Rules
Chapter Approved Mission Deck 25-26 and Companion will be in use. Note: if any FAQ’s or balance data slates are released after list submission on the 23rd January they will not be in use for this event.
List submission will be by 23:59 on the 23rd January. Late list submission or changing of lists after this date will be subject to a 20-point penalty as per the ITC code of conduct.
Armies will need to be painted to Battle Ready standard. Those Armies who do not meet this standard will lose the 10 points per game for not being Battle ready, note an entire army that has been just dry brushed will also not accepted as battle ready.
The primary missions and deployments are listed in the schedule above. We will be using UKTC terrain and formats. The terrain layouts are on this link and a copy will be on the tables.
As the missions are predetermined and secondaries will be drawn as normal.
All models must be WYSIWYG and made clear with your opponent. Any models not WYSIWYG must be cleared with the T.O prior to event, this also includes 3d printed or proxy models. 3D printed models can only take up a model count for your army to a maximum of 20%
Any discrepancies in lists will result in a VP penalty of 10 points of all matches up until the point of discovery and the discrepancies must be rectified for the rest of the event
You MUST have rules available for every unit in your army, including erratas.
Players that have not finished their full 5 rounds the game ends at the end of that current round (Note, both players must play the same number of rounds). The points at the end of that round are the final score, allowing for any end of game secondary scores, games may not be talked out and extra points added on for what might have happened. Chess clocks are allowed at this event. Judge/TO decisions are final when it comes to resolving these games.)
All scores must be submitted within 10 minutes of each game ending. Failure to do so will result in a 0-0 result.
Each player must score their games, either on Score Sheets provided or the Tabletop Battles APP. This will reduce score inconsistencies and issues.
Have a great event and most of all have fun.
