[Plainville MA] Feast of Blades Qualifier - 2000pt 40k 6th Edition Tourn - 8/4

[Sir_Prometheus]

If you concede or whatever you still get it.  It's meant to fight slow-play.  I don't know that it's really the best way to do that.  (since slow play is often a one sided affair, anyway)

It's going to be much worse in 6th, since A) we're all still getting used to it.  B) There's going to be a lot more rules to argue over.  C) 6th seems to actually take longer to play.

I fully intend on playing my first 3 games of 6th on that day.    I also plan on challenging every rule I haven't experienced yet.

[Sir_Prometheus]

That's not funny.

[keithb]

It doesn't matter, I am going to have 4 tervigons and jam you up with crappy fearless units.  We won't get past turn 3.

You still owe me ice cream. 

[keithb]

Jams used to be considered a dessert, right?

What are the "Qualifying" conditions that have to be met in order to advance to the October event? I (hopefully) plan on enrolling tomorrow, my army is almost built but unfortunately won't be fully painted in time for Saturday.

To qualify you simply have to be one of the three qualifiers by placing in 1st overall, 2nd overall or best general at a qualifier RTT location.

So its battle points + painting.  As the painting rubric is up to 20 points, it behooves one to have a painted army.

Rubric is here;

Oh bummer, maybe I won't sign up then if I'm already going to start off with a severe disadvantage.

[Sir_Prometheus]

Well I imagine best general doesn't include painting, and rubric looks pretty relaxed anyway.

You could also play just to play, get up to speed on 6th.
