MODELS AND POINTS:
1. Each player must bring an army consisting of 2250 points or fewer.
2. ForgeWorld rules and models that go with them will not be allowed for this event.
3. 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 three (3) 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 2 hours.
• 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). A BYE will be awarded the maximum possible points each round.
• You will not play the same person twice.
• The pairings for each round will be posted 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 matchups and points totals are correct. Once Results Sheets are
completed they are to be turned in at the head table so the scores can be entered into the
computer.
BATTLES:
The Seventh Edition Rulebook will be in use for all games and will be the definitive guide
for all rules. The time limit for each game is 2 hours. At the end of this time limit, the round will
be called; all players will need to finish their game immediately, and no additional time will be
provided. For each game, players will play a scenario. Each scenario has a set list
of Special Rules and other information. Players will be informed at the beginning of each round
as to which scenario will be used.
What You Need to Bring with You:
-Your (hopefully painted) miniatures
-At least two copies of your army list
-Rulebooks and any additional books you need
-Pen and paper
-Dice and templates
-Tape measure
-Something to transport your army from table to table
Awards will be given out to:

Second Best Overall Player
Third Best Overall Player (only awarded if the turnout is large)

Best Painted (this will not affect your overall score and can be awarded to anybody independent of other awards)
