The table for the event should be a treat for gamers to play on and eye catching to boot!
Looking good! I'm starting to worry about my lack of painting skills. I AM NOT WORTHY!!!
LOL, not to worry matey, having painted model proves that you worthy by default!

I was under the impression that the army lists wern't due until the actual event? Or was that just 40k?

Yes, only Fantasy lists are due early.
40K, just show up with your lists.
Only a few tickets left for Fantasy, and less than 20 for 40K!
If you want to come, jump on those tickets fast!

Me too, the original BAO was a blast and the narrative event sounds very interesting this year.

I'm planning on bringing Necrons to the fight.
2100 points? I'll see what I have though it looks like I'll need to use some second ed models to fill out my list

Awesome we needed another baddie! Once you register and we bring you into the conversation, I am sure that if you come up short one of the other players could fill in any points deficit.
Cheers,

Just to be clear about how the scoring for the 40k singles works; Obviously 1 kill point is worth 1 point, and then each objective is worth 1 point...
Is this a correct understanding?

I thought that If you win kill point and you win objectives but lose cap and control you win. If you say win kill points lose cap and control and tie objectives then you draw. I belive you have to win 2/3 the mission objectives to get a win.

About 10 40K Tickets left.
Each book mission is a single victory condition. Cap and Control, Kill Points and Seize Ground. You win each mission as normal. Whoever wins the most missions, wins the game.
For example, if you have both cap and control objectives, and won on kill points, but your opponent had more seize ground objectives, you won 2 missions, he won 1. Therefore, you win the game.
Does that clear it up?

I just noticed something Grimgob. It is possible to win, afaik, if you win 1 missions and tie the other two. For example we play round 1, which would be awesome ::wink wink reece::  , and I win on KPs but we tie C&C and Seize Ground I would still win because I won a mission and we drew the other two. If I am wrong please correct me Zero Comp team!

That's correct to my understanding. As long as your number of victory conditions exceeds your opponents, you win.
