You ever feel like ya suck at this game, no matter how many games you play?
I currently have over 300 games under my belt and occasionally feel like I get a game in that I do well at but most the time, I'm just struggling on the back foot.
Josiah Cook once told me to chose three objectives that you plan to hold the whole game and look for ways to deny your opponent scoring their points.
I just watched a whole video on YouTube about this concept too.
The guy on YouTube said to focus on primary missions and do secondaries when they're convenient. 🤯
Most rounds of we hold two primary objectives we will get 40 points total, so if we can deny our opponent one round of points from their two objectives, we are way more likely to win and force our opponents into a position where they have to take risks to score or stay behind the rest of the game.
I played in a similar way into my Votann (newbie) friend the other day. Denied his movement the first two rounds with some obnoxious movement shenanigans on my part.
This is why jail lists are so powerful.
Infiltrate unit denying scouting keeps units in their deployment zone.
Move block or position in a way that makes charges damn near impossible or at least unlikely, to keep your opponent off the objective or away from the point far enough that consolidate can't happen.
Save those command points for an overwatch that will deny a secondary.
Tactical secondaries can be somewhat predictable based on whats left in the deck. So position in a way that gives you as much primary control as possible, then worry about secondaries.
One thing the video I watched pointed out is if you can deny your opponent primary or you can score a secondary weigh the point value of each.
So if you can walk a 2 OC unit into an objective and deny primary scoring for your opponent, which is typically 5 points, then scoring establish locus for 2 or 3 p points in the center is a bad choice, make sense?
This added a lot of clarity for me and hope it helps you too.
