fought using the rules found here and in the main rule book and
of course your Codex. You get a few weeks to play games,
familiarize yourself with how the army works, and build up your army to the next level. Then, you play 400-point
games under the Warhammer 40,000 5th edition rules for a few more weeks and further refine your army as you go.
After that, the games shift up another level to with an additional 400 points creating larger games. The last part of the
Escalation League includes a 2,000-point championship where participants in the League take the army that they have
painstakingly constructed over the last few months and prove just how much they’ve learned!

CAMPIGN RULES_____________________________________________
The following rules are used for the entirety of the campaign set during the Invasion of Noctum Sceana . These rules
override any conflicting text found in other codices.

Seasoned Warriors
Troops have an uncanny ability learning how to deal with
the planet of Noctum Sceana. As creatures, daemons, and
troops learn to cope with battlescapes of the planet their abilities
and reliability increases. Seasoned Warriors learn even from
defeat, but victory leads to sharp, alert, and fierce soldiers. To
represent this, the following will be used to show their
progression.

After the final turn of each game, each player may nominate a
unit(s) you believe performed well, this unit will receive a
medal, biomorph, additional gear or whatever may be used to
upgrade your troops. Choose an appropriate table for Unit type.
This unit must not have fled nor may it have been wiped out. It
is entirely possible for a unit to gain multiple veteran abilities
however it may not take duplicates of the same ability or skill.
You may re roll a duplicate or your troop choice already has the
ability reroll on the table.

No matter how much veterans learn they may meet an untimely end, this is represented by said unit
falling to half strength or being wiped out. Should this happen it will lose one of its abilities, should it be
entirely wiped then it loses two of the above abilities.

One Shot

Artillery Bombardment : The HQ may forgo its regular shooting and use the above
profile instead. Artillery Bombardment will always scatter 2D6” in the direction shown,
Should the “Hit” symbol be rolled then the Template shall scatter the direction of the
arrow marker, if the HQ has line of sight it may subtract the distance scattered by its
Balistic Skill.
 Show Pride In Your Colors!

An army participating in the Battle of________________ Campaign can be fielded

unpainted; however unpainted units will be worth double killpoints.

A Paint scheme does that have to be detailed as that every person’s skill level is
different. To be a painted unit means that it has had at least three colors applied to
it. A simple task but a great reward not only to the owner but to your opponent as
well!

Don’t worry if you’re not the best painter around your ability will grow as you paint
more models! The escalation league is meant to grow not only your gaming ability
and understanding but also the hobby aspect of the Miniature War Gaming Hobby

With Victory Comes the Spoils of War!
