Standard events will use a 120-minute round timer with Mission Critical* starting at the 90-minute mark. To create a variable game length, we will roll 5 Attack Dice, and add one minute to the event round for each critical(B) and strike(A) result.

If a game has not concluded when the time for an event round runs out, the players finish the current Turn and calculate their scores. 

*Mission Critical rules can be found on page 4 of the Premier Showdown rules packet

Strike Team Selection

• Players submit a Premier List of four separate squads and one Mission Set that they will use to build their strike team at the start of each game.
  • During a premier Showdown event, players must choose each of their squads to be included in their strike team during at least one round of the event.
    • When a player is assigned a bye round, they choose two squads from their premier list and those squads count as having been played during that round.
• Each squad must meet the normal building restrictions detailed in the Shatterpoint Core Rules book. 
• Additionally, when building their Premier Lists, players may not include a Unit that shares the same Unique Name or Unit Name with another Unit already in their Premier List. They must apply all special rules applicable to building a strike team across all four of their squads.
• At the start of each event round, before determining the first player, each player builds a strike team by selecting two of the squads they have brought to the event, along with their chosen Mission Set. 
  • Players build their Order Decks in secret and then simultaneously reveal their entire Order Deck to their Opponent.
