After looking at the missions in several of the supplements I decided to just use the ones in the basic rule books (SW:A and 8th edition BRB).
The Shadow War missions will consist of two Shadow war games using missions that are either rolled randomly or chosen by both players.
The full Warhammer 40K games will follow the progression in the table below.
| Mission | Crucible of War Mission (8th) | Base Points | Detachment(s) |
| 1 | Patrol | 500 | Patrol |
| 2 | Ambush | 1000 | Patrol + (Vanguard or Outrider) |
| 3 | Rescue | 1250 | Any |
| 4 | Sabotage | 1850 | Any |
| 5 | Blitz | 2000 | Any |
| 6 | Meat Grinder | 2500 | Any |
- Each successive mission builds off the previous one so you must keep the units that you used in the previous mission, they may be arranged into different detachments though.
- Shadow War models may be used in the 40K units but they represent different soldiers.
