Q: There have been several clarifications regarding the General Tournament Scenario setup procedure. Can we get a list of the setup sequence for the GT similar to the Sequence of Play chart?
Sure.
GT Pre-Game Setup List
Highest strategy rating acts first during setup.
1. Choose board sides.
2. Place objectives.
3. Deploy fortifications.
4. Decide when spacecraft arrive. Plot targets (secretly). Formations with an option to deploy via planetfall must declare at this point whether they will use planetfall.
5. Place garrisons, alternating players. Formations with an option to deploy as a garrison declare at this point. Once a player states they have no further garrisons to deploy, they may not deploy any more garrisons, i.e. no "passing" on placement. Garrisons are declared to be on Overwatch as they are deployed.
6. Declare which undeployed formations will remain in Reserves, alternating players. Any reserves with deployment options must choose the method of deployment at this point. For example, Eldar reserves must decide whether they will Teleport or use a Wraithgate.
7. Set up remaining formations on the table in the deployment zone, alternating players.
From this, I would suggest that when Space craft are declared, their contents are also defined.
Then, Garrisons are declared alternatively
Finally other reserves (teleporters, webway etc) are declared alternatively
