I simply cannot find rules for tanksgiving using searches, GW's website, google, etc.. My store is doing it and they said we had to "conform" to GWs ruleset. However I dont even know what this magical ruleset is. For instance, the website says they expect lots and lots of superheavies of all types.. My store is only allowing superheavies FROM apoc books, no IA stuff and no walkers/MCs of any type (Nor can we have any vehicle upgrades)

To me this means we'll only have baneblades which seems quite boring. Anyone know where I can find actual GW rules for tanksgiving?

Here are the rules my store is using:

Black Friday Vehicle Bash

Set Up:
One large 40K table heavily terrained.
Dice, Tape Measures,
LOS Markers. (If you have them)

Objective:
Kill as many enemy vehicles as possible, the player that racks up the most kill
points during the day is a winner.

Scoring System:
Immobilized enemy vehicle 1pt
Killed enemy Vehicle 2 pts
Killed enemy vehicle by ramming 3pts
Killed enemy Super Heavy 5 pts
Keep a running total on a board close to the game.

Upgrade Rolls:
Obviously Baneblades and Land raiders will have an unfair advantage in this game
so to balance things out cheaper vehicles get to roll on the upgrade table before
battle commences. Vehicles under 150pts get 2 rolls on the table; vehicles
151-219pts get one roll. Vehicles over 220 pts get nothing.

Upgrade Table Roll D6
1:Targeting Matrix (+1 BS)
2:Gyroscopic Stabilizers (Veh. Counts as moving 6” less for shooting purposes.)
3:Super Shot. (one shot HK missile Strength D)
4:Safety Harness (Ignore Shaken and Stunned Results)
5:Venerable ( may make enemy reroll on Damage Table)
6:Ablative Armor (+1 front and rear Armor)

Each Player places their vehicle and then rolls off to see who goes first. From there the play goes clockwise around the table. When your vehicle is destroyed it is
removed from the table and then can come on at the start of the next turn from any board edge.

ok same rules we're using.. I dont understand how they can place a Baneblade and a land raider in the same category.. One costs double the other lol

Well whatever, more like "buy our 100$ Kit" rather than tanksgiving

Heh, I'm bringing a Hammerhead. We were told anything with an armor value.
