ARMIES

o attend this event, you will need at least one ully painted and based

army o up to 1650 points, selected using the “choosing your army”

section o the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook (page 116).

You may bring more armies i you wish, and play any o them that you

eel like game to game. Tis is to give everyone involved a bit o variety

over the weekend. While many people are perectly happy to play with

just one army over the weekend, it’s not a requirement o the event andi you want to mix it up a little you can.

Please be aware however that we do require that all o the miniatures

you bring have been produced by Games Workshop and are ully

assembled, painted and based. For the sake o clarity or your

opponents, and to avoid mid-game conusion, we also require that

each model represents exactly what it is on your army lists (including

all weapons and equipment).

GAMES

Over the course o the weekend, you will get to play five games o

Warhammer 40,000, each lasting up to two and a hal hours. Beore

each game, we will randomly select a mission rom the Maelstrom

o War section o the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook (pages 148-153),

which everyone in the event will play. Once the mission is played, it

will be crossed off our list; each one will only be played a maximum o

once.

All your opponents throughout the weekend will be randomly selected

or you by the Events eam. Simply find out what table you are on, and

make your way there to meet your opponent and start your game.

GRUDGES

I you and another player agree, we can arrange that you play against

each other in the last game. Tis is a great way to ensure a thoroughly

climatic ending to your weekend, or a chance to settle old grudges in

the finest way possible - alongside a good riend.

We call these matches grudge matches and we take details afer your

first game on Sunday during lunchtime - so i you want to arrange a

match just let us know!

SCORING

Troughout the event, you’ll earn Victory Points in your games. At

the end o each game, simply record how Victory Points you earned

or primary and secondary missions combined. How many Victory

Points, combined with how many Favourite Game Votes you score

(see below) will help determine who is awarded the mighty Trone o

Skulls trophy.

SUPREMACY POINTSAt this Trone o Skulls, the name o the game is o course, to reign

supreme. As a result we have a unique award to give away – the

Supreme Commander – to whoever scores the most ‘Supremacy

Points’ that weekend. We will record Supremacy Points using the

ollowing rules:

• Every Victory Point you score gains you a Supremacy Point.

• Every Supremacy actical Objective you succeed at gives you three

Supremacy Points.

• We will then multiply your Supremacy Points by your Favourite

Game Votes to get your total Supremacy Points or the weekend.

EXAMPLE:

James plays in all five games and scores a total o 65 Victory Points

and does this by succeeding in 40 individual actical Objectives

throughout his games.

Tis total o 105 is now multiplied by his Favourite Game Votes, o

which he received 2.

Tis leaves his Supremacy total at 210.

FAVOURITE GAME VOTES

Favourite Game Votes are simple - just pick the game you enjoyed

the most that weekend. It’s a great way to acknowledge a really un

game, an opponent with whom you had a great rapport, or maybe it

was just that their army looked antastic. Votes are taken at the end o

the weekend with the results o your final game, so please show your

appreciation o your avourite opponent.

HOW TO WIN THE THRONE OF SKULLS

At the end o the weekend, we will call all o the players who have

earned the most Favourite Game votes to the stage. O these players,

the one who has scored the most Victory Points will be awarded the

legendary Trone o Skulls trophy. Only players who themselveshanded in a Favourite Game vote are eligible.

At this Trone o Skulls, i there is a urther tie afer Victory Points,

then we will use Supremacy Points as a final sorter.SUPREMACY - HOW TO REIGN SUPREME.

Te eagle eyed amongst you will notice that this event is based around

the brand new actical Objective cards that were released a ew

months ago.

Tey should still be on the shelves, so bear in mind you will need

 your own set of supremacy cards to attend this event!

We will have plenty on the shelves o Warhammer World, just in case

you can’t get any in the run up to the event.
