Special Rules
Control
In order for a player to control a marker or terrain feature, they must have a unit within 3 inches of that
marker or terrain feature. If your opponent also has a unit within 3 inches of the same marker or terrain
feature, well call it contested, and neither player may control it.
If one unit carries a standard, it may control markers and terrain features even if an enemy unit is within
3 inches of that marker or terrain feature. If your opponent also has a unit with a standard within 3 inches
of the same marker or terrain feature it is likewise contested and neither player may control it.
For any unit to control a zone, a majority of its models must lie within the zone. The above conventions
for contesting and control are otherwise the same for zones.
A unit may never control more than one marker, terrain feature, zone, or building.
A battle standard bearer may count as a standard in a unit which otherwise does not have a standard.
Buildings are only controlled by the unit garrisoned inside, regardless of distance or banners.
Units which cost 100 points or less cannot control markers, terrain features, zones, or buildings.
Characters cannot control markers, terrain features, zones, or buildings.
Markers are treated as open ground.

Special Rules:
Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good [crossbow] at your side, kid.
After casting a spell, the caster must pass a leadership check if any double 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 were
rolled on the attempt. If the leadership is failed, the wizard must roll on the miscast table but may
alter the result up or down by 1 (to a min of 2 and max of 12). This special rule applies to spells
cast from items and other unconventional means.
Mos Eisley spaceport: You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
An extra building, Chalmuns Cantina, will be placed on each table by a tournament official. Treat
this as a 2 story building. A garrisoned unit gains the Immune to Psychology special rule from
Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes who play inside. For each turn a player controls the Cantina,
they score 100 victory points, up to a maximum of 300 points.

Before deployment, place a 20mm based marker in the middle of the table (the Princess). If, during
a players turn, they control the marker, it may move up to 8 inches in any direction they chose
just as a normal model would during the remaining moves phase. Any unit of the controlling
player within 3 inches of the marker gains the Stupidity special rule from her constant criticism of
their plan.
Players score 3 objective points if they control the marker at the end of the game.
If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
Each player nominates a single non-general character in their army. You may nominate the
General if that is your only character. Roll off for order.
