The missions for Adepticon's 40K Tournament are online here (http://www.adepticon.org/wpfiles/2010/201040KChampPrimer.pdf).
Scenario 2's primary mission seems pretty odd...
"Primary (Seize Ground): Capture terrain elements, to claim a terrain element you must have a scoring unit completely within an uncontested terrain element. To contest a terrain element a player must have a scoring unit completely within the element. The player with the most terrain elements wins. "
This seems to swing this mission pretty heavily in favor of armies that, due to having strong troop units, take a ton of Troops. Having the only way to control AND contest a terrain piece be troop units seems to be a "gimmie" mission to Tervigon Tyranid armies.
