INVESTIGATING THE PARIAH NEXUS

In Beyond the Veil games, your Crusade army can investigate the happenings of the Pariah Nexus. Keep an additional note of your army's Pariah Nexus Investigation points (IP) total (a tally in your Crusade goals, notes and additional information box on your Order of Battle is ideal for this). Your Investigation points total in this battlezone will show how much your army has discovered concerning what has happened in the Pariah Nexus, what is causing it and how your forces can adapt to its effects. Once your Crusade force has accumulated enough Investigation points, you can spend these points and be rewarded with unique bonuses.

ACCUMULATING INVESTIGATION POINTS

The discoveries of your army are measured with Investigation points. Each time your Crusade force wins a Beyond the Veil game, you gain 1 Investigation point. In addition, Investigation points are earned through various tasks outlined in this mission pack, such as completing specific requirements from Beyond the Veil Agendas (pg 12). Each time you gain an Investigation point, add it to your Investigation points total.

SPENDING INVESTIGATION POINTS

If you have accumulated enough Investigation points, you can spend them before or after a battle on Investigation rewards. To do so, select one Investigation reward that costs equal to or less than your total Investigation points. Once you have done so, all your Investigation points are lost - you must begin a new investigation instead. The Investigation rewards are as follows:

STUDY ARTEFACT | 1+ IP

When attempting to discover the full power of a Relic of the Nexus (pg. 15), add 1 to the roll for every investigation point spent on this reward.

MENTAL CONDITIONING | 2 IP

Select one Crusade card from your Order of Battle that has one or more Battle Scars. Select one of that unit’s Battle Scars and remove if from its Crusade card (remember that for each Battle Scar removed, that unit’s Crusade points will effectively increase by 1).

SUPPLY CACHE | 3 IP

You can use the Increase Supply Limit or Fresh Recruit Requisition without spending any Requisition Points.

LOCATE REDOUBT | 4 IP

Gain 1 Requisition point.

RELICS OF THE NEXUS | 7 IP

Select one Crusade card from your Order of Battle that is a CHARACTER unit. That unit gains 1 Crusade Relic from the Relic of the Nexus (pg. 15). As with any Battle Honor, make a note on the unit’s Crusade card and increase it’s Crusade points accordingly.

STRENGTH THROUGH ADVERSITY | 9 IP

Select one Crusade card from your Order of Battle. That unit gains 1 Battle Honor. As with any Battle Honor, make a note on the unit’s Crusade card and increase it’s Crusade points accordingly.
