At the beginning of every scenario, each character receives two battle goal cards in secret and chooses one to keep, discarding the other.

Players should keep their battle goals secret from one another until the scenario is over.

If the scenario is successfully completed and the character meets the criteria of the chosen card , he or she will earn a number of checkmarks as specified on the bottom of the card.

Checkmarks are recorded on the player’s character sheet in the specified area of the notes section of their character sheet.

For every three checkmarks a character earns, he or she immediately gains an additional perk on their character sheet and applies its effects to their attack modifier deck.

Any checkmarks from a battle goal that are left over after achieving a perk are applied toward the next perk.

A character can achieve a total of six additional perks in this way.

If the scenario resulted in failure, the character receives nothing from his or her battle goal card, regardless of whether the goal was achieved.

Players can keep track of their battle goal progress using notes if necessary.
