Schedule Registration 10:00am Game 1 10:05-12:35 Lunch 12:35-1:45 Game 2 1:45-4:15 Game 3 4:20-6:50 Awards 6:50-7:00 ARMY SELECTION & SIZE Players will create their army lists using the Matched Play system from the General’s Handbook 2022-2023 in Gallet. Please note any other Warscroll with matched play points can be used (Forgeworld etc.). Armies will be 2000 points and will follow all the restrictions for Battlehost recruitment in the 2022 General’s Handbook. TWO-LIST FORMAT For this tournament, we will use a two-list format. Create and submit two different lists. The only thing that cannot change is your army Faction. Prior to determining Attacker/Defender in a Battleplan, place a copy of each list face down. Both players then reveal which list they have chosen to use for that battle. Bring two vastly different list types! Play mind games with your opponent! Have fun with it! LIST SUBMISSION Players are expected to use the Best Coast Pairings App and have all lists uploaded and submitted by midnight the night before the tournament. Submit both of your lists into the same field when entering into the app. (i.e. Copy and paste the first list, go down a few lines, then copy and paste the second.) Bring a printed copy of each list on the day of the tournament. WE DO NOT ACCEPT HANDWRITTEN LISTS. There are several programs that will calculate your army list for you for free, including www.scrollbuilder.com. For clarity • All your Allegiance Abilities, Command Traits, and Artifacts must be stated on your army list. • All units must be written in the sizes they will be used in. • All upgrades and options must be shown on the list. ARMY PAINTING We think games of AoS look best when all models are fully painted and modeled to represent what they should on the battlefield. While fully painted armies are not a requirement for this tournament, we wish to encourage players to paint their armies. We have adopted the following rules for our tournaments. Battle Forged - An army that is fully painted may re-roll priority rolls of 1. If your army is Battle Forged and your opponent is not, you may choose deployment instead of rolling off. If both players are Battle Forged, roll off as normal. An army is considered Battle Forged when the following apply • All models used must be fully painted miniatures of the appropriate type for the troops they represent. • The minimum requirement is 3 colors in an appropriate scheme, with textured/painted bases. PAINT COMPETITION Monster/Behemoth Bring a unit with the monster or behemoth keyword to enter the paint competition. All players will vote on their favorites. You don’t have to have used the model in your tournament games to enter it in the competition. Top 3 awarded. AWARDS • 1st place - $50 in store credit • 2nd place - $40 store credit • 3rd place - $30 store credit • Paint Competition (Top 3) - $10 each in store credit If you have any further questions, please message Keith Wood on Facebook or Discord.
