Date: 6.-7. June
Place: Bratislava ? Lama
, Obchodná akadémia Liberta, Borinská 23
Armies: 1750 points using all official codices + Blood Angels army list from GW online. No Forge World rules.
Army limitations: Only one special character per army, who is a separate FOC choice. The following Special Characters are banned from the tournament: Eldrad Ulthran, Ghazghkull Thraka, Fateweaver, The Masque, Korsarro Khan, Cpt.Shrike, Vulkan Hestan. Named upgrade characters (Changeling, Telion etc.) are NOT limited. All official FAQ and errata are in use. ENGLISH codex and rules versions are used. Additional rules FAQs and clarifications are further down.
Models: Your models must be in accordance with your army list ? WYSIWYG. Models are NOT requried to be painted. You MAY use Forge World, special conversions and/or non-GW models, however you need to inform the head judge and all of your opponents about their use and what they represent. ?Flying? models (skimmers, jet bikes) MUST be on a flying base, namely at least 2cm above ground. For jetbikes the base may be a terminator-size base, but the flying stand has to be present. Jump infantry must also be on the flying stand if supplied with one.
Missions: 2 Seize Ground and 2 Capture and Control missions are going to be played and one Annihilation mission. The type of deployment will be rolled for randomly before each round by the head judge. The deployment type cannot be repeated untill all other types have been played.
Tournament points: Achieving the mission objective will be awarded with 3 tournament points. In case no player succeeds in achieveing the Mission Objective, victory points are calculated as a tiebreaker. If one player scores at least 100 more victory points than his opponent, he is the winner of the match, but receives only 2 tournarment points. In case both players achieve the mission objectives equally and/or their victory points difference is smaller than 100 VP the game is a draw and both players receive 1 tournament point. There are no points for a loss. This constitutes a possible maximum of 15 tournament points to which you can get 1 more tournament point for meeting painted army criteria, which will be explained before the tournament.
Terrain: Woods will be mostly represented with a flat base of green carpet or similar with a few model trees. The model trees will be considered at the edges of the terrain even if you will need to move them now and then. So woods will provide cover for non-vehicle non-MC models anywhere on the base as well as behind the base. They will provide a 5+ cover save for vehicles or Monstrous creatures to avoid discussion about covering 50% and moving the trees in order to place models etc. Each table will have at least 25% of its surface covered by terrain as per rulebook. LOS issues will NOT be solved by the judge, use your laser pointer or agree on a 5+ cover if you disagree about LOS.
Entry fee: 8 EUR The fee includes a drink and a little snack on both days + a special gift for each participant!
Prizes: Since we expect participants from several countries, the easiest way to handle prizes is: CASH!!!However, our dear internet shop from wargaming.sk will support us nevertheless with discount coupons for the first places if you decide to spend you prize cash there. There will be also some other prizes in addition as surprise.
All the rest: Start of the tournament is 9:30, so please try to arrive at least 45mins earlier for signing in and getting ready. The venue will be available since Friday evening (5.6.) You can sleep there at NO additional cost. You will need a sleeping bag. There are showers available. Everyone HAS to have their own set of 5 objective markers NOT bigger than a terminator base, also avoid very little ones as well please. The first round will not be completely randomised, as I will try to NOT pair people from the same country together (you are not driving xx Km to play your regular buddy : ) MAYBE if it will be possible and no big issue I will try to avoid such pairing in the second round as well, unless someone will object.
There are 32 spots at the tournament. Please, if you intend to participate send an email to ahriman at wargaming dot sk asap. The deadline for sending in army lists is Friday the 29th of May.

GW-Regeln sind nicht immer gerecht, dafür aber meist schlecht gebalanced.
