Hey guys!
We had a fantastic tournament in Sydney, Australia today. I think everyone had an excellent time, there was some very tough competition, and there was some decent variety (even if Scum was the most popular, there were variations between lists).
A few rules questions popped up:
1. On the map "To Your Stations", do you shoot from each turret one at a time, or are all targets selected first, and then each target takes 2 damage? The wording on the mission has them as two separate sentences.
2. Both players are on 39 points. Both players have Black Market, and both players' top cards are worth a point. Player A has initiative, and mills the card for a point, putting him to 40. Does the game instantly end?
Simultaneous Effects Resolution
1. All figures are chosen first and then each figure suffers 2 damage.
2. They are separate abilities (as opposed to both players gaining VP from the same mission rule), so the player with initiative perform their Black Market first. It it takes the player to 40VP or more, the game ends before the other player has chance to use their Black Market.
Perfect, we gave the correct ruling in the first, then gave the correct ruling in the hypothetical second.
