DETAILS:

-         Armies do not have to be painted

-         Tournament lists are due by April 5, 2010. Please send them to Dan Rothrock at drr1776@gmail.com  

-         Sportsmanship will be based off of a set of four Yes or No questions. At the end of the tournament, you will receive 1 Battle point for each YES received. The person with the most YES answers will receive the Sportsmanship prize. In the case of a tie, the winner will be selected randomly among those that are tied. Any attempt to manipulate scoring (e.g., consistently score all your opponents low, score a contending opponent low when everyone else scored them high) will be investigated and could result in disqualification and/or adjustment of results.

-         This tournament will be run under the 7th Edition Warhammer Fantasy rule set

-         You must provide 3 army lists. One to the organizer, 1 for your opponents to review, and 1 for yourself. All lists must be printed and legible with all units, items, and costs noted and totaled. No handwritten copies.

-         Players may choose to exchange army lists before or after their game; roll off in case of a discrepancy

-         Tournament games will use the standard Pitched Battle scenario; There may be some extra special scenario points for each game

-         Terrain will be fixed on each table. All hills, impassable cliffs, buildings, and trees are considered to be infinitely high for LOS purposes (e.g., block line of sight to all models).

-         Weapons, armor options and upgrades chosen from the army list must be shown on the majority of the models in a unit. Please clarify all exceptions with your opponent before the game begins. 

 

RESTRICTIONS:

-         No characters that are: special, named or Albion
