Event Rules Pack

Welcome to IronFront – Glimmerwood, a Warmachine Campaign that

invokes battles of Honour and Courage! Can you safeguard the

sanctity of The Calderan League’s relic and maintain world

balance? Can you crush the enemy and fulfil The Gears of Fate’s

agenda? The future of Western Immoren is in your hands!

Glimmerwood lies between Ord, Lael, Ios, Cygnar and the Bloodstone Desert. Although not much is known about this mysterious area, a secret lies deep within and control of this territory could determine the fate of Western Immoren! The Guardians of the Enkheiridion have formed a secret sect, The Calderan League, to safe guard its relic, The Lost Pages of the Enkheiridion. However, a select few are aware of this relic’s existence and are determined to take control of the relic, hoping to change their personal fate or the outcome to the current Western Immoren wars. As scouts have made aware of Calderan League’s size and existence, these select few have called for an alliance, named The Gears of Fate, to fulfil their personal agenda. Latest scouting reports indicate that the relic currently lies in Thornheim and the time to seize the relic is now.

Models must be fully assembled. It must be based according to their designated base size with front arcs marked on their base. Players who fail to comply may be subjected to penalties according to EO’s discretion.

3.4 Proxy / Conversions

Proxying models is discouraged. However in light of players facing difficulty in getting models in a short period of time, only proxies for warcaster/warlocks and solos are allowed, subjected to the EO’s discretion. A good guideline is the proxying model must be similar to the original. As an example, while Stryker2 can be represented by Stryker1, Stryker3 by no means can be represented by Stryker1. Conversions are allowed, subjected to the EO’s discretion. It is strongly recommended for the converted model to be similar to its original model.

P a g e 5

All proxy models must be written down on the player’s army list beside the model’s name if used. The label must be followed by a note detailing a significant part of the proxied model for identification purposes. e.g.
