If completed, until the end of your opponent’s next turn, that unit is said to have Set Overwatch. The action is completed at the end of your turn. Set OverwatchOne or more units from your army can start to perform this action at the end of the Move Units step of your Movement phase. When placing these terrain pieces on the game board, the Wall sections line up with the lines between the Zones on the board and any Pillars line up with the smaller squares in the corner of each Zone, as shown below. We also recommend painting or writing the codes for each wall piece onto the underside of that piece - this will allow you to identify them quickly when setting up your game. You can find a key denoting the code for each piece here. Each piece of terrain on the mission map will be coded, allowing you to quickly identify which piece it corresponds to, and where that piece should be positioned on the game boards. If you are playing one of the Boarding Action missions presented on this page, the mission map will also show you where to set up the terrain features, along with the positions of each Hatchway. This terrain is highly modular and can be clipped together in a large number of different configurations. Set UpYou will no doubt have noticed by now that Boarding Action battles use unique terrain to lay out the claustrophobic corridors of the spacecraft where your fights will take place. Victory will come to those who best adapt to their environment and achieve their objectives, and can sometimes even be seized despite the loss of an entire boarding force! The missions featured in this book are also designed to be balanced and offer a fair challenge to both sides. As such, even veteran Warhammer 40,000 players will find an array of new options and challenges to truly sink their teeth into. Over the coming books in the series this will be expanded upon with Faction-specific content and rules.
Your forces will not have access to the Warlord Traits, Relics and Stratagems featured in your Codex, but can instead utilise a new range of bespoke options specifically tailored to this deadly form of combat. Boarding Action armies will also look different to what you might be used to. While many Warhammer 40,000 battles feature large armies clashing on the field of battle, Boarding Action missions allow you to play out those crucial assaults that can turn the tide of the greater conflict.
