• All armies must be fully painted. Any miniatures not fully painted will be pulled from the table prior to starting the tournament.

• Rounds will be determined by game play results and each player will be seeded with an opponent of his caliber.

• We will also attempt to match up allies vs. axis whenever possible but do not expect every game to work out historically.

• Our prizes will be awarded in the following order of importance and no player shall be awarded more than one prize. We will hand out awards for the following categories:

Best Overall (Highest overall score)
2nd Place Overall
3rd Place Overall
Best General (Awarded to the player with the highest Battle points)
Best Sport (Awarded to the player with the highest Sportsmanship score)
Best Army (Best appearance score rated by the judges)
Best Platoon (Best painted platoon rated by the judges)
• We will also have other prizes on hand for other acts of bravery over the weekend.
