Rules
o All rulings of the judge are final.
o You must use the same army list for each game.
o While painting will be scored and opponents will apprieciate painted armies it is not required to play in the tournament ot have a painted army.
o You must conduct yourself in a manner that will not bring the hobby into disrepute. At teh very least conduct yourself as you would have your opponents conduct themselves.
o All selections in your army must be from the most current codex or army book. Special characters, or other items are only legal if they are chapter approved or otherwise official. Any items which require opponents approval are prohibited. All forge world vehicles are legal only if there are rules for them from Games Workshop.
o The total score will be out of 225pts. Painting and sportsmanship with be worth 50pts each. Composition will be worth 25 pts and will be used for pairing purposes. The battle score from winning games will be worth 100pts.
o What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG). If you wish to use an item, it must be represented on the figure. Army list choices whose models aren't available must be converted. If a reasonable person familiar with the game can not identify what your conversion is then do not use it. We dont want you showing up with something you cant use!
o Players may sign up to be part of a team. This sign up must be done before the tournament and any 3 players may form a team. The three player teams will compete for the team prize. The score of each team will be a combination of the overall scores of all three players.
o New Codexes or Army books - When a new Codex or Army book is published, you must use it if it comes out 1 month or more prior to the tournament. If the book comes out less than 1 month before the tournament, you can use either the new book or the exsiting book.
o You must bring 3 objectives (should be based o 50mm or less) and 3 messengers (should be based on 20 or 25mm bases).
o You must bring all materials needed to play including dice, measuring devices, templates, models, and any rules that you will be using.
o All cocked dice must be rerolled.
o Seventh edition rules will be used for this tournament.
o Players will score 15pts for a win, 10 pts for a draw and 5 pts for a loss. Players may score one additional battle pt for each of the following conditions if they meet it:
Killing the enemy general not running him off the table or running him down.
Having a Battle Standard at the end of the game yours or your opponents.

o Your army must be no more than 2500 pts.
o Your army may not be constructed using a list from Lustria; nor can you use any appendix list, citadel journal list, or Warhammer chronicles lists.
o Storm of chaos lists many not used except for Archaon's Horde and Middenland.
o Regiments of renown are usable in a Dogs of war army only. Regular dogs of war units are usable in any army that allows them.
o Rhinox riders are usable only in the Ogre army.
o Allied contigents are not allowed.
o Special Characters are allowed if they are named characters published in your army's official codex.
o A comp system will be used. We feel this should be viewed as a handicap as not all armies were created equal. Players should not be discourage if their army is not a perfect comp army as that is very hard and creates fairly poor armies. Armies will be scored using the following checklist. You receive 1 points for each item you check.
1 less than 25% characters.
2 less than 15% characters.
3 No Lord.
4 Less than 11 casting or 7 dispel.
