Impact Warning




After a brief proximity alarm the observation platform's computer reported an impact on the planet surface. The Asteroid's trajectory shows that it came from the system's asteroid belt but not from a part known to contain Ork Roks. Perhaps the Orks are more widespread than scouts reported.

The Impact site is on the far eastern fringe of the continent. The impact has thrown up a dust cloud so it's impossible to know from this point of view if it was related to xeno activity or just an ordinary asteroid strike.

The Orks saw it, that much is certain. It looks like a WAAGGH! has set out from their HQ in the direction of the asteroid.

Special Mission: Investigate the Asteroid Strike.

Start Date: 3/1/2008
End Date: 6/1/2008
This mission may be attempted any number of times

Assemble a 1250 point force using your current FOC.

Mission: Hidden. Beacons can be used to uncover mission objectives as follows:

First Beacon: Secondary
Second Beacon: Primary
Third Beacon: Secret Objective available only if you have 3 Beacons.

(just email me if you might be interested in attempting the mission. I'll tell you the objectives according to your # of beacons)

You must have an Aerodrome to use Deep Strike in this mission
You must have an Aerodrome to use Infiltrators in this mission

Outcomes:

Any victory earns 3 CP plus hidden perks. Crushing or Slaughter earns extra perks, also hidden.
Any loss: Hidden

After each time a player loses this mission the campaign master rolls a d3. If the number rolled is less than the total number of times the mission has been attempted the Orks from the fort have reached the impact site! The Orks gain d6 WAAGGH! points if that happens. If nobody attempts the mission then the Orks gain d6 WAAAGGH! points when the mission expires.

Campaign Notes:
The Impact site is a waste tile.
