BATTLES :

The tournament consists of FOUR (4) games. The time limit for each full game is

three and a half hours. Again, refer to The Schedule.

All games will be played using the traditional Warhammer Scenario as described in the Warhammer Fantasy

Battles Rulebook. See Schedule for notice of which Scenario will be played when.

Only difference to scoring is Blood and Glory – TURN 1, 2 = Massacre Win, TURN 3 = Crushing Win, TURN 4

= Major Win, TURN 5 = Solid Win, TURN 6 = Minor Win. If nobody wins after turn 6 the game is considered a

Draw.

The Warm-Up Period

Before each battle start please spend up to 15 minute discussing with your new partner each others army lists and

setting up ready for your battle ahead, this include setting up, showing your opponent all the models in your army

and discussing terrain. The full time allotment for each full game remains fixed at 3.5 hours. Players are

allowed to ask their opponent questions about the army and the rules that apply to the warriors and heroes in the

army. After inspecting the armies both players should discuss the terrain for the battle and how each feels it willaffect the models in play. They can also discuss any other rules points that they think may come up in the battle.Finally, both players should shake hands and then the battle can commence.

The ‘Counts as’ Rule

An important principle in any GW Tournament is “what you see is what you get” or WYSIWYG. All this meansis that unless you are using the ‘counts as’ rule (see below), the miniatures used are assumed to have the weapons

and equipment actually shown to the model.



Most of the time you should use the WYSIWYG rule above during your games. However, you may if you wish,

decide that certain models in your army ‘counts as’ something else from the army lists of roughly the same size

and function. This is especially useful if you are using converted models, etc.

Remember to let your opponent know which models are using the counts as rule when the game starts, to avoid

confusion.After the Battle

At the end of the game, both players may take time to review their opponent’s roster. Players are allowed to ask

their opponent questions about the army and should call an Organizer if any issues arise from inaccuracy or

inappropriate use of the roster during the game.

AFTER THE TOURNAMENT.

Awards Ceremony :

The awards ceremony will take place as soon as possible after the conclusion of the 4th game.



There will be numerous awards. Prizes will include for 1 st, 2nd, 3rd Overall positions and the soon to be famous

White Gold Award. In addition, other awards will be made available at the discretion of the organisers.

Please remember to help pack up to ensure everyone gets home safely and quickly.

PENALTIES:

As the purpose of this event is that people have fun playing their favourite game, acting in an unsporting or

unfriendly way will be frowned upon. If the Organisers become aware of anyone acting in this way then those

players will be asked to play in an appropriate manner, and if they don’t they will be penalised. Inappropriate

behaviour includes asking picky rules questions, consistently breaking or bending the rules in your favour, or

acting in an annoying or aggressive manner.

The organisers will be more lenient in the event of a breakdown in the teamwork and sportsmanship between

players of the same team. However, if the event that such a breakdown results in a complaint by the opposing side

or is clearly resulting in time wasting, the appropriate card will be shown to that team.

Players that have been asked to play in a sporting manner and who fail to do so will be penalised through a simple

Yellow and Red Card system, as follows:

Yellow Card :

Initially, for the most common offences, the Organisers will give the offending player(s) a Yellow Card and

deduct 10 points from their Tournament Points Score.

Here are some examples of Yellow Card offences; this list is by no means exhaustive but provided to give you aclear guide to our expectations:

• Argument between teams that is obviously disrupting the game and/or event

• Discussing the ongoing game with a non-playing bystander (discussing tactics and so on)

• Excessive time wasting.

• Excessive use of offensive language, gestures or other inappropriate behaviours.

Red Card :

Players who either continue to offend or who commit the most serious offences will be given a Red Card. A Red

Card will result in a 20 point deduction. Any further offence, whether a Yellow or Red Card issue, will lead to a

player who has been previously shown a Red Card to be excluded from the tournament. Red Card offences

include, but are not limited to:

• Argument with an Organiser

• Blatant cheating in a game

• Receipt of a second Yellow Card

Exclusion :

Players that continue to argue with an Organiser, who continue to offend after being shown a Red Card, or who

act in an especially unpleasant or violent manner will be asked to leave the tournament and not return. The

decision of the Organisers is final, and no discussion will be entered into. No refunds will be issued to players

who are excluded. Exclusion offences include:

• Receiving a second Red Card for an offence

• Persistent argument with the Organisers



• Any act of violence, extreme and unseemly behaviour, or extremely inappropriate language

• Failure to correct an illegal army roster

Roster Penalty :

Playing with an illegally constructed army is something that won’t be tolerated, even if the mistake is a totally

honest one. To keep things simple and to demonstrate the seriousness of this issue, the roster penalty will be

applied to any player found with an illegal roster.

The roster penalty will be a deduction of 10 tournament points from every game played so far using the

offending list during the tournament, including the current one.

The Organisers will discuss the changes that are needed to correct the roster with the player concerned. Failure to

comply with the decision will lead to Exclusion.
