stalemate
The killing fields of the battlefront are no place for the foolish
to venture into for attacks often sustain severe casualties as a matter of
course and it is a fool’s errand to enter into no man’s land. However, a breach must be made to break the
deadlock……
Primary Objective And Victory

1)
Purge the Alien – At the end of the battle, each player
receives 1 Victory Point for every enemy unit that has been completely destroyed.

Characters and Dedicated Trasports are individual units and award Victory
