4. We will require that each participant submits an itemized army list to a Battleground Tournament Organizer on or before Monday, March 3rd (roughly a week before the event). An Army Builder .pdf is preferred but a detailed, itemized text file (.txt) is acceptable. PLEASE include the number of points each upgrade and unit costs on your list.
Please email lists to ChaseLaq@gmail.com as soon as they are finalized.
5. If illegal units or other rules violations are found in a player’s army list, at a minimum, the models in violation will be removed from all subsequent play. In addition, tournament points may be deducted and/or award eligibility may be forfeited. If in doubt, please ask for clarification in advance from a Battleground Tournament Organizer.
HOW THE TOURNAMENT WORKS:• Competitors will participate in
FOUR (4) games over the course of the day. In each game, you will play a scenario and record the outcome of the battle on your results sheet. Each round you will play a different opponent. Each round will last
75 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 teams that come to the event together in the first round. If a team receives a BYE they will be awarded the average of the winning teams points for the round.
• You will not play the same player 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 6' board.
• Players will receive Results 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 Results Sheets are completed they are to be turned in at the counter so the scores can be entered into the computer.
BATTLES:The Eighth Edition Rulebook (and all relevant GW FAQ) will be in use for all games and will be the definitive guide for all rules. The time limit for each game is
75 minutes. At the end of this time limit, the round will be called; all players will need to finish their game immediately (dice down), and no additional time will be provided.
