This is an American Team Championship Style Event (2 person teams)

Where: Game Empire
7051 Clairemont Mesa Blvd Ste 306
San Diego, CA 92111

*1850 Points
*Sign-ups Begin at 10:00am
*First Round Begins at 10:45am
*3 Rounds Total
*$15 Entry Fee Per Person / $30 Per Team

***Unique awards to be handed out to teams and individuals
***ITC Points will be awarded based on individual performance


ADDITIONAL DETAILS:

This is not going to to be your standard 2 vs 2 team tournament. While you will have a teammate, you will each be playing on separate tables against separate opponents. There will never be more than 2 players playing against one another during the course of this event.

Each team is composed of 2 players

Each player creates and uses their own 1850 point list
***Each list may be created using the ITC army list creation guidelines found on www.FrontlineGaming.org - https://www.frontlinegaming.org/community/frontline-gamings-independent-tournament-circuit/itc-2015-season-40k-tournament-format/

Teams are matched up against one another by the tournament organizer based on performance and assigned 2 tables
***Each team may then coordinate which player will play on which table based on terrain and personal preference.
***Both teams reveal simultaneously to one another which table which player is playing on.

Battle points will be awarded after the conclusion of both games

The winner of the round is determined by which team collectively amassed the most battle points

DON’T HAVE A PARTNER?

That is perfectly fine! Come on down and we will have a “Free Agent” sign up list where we partner you up with others that also couldn’t line up a partner.

You can also try to find a partner on the local Facebook page “San Diego 40k Force Organization.” - https://www.facebook.com/groups/1513727285544832/

Myself and Tasty Taste will be there as a team in force Cya there!

I wish you would go a bit larger with the teams. The reason why is that you get more types of armies on each team, and it makes the captains pairings a lot more strategic

4 person teams or at least 3 would be better. .

I'd agree, but I'm sure there's a bit of a balancing act between team size and space/number of teams.

As Evan pointed out, there is indeed a space issue if we start getting teams that large into that store. I would love to go 3, maybe next time!

Where is this event at?
I didn't see a location in the OP.

Thaylen, excellent point!

My apologies, will update the original post.

It is being held at Game Empire in San Digeo

If you plan on attending this event from out of town (either as a team or a Free Agent) please send me a PM with your name and army of choice and I will make sure to hold a spot for you in case the tournament fills up quickly.

I will actually be able to make this event!

Raw Dogger and I will smoke the competition! Muahaha!

Updates? How did this go? I'm really looking forward to more SoCal team tournaments.

Jim,
Armies played?

I know Adam G. will have brought eldar and Geoff his AdMech (likely). Others?

Is Reece still trying to make orks work?

You?

I brought my BAO Tyranids/Tyranids.

Adam G. Eldar/DE with dual deathstars.

Geoff War Convocation.

Frankie Daemon summoning with the Brass Scorpion.

Reece Speed Freak/biker orks with lots of tankbustas.

TasteyTaste brought Ravenwing bikes with the Land Speeder formation.

Great event! Had a lot of fun. My Orks went 2-1, I got stopped in my tracks by an Ignores Cover Centstar. But, I still would have pulled a tie had the game ended on turn 5. Great opponent. Orks can get it done but they are definitely playing the game on hard mode.

The event was a blast! Well run, very fun. Top generals were an Eldar and Astra Militarum team, and InControl and Tastey Taste won best overall with a Dark Angels and War Convocation team.
