This will be a 150 point ITS tournament geared towards newer players. It will have several restrictions to even the playing field (a bit) and to leave out some of the more complex rules interactions.

The general idea is that you can easily take part with a starter pack and maybe a blister or two.

Tournament rules:

150 points.
No more than seven models.*
Hidden Deployment and Airborne Deployment can be used but before the game you have to tell your opponent that there will be surprise models.
Mines cannot be used, instead the models get D-Charges.
Link Teams are capped at three models.
No more than three models that start as Camouflage or TO Camouflage markers.
No Impersonation.
No Sepsitor.
*This includes all models with a full statline, so models with Ghost: Synchronised and Ghost: Servant count towards the total.

The tournament will start off split into two groups so that newer players get matched against newer players while experienced players get matched against experienced players in the first round or two. Match-ups will then be based of performance in earlier rounds.

The aim is to have two rounds before lunch and two rounds in the afternoon.

Games will use simple missions, in some cases taken from the 2013 ITS rules. Specific missions to be confirmed closer to the time.
