Per the wording of the booby trap, that 3 actually becomes a 4, and does 4MW. We add 1 to the result on the die before consulting the dot points for resolution.

Thank you for the insight!

TP2 you could have done vital objective on you objective marker in your deploy. Use reposition at the start, dash off of it, then just move back on it and boom! Free VP :D Rinse and repeat until maxing!

[@TabletopInquisitor]

Thanks for that catch, we are learning each game!

[@Randobar]

The Modells did not look very impressive. But they could not be seen in detail anyway. I really liked your background music and the calm tone of your conversation

[@TabletopInquisitor]

Appreciate the feedback.

TP2 Kasrkin plasma could not have killed the shotgun scout due to Covert Position, since it lasts until the start of the model's NEXT activation.
COVERT POSITION1 CP
Use this Tactical Ploy during a friendly SCOUT SQUAD operative's activation. Until the start of its next activation, while that operative has a Conceal order, it is always treated as having a Conceal order, regardless of any other rules (e.g. Vantage Point).

I'm new to KT and have a question around the recon dashes for both players. Did neither play need to count vertical movement when dashing up on to the vantage points? Both measured 3" horizontally only. It's hard to see the height of the terrain from the top-down view but I assume both pieces of terrain have height.
It shouldn't have been possible for either player to have dashed to their final positions, correct? Even with climbing equipment.
Edit: OK I just checked and looks like Crit Ops added the words "... as though the operative has FLY" to the recon dash, so the vertical moverment was ignored!

[@acollingray]

Recon Dash (during scouting) is performed as if the operative has FLY.

[@TabletopInquisitor]

This.

Where is the mat from. Very cool with the measurements built in

Great game! Something to note for the scout sergeant: he only gives an extra APL to a friendly scout that is VISIBLE to him. It may have been possible, but it doesn’t look like the sergeant could have seen the blade scout on the other side of the map due to all the terrain being in the way to give him the extra APL.

[@dawsengoodfellow9891]

Also, it would have cost you 1cp to fight twice with the scout hunter. In tp2

[@TabletopInquisitor]

Nice catch!

[@devildoughnut1788]

I like your set up of dice trays and point tracker- where’d you get them?

[@TabletopInquisitor]

Had a friend custom design them for 3D printing. Side note: have a new split design coming soon with display for Tac Ops!

Thanks!

[@c.sharpe6624]

first shot of tp2. Cant shoot that guy, he has perma conceal until his next activation.

[@TabletopInquisitor]

Good catch! I thought til end of turn, but it is next activation! Even better!
