Thanks to the awesome crowd and owners at GMI and a big congrats to Q and Scott, our March winners. See Tournament pics HERE.
Our next event will take place at Pair-A-Dice on April 9th.

The Place: Pair-A-Dice Games
The Date: Saturday, April 9th
The Time: Registration at 11am

Contact the store at 760-940-0139 to reserve your spot

Entrance is $10 per person, with trophies for the top team and gift certificates awarded to the top 4 finishers. Gift certificate will also be awarded for Best Painted Army (individual).


Returning players please note the point change - Armies are now 1250 per player (2500 per team)!


1. Force Composition: Each team consists of 2 players. Each player fields an army of up to 1250 points, chosen from a single codex (players on the same team may play armies from different codices). Daemon Hunter and Witch Hunter allies may be used normally. Note that teammates cannot "share" points - any unused points by either player are simply lost. Both teammates’ armies must meet Force Org Chart requirements and obey all restrictions.

2. Players only benefit from special rules or wargear in their own army. For example, Player A's units are unaffected by Player B's Chapter Tactics, even though they are on the same team. Likewise, Player B cannot use Player A's Teleport Homing Beacons. A good rule of thumb is that ally's units are only affected if enemy units are as well. Turns are taken as a team, with both players moving, shooting, assaulting, etc.

3. The latest FAQs (available from www.games-workshop.com) will be used. Any rule disputes will be resolved by an appointed judge. Judges' rulings are final.

4. Players must provide a clear, written copy of their army list (including point values) which may be inspected at any time by judges or opponents.

Tournament Structure

Deployment: Deployment Type for each round will be "Pitched Battle." Follow all rules for that deployment type as described in the 40K rulebook.
Mission: A different mission will be played each round. All missions will be objective and/or kill point based.

Each game will last for a maximum of 2hrs (with additional 20min for deployment), or 5-7 turns - determined as per the standard missions in the 40k rulebook (turn 6 on a 3+, turn 7 on a 4+)

At the end of each round, teams will be required to rate their opponents' sportsmanship score on a scale of 1-5. This score should reflect the opponents' attitude, organization, and sense of fair play.

Each team will play a total of 3 rounds, with final ranking determined first by record, with ties being decided first by Tournament Points earned, and then by Points Allowed.


Thanks and hope to see you all there

Sorry i missed this one. I chose to go to the RTT at GMI that was on the 10th.
Got 2nd in that one (Grey Knight player whose dice were on fire...fire like the center of the sun being on fire... beat me on the top table.)
4 Melta shots on his Dreadnight, 3 hits, 3 wounds. He rolls a 5 and two 6s for the save..then comes over and pounds on my sternguard for the next 3 turns.
GAK.
