FAQ's

Victory Points: Where victory points are mentioned in the tournement pack they refer to the 6th editon rulebook definition of victory points. Eg, you will gain 1 point for slaying your opponents warlord or 3 points for controling a objective in the emperors will etc.

Valkyries/Vendettas and Scout: I interprit the current Imperial Gurad FAQ to state that the Scout rule has no effect whatsoever on a Valkyrie or Vendetta and therefore they cannot outflank.

Mephistion: I interprit the current Blood Angels FAQ to state that Mephiston can either keep his three codex powers or exchange all three of them for 2 rulebook powers from the disiplines stated in the FAQ. Powers are selected randomly as per the 6th Ed book. Mephistion is mastery level three so he could use his two rulebook powers and activate his force weapon in the same turn. Mephiston cannot give up 2 of his codex powers (and keep the third) and then generate 2 powers from the rulebook.

Errata:

Recon Deployment:

Replace the information on the Recon deployment in the torunament pack with the words below.

Both players roll of. The winner of the roll off chooses one of the long table edges and deploys their force anyhere up to 10" from the table edge. The second player then deploys their force anywhere on the table that is more than 24" away from an enemy unit.

Fortifications are deployed as per the rules in the tournament pack.

Infiltrators/Scouts are deployed as per the rules in the 6th Edition rulebook.

The placing of objectives, rolling for night fight etc will be as per the 6th Edition rulebook

Below is the list of Forge World units people have told me they may like to use in the tournament.

Tau:
Tetra Scout Speeder
XV81 Battle Suits
Tau Hammerhead Plasma Cannon Turrets
Drone Sentry Turrets
Remote Sensor Tower

Imperial Guard:
Hydra Support Platforms
Tauros Support Squadron

Eldar
Wraithseer

If any players would like a copy of the rules drop me an email.

Greg

And Remote Sensor Tower remember!

...and BTW, who's coming? I'm bring the Tau of Fail I took to the GT, with their Ork pets and some FW nastiness. Little Geek is bringing his scary demons (loads of screamers and flamers, if you dont know about the new demons rules read up on them.....they're terrifying).

So who's coming and what are you bringing?

EYIG

Well, Im coming with my Crons.

I have no idea who else would be going out who havent posted here already. Outside of the weekend regulars (such as myself, happygolucky, Ratwolf and Yarrik the Necron), no names spring to mind.

It's looking like there will be around 15 players on the day. There are some players who'll are down as provisional if they all turn up it'll be nearer 20.
