RULES FOR WARMACHINE / HORDES STEAMROLLER TOURNAMENT

http://privateerpress.com/files/Steamroller_2010_v2%283%29.pdf

Rule Books:
The Warmachine Prime MkII and Hordes Primal MkII Rules will be used.

The following is a list of legal army choices:

Cygnar
The Protectorate of Menoth
Khador
Cryx
Retribution of Scyrah
Mercenaries

Trollbloods
Circle Orboros
Skorne
Legion of Everblight
Minions


MODELS AND POINTS:

Each player must bring an army consisting of 35 points or fewer.  Each player is allowed to use one of the two 35 point lists they've chosen in each game they play.


HOW THE TOURNAMENT WORKS:

• Competitors will participate in a number of games over the course of the day based on attendance (probably 4). In each game, you will play a scenario and record the outcome of the battle on your Tournament Record Sheet. Each round you will play a different opponent.  Each round will last 80 minutes.  Each player turn will last a maximum of 10 minutes.

• In the first round, players will be matched up randomly. After the first round, players will be
matched up according to current rankings in the tournament (e.g., the player in first place will
play the player in second place and so on). We will try our best not to pair players that come to the event together in the first round.  We will also try not to pair the same faction against itself if at all possible. If a player receives a BYE they will be awarded 1 TP and 0 CP's in accordance with the rules.

• You will not play the same person twice.

• The pairings for each round will be announced as soon as they are determined. Please be sure to
arrive at your table ready to play right away. We ask that each player be conscious of the
time and that you play at a regular and steady pace to complete the game. Anyone found slow
playing or deliberately stalling for any reason will be penalized.

• Each game will be played on a 4' x 4' board.

• Players will receive Tournament Record Sheets at the beginning of each round. Each results sheet must be filled in properly to ensure that match-ups and point totals are correct. Once Record Sheets are completed they are to be turned in at the counter so the scores can be entered into the computer.


The scenarios can be found in the rules packet here: http://privateerpress.com/files/Steamroller_2010_v2%283%29.pdf



What You Need to Bring with You:
-Your (hopefully painted) miniatures
-At least two copies of your army list(s)
-Rulebooks and any additional books you need
-Paper and pencil or marker
-Cards for the models in your list
-Dice and templates
-Tape measure

Can't wait for the first Battlegrounds WarMachine Tourney @ Plainville.  Looking forward to seeing the new store.
You're putting words in my mouth and creating false scenarios.

You'll get "real answers" when you recognize your fallacies, however, they won't be from me. Enjoy your Internet tough guy routine. - Ian

The Steamroller goes down this coming Saturday.  I've recently found all sorts of older goodies I plan to give out as additional prizes.

If you guys plan to come down, please shoot me an email or give the store a call.  I'm trying my best to gauge the turnout so we can set up the appropriate amount of tables.

Thanks guys!


(you may want to shoot me an email even if you're sure I know you're planning to play)
