    I might miss something when I read this. So pls help me out ^/\^.
    We roll WIP for who get to keep initiative or deployment right. And does that mean player who won got to decide first either he got to keep initiative or deployment. Or is it always player who get to keep initiative choose first (even he lose WIP) then pick who deployment later

    Is it confusing?

    Thank you

    You can think of it this way.

    If you win the WIP roll, you get to choose:
    • either to decide about the initiative of the game (whether you go first or you go second, going second is important in some missions to be able to "mop up"; this is called 'keeping initiative'.
    • or to decide who deploys first and where - that is you get to tell the opponent to deploy his models first and you get to pick your side of the table; this is called 'keeping deployment'.
    If you've lost the WIP roll, you have to wait to see which of the above your opponent chose and then you get the other of the two.

    Yes, if you win, you need to decide whether you "keep initiative" or "keep deployment", which one of those you get to decide about basically.

    That ist how we play it. The winner has to decide first. The looser reacts by choosing second.
