<h1>Steamroller - Intro</h1>
<h3>What is Steamroller</h3>
Steamroller is an official document updated annually and it does two things (1) It is the official rules for how to organise a tournament - how long games run, how to set out terrain, how to do tiebreakers, etcetera. As a player, you can ignore a lot of these sections. (2) It is a set of scenarios. These are considered superior to the scenarios in the core rulebook, and most players will always play Steamroller.
The key differences between a Steamroller scenario and a core rulebook scenario are:

<ul><li> Each player has two army lists, and they pick which one to play after seeing their opponent's two lists.</li>
<li> There are three ways to win: Assassination, Scenario, and Clock.</li>
<li> Scenarios contains a mixture of flags, objectives, circular zones, and rectangular zones in different layouts. These are used to earn "Control Points (CP)". Different model types have to be used to control different types of scenario elements. </li>
<li> If a player scores 5 CP more than their opponent, they win the game on Scenario. Neither player can score any CP until the second player's second turn.</li>
<li> Players use a "deathclock". You can take as long as you like for each of your turns, but each player only has 60 minutes to play their entire game. Your clock is paused during your opponent's turn. If your opponent's clock reaches zero, you win the game on Clock.</li>
<li> The game only lasts 7 rounds. If both players finish 7 turns without winning or running out of clock, there is a series of tie-breakers to determine the winner.</li></ul>

<h3>How to Win a Steamroller</h3>
This is covered further in <a href="/index.php?title=Lesson_6:_Steamroller" title="Lesson 6: Steamroller">Lesson 6: Steamroller</a> of the Intermediate Training section.
 

<h1>Steamroller 2021 - Quick Reference</h1>
This is a summary only. Refer to the actual Steamroller document if in doubt.

<h3>Game Setup</h3>
<ol><li> Set up the terrain and scenario. (In a real tournament, the Event Organiser will do this. You shouldn't move terrain yourself at a tournament).</li>
<li> View each others lists, secretly choose one of your own, and then simultaneously reveal your choice.</li>
<li> Choose what objective you'll use.</li>
<li> Roll to determine player 1 vs 2 and choose sides.</li>
<li> Start the clock.</li>
<li> Only after the clock starts can you declare any "before the game begins" abilities such as Grymkin <a href="/index.php?title=Arcana" title="Arcana">Arcana</a>, placing terrain that you gain from a theme benefit, etcetera</li>
<li> Start deploying models.</li></ol>
<h3>Scoring Scenario Elements</h3>
You score a scenario point if you Control the scenario element and no enemy model Contests the scenario element. You can also earn a point by destroying the enemy objective.
Controlling scenarios

<ul><li> Circle Zones can be controlled by units and/or casters that are within the circle.</li></ul>
<dl><dd> Units must have all surviving members within the same circle, and they need to be in formation.</dd></dl>
<ul><li> Rectangle Zones can be controlled by warjacks, warbeasts, monstrosities, horrors, battle engines, and/or casters that are within the rectangle.</li></ul>
<ul><li> Flags can be controlled by solos and/or casters that are B2B with the flag.</li></ul>
Contesting scenarios
Scenario elements can be contested by almost any model.

<ul><li> To contest a Circle or a Rectangle, you need to be within it.</li>
<li> To contest a Flag, you need to be within 4" of the flag.</li>
<li> The following models cannot contest:
<ul><li> Inert warjacks and wild warbeasts (ie their controlling warcaster/warlock died)</li>
<li> Models out of formation (units only)</li>
<li> Casters</li></ul></li></ul>
Warcaster Units and Warlock Units
These change the contest/control rules slightly.

<ul><li> The caster cannot contest scenario elements, but the other troopers can.</li>
<li> To control a circle or rectangle, only the caster needs to be within the zone, and the other members need to be in formation.</li>
<li> To control a flag, you need the caster in B2B with the flag and the other members within 4" of the flag.</li></ul>
Scoring & Winning by Scenario

<ul><li> If you destroy an enemy objective, you immediately gain 1 point.</li>
<li> Otherwise, scoring is done at the end of each player's turn. Both players can score on either player's turn.</li>
<li> You win on scenario if you get a 5 point lead to your opponent. 5v1 is not a winning score, but 6v1 or 7v2 is.</li></ul>
<h3>2021 Terrain</h3>
Starting with 2021, new types of "official terrain types" were introduced via the Steamroller document.

<table class="wikitable">
<tr>
<th>Crater
</th>
<td> Restricted terrain
</td>
<td>Same rules as <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Trench" title="Trench">Trench</a> terrain, except it is also <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Rough_terrain" title="Rough terrain">rough terrain</a>, cannot be placed in contact with other Craters.
</td>
<td> Craters are irregularly shaped, often circular, and should not be larger than 5" in diameter.
</td></tr>
<tr>
<th>Open Grave
</th>
<td> Unrestricted
</td>
<td>Same rules as <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Trench" title="Trench">Trench</a> terrain, except smaller. They are 2" x 3" rectangles and can be placed within 1" of each other.
</td>
<td>Open Graves should be placed in clusters, and each cluster of 2-4 graves is considered a single terrain piece (when working out how much total terrain is on the table)
</td></tr>
<tr>
<th> Quicksand
</th>
<td> Restricted terrain
</td>
<td>Quicksand is a <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Hazard" title="Hazard">hazard</a> and <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Rough_terrain" title="Rough terrain">rough terrain</a>. The hazard is: models lose and cannot gain <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Pathfinder" title="Pathfinder">Pathfinder</a> while within Quicksand, and models that become knocked down while within Quicksand suffer 1 damage point.
</td>
<td>Quicksand is irregularly shaped, often circular, and should not be larger than 5" in diameter.

<th>Squall
</th>
<td> Unrestricted
</td>
<td>Squall is a <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Cloud" title="Cloud">cloud</a> effect and can be either a 3", 4", or 5" AOE template. When a model that is completely within a Squall makes a ranged attack or is targeted by a ranged attack, that attack suffers -3 RNG.
</td>
<td>
</td></tr>
<tr>
<th>Tall Grass
</th>
<td> Unrestricted
</td>
<td>Tall grass is <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Rough_terrain" title="Rough terrain">rough terrain</a>. It provides <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Concealment" title="Concealment">concealment</a> to small- and medium-based models completely within it.
</td>
<td>Tall grass should be about the same size as most forests.
</td></tr>
<tr>
<th>Windswept
</th>
<td> Restricted terrain
</td>
<td>Windswept is a <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Hazard" title="Hazard">hazard</a> that can be added to any difficult terrain (forests, rough terrain, shallow water, and rubble). The hazard is: Models with Flight move at half rate while within Windswept terrain.
</td>

<h3>2021 Objectives</h3>

Some scenarios use objectives, one per player. Before the game starts, the player chooses which type of objective their one is going to be. All objectives share a bunch of "boiler plate" rules, but are differentiated with a unique rule.
Shared rules

<ul><li> DEF 5, ARM 18, 15 hitpoints</li>
<li> <a class="image" href="File_Construct_symbol.html"><img alt="Construct symbol.jpg" height="24" src="/images/thumb/9/98/Construct_symbol.jpg/24px-Construct_symbol.jpg" srcset="/images/thumb/9/98/Construct_symbol.jpg/36px-Construct_symbol.jpg 1.5x, /images/thumb/9/98/Construct_symbol.jpg/48px-Construct_symbol.jpg 2x" width="24"/></a> <a href="/index.php?title=Category:Construct" title="Category:Construct">Construct</a></li>
<li> <a href="/index.php?title=Category:Immobile" title="Category:Immobile">Immobile</a> - This model has no Normal Movement or Combat Action, cannot become <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Knocked_down" title="Knocked down">knocked down</a> or be moved, and is automatically hit by melee attacks.</li>
<li> Objective
<ul><li> This model is a friendly Faction models to the player who owns it.</li>
<li> This model cannot be placed, cannot channel spells, and cannot be chosen as a Prey target.</li>
<li> This model cannot be targeted or damaged until the second player’s second turn.</li>
<li> This model cannot engage or be engaged.</li>
<li> Models never gain a back strike bonus against this model. (<a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Backstab" title="Backstab">Backstabs</a> are ok though)</li>
<li> Friendly models can ignore this model when determining LOS and can advance through this model if they have enough movement to move completely past it.</li></ul></li></ul>
Unique rule
Each objective has a unique ability. This ability boils down to "At either Maintenance or Control Phase, choose a friendly model within 4" to gain [a buff]."

Tip ! 
About 75% of these clarifications are still relevant in today's version of Steamroller, because it doesn't change that much from year to year. However, I'm too lazy to sort them into relevant vs not relevant.

</td></tr></table>
<h3>Steamroller 2017</h3>
Terrain

<ul><li> Terrain that normally randomly expire (Dense Fog & Burning Earth) does not expire as per the Steamroller rules.
<ul><li> It doesn't randomly expire, regardless whether it was part of the original terrain setup or put into play by a Theme bonus (such as <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Dark_Host" title="Dark Host">Dark Host</a>). (<a class="external text" href="https://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?272048-Dark-Host-Dense-Fog-should-i-stay-or-should-i-go-now&p=3851752&viewfull=1#post3851752" rel="nofollow">Infernal Ruling</a>)</li></ul></li>
<li> The clouds can, however, be forced to expire by spells/effects that make <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Cloud" title="Cloud">clouds</a> disappear. </li>
<li> If a "terrain cloud" is dispelled, the entire terrain piece is removed from the table. To reiterate: if you have a Forest which is also Burning Earth, it counts as a cloud. If that cloud is dispelled, the entire Forest is taken off the table. (<a class="external text" href="https://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?272034-SR2017-Burning-Earth-and-Wind-Blast-Gale-Winds-etc&p=3851635&viewfull=1#post3851635" rel="nofollow">Infernal Ruling</a>)</li></ul>
Scoring

<ul><li> Scoring is done very very last, even after stuff that happens "at the end of the player's turn" (such as triggering <a class="mw-redirect" href="/index.php?title=Last_Stand" title="Last Stand">Last Stand</a>). (<a class="external text" href="https://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?276903-Last-Stand-Scenario-Victory&p=3863569&viewfull=1#post3863569" rel="nofollow">Judge Ruling</a>)</li>
<li> Units that contain non-warrior models (such as the Legion <a href="/index.php?title=Spawning_Vessel" title="Spawning Vessel">Spawning Vessel</a>) are not eligible to score circular zones. (<a class="external text" href="https://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?272030-SR2017-quot-Warrior-Unit-quot-controlling-a-circular-zone&p=3851950&viewfull=1#post3851950" rel="nofollow">Infernal Ruling</a>)</li>
<li> Any kind of solo is eligible to control flags, even if it is Immobile and/or Created (like the <a href="/index.php?title=Stormwall" title="Stormwall">Stormwall</a>'s pods).</li></ul>
<h3>Steamroller 2016</h3>
<ul><li> You do not need to spend all of your Warjack points, but cannot play an army more than 4 points lower than the point level at which you are playing. <a class="external text" href="http://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?252778-MK3-Warjack-Points&p=3573080&viewfull=1#post3573080" rel="nofollow">Ref: niceas, 2016-06-17.</a></li>
<li> Terrain may be placed in such a manner as to block line of sight to a zone or flag from a deployment zone. <a class="external text" href="http://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?254030-SR-2016-objective-further-than-3-quot-from-forest-edge&p=3576952&viewfull=1#post3576952" rel="nofollow">Ref: niceas, 2016-06-20.</a></li>
<li> Ghetorix: The new model is tournament legal.
