You are not allowed to embark and disembark in the same turn. See the Transport rules, last sentence of the first paragraph.

Awesome report! I wish I had taken more pics during my games... Did you find it interfered with your ability to finish on time?

Because it's not legal.

It's neither really fun to play with nor against, imo. But that's almost all Tau have going for them atmo.

The problem with 1k cuts is that its kinda easy to screw up with it. It would be best if they went with cumulative tally but upped the req to 4 units killed for 1 pt.

Yeah I'll take balanced and boring over inovative but potentially unbalanced any day of the week - especially for a tournament.

Personnaly, I like that all the primary missions are more or less the same. It's one less parameter that needs to be payed close attention to. I just think the bonus points are a bit ridonckulous (especially Crucible of Champions - let's not reward Primaris Psyker spam, shall we?). I also wish the "What's yours is mine" mission made you deploy the objectives OUTSIDE your deployment zone rather than inside it, but I can live with it.

The secondaries need a bit of tweaking but overall I'm fine with them. Death by a thousand cuts needs to be fixed not to be such a huge gamble.*

Having the objectives pre-set avoids situations where one player is stuck with a really disadvantageous hand because his opponent starts with more objectives in his deployment zone.

*By that I mean you get stuck with really bad situations: Ok, I kill 3 units... do I try to kill 6 now or do I stop? If I stop, how badly will I suffer in the next round? If I go for 6 and fail, how likely am I to get full points for this objective in later turns?

Consistenly being the operative word. To me, it seems a bit of a stretc to think you will be able to do so against a skilled opponent. Also doesn't work against Monsters.
