Mission Six - AINT THAT THE TRUTH!

MISSION

Destroy designated enemy units while trying to secure objectives.

OBJECTIVE

Kill Points:Each player looks at opponent's list and chooses five (5) units to which he assigns a Kill Point. Only the units youropponent has chosen score kill points if destroyed. The rest of your army is worth no kill points.

Objectives:Five Objectives placed - one in centre of board, the other four 12" in from long board edge, 6" from short board edge.

To "claim" an objective you must have a scoring unit within 3". If you have no scoring unit within 3 then it is

impossible to claim.

However each scoring unit counts as two points, each non-scoring unit counts as one point. To "claim" the objectiveyou must also have the highest number of points within 3".

e.g. Player A has one scoring, one non-scoring and Player B has three non-scoring, both players score 3 points andno-one gets the objective. Then if Player B destroys A's non-scoring unit he is ahead 3-2 (but can't claim objectivebecause he has no scoring units in his total).Scoring:This gives a total of 10 Victory Points available in the game - 5 Kill Points and 5 objectives.
