What's the word on allowing recent 40k rules? With Curse of the Wulfen having Space Wolf and Daemon updates, people might want to run some stuff out of it. Will there be a cutoff date like last year or will it be on a case-by-case basis?


Cutoff date is listed in the rules:

Codices, Codex Supplements and Warhammer 40K Campaign Supplements that are released prior to February 28th,
2016 will be allowed in this event. Apocalypse War Zone supplements, Apocalypse Formations, Forge World army lists
and material from the Horus Heresy books WILL NOT be allowed in this event.


Could anyone tell me if Curse of the Wulfen made the cut...basically I can not find an official release date anywhere...thanks

Made the cut. There are even a section Curse of the Wulfen in the Warhammer 40K Rules Addendum and FAQ .

How many players are in the 40k Championship this year? The site says 20 spots remaining but doesn't say what the capacity is.

I believe initial capacity was 256

Anybody else getting an email from the hotel asking if we want to cancel?

Yeah, but it's also the wrong date? I mean, I'm not planning on cancelling. Unless they are charging 4 dollars for a can of soda again.

Just noticed that too. It says my reservation starts on Thursday which is weird.

I got the same email, I guess there might be a lot of demand for rooms?

Totally not cancelling either - going to cut the last several runs of tokens tomorrow, load up the car full of ModCubes, booth stuff, and a few volunteers, and make the 11-hour drive to the best gaming convention known to mankind

Sorry, bit excited, but this is going to be amazing . Loved the extra space of the new venue last year, and guessing it will be even better this time around!!

I'm staying over at the Embassy Suites this year, no emails about cancelling.

Super pumped to hang out with the Hawk team.

Woo 2 days!

Super psyched to play, Necrons gonna be coming out in full force.

Which means in the Championship I'm gonna go 1-3

Wait, Adepticon does not allow the Knight Atrapos?

I think experimental Forge World rules aren't allowed.

See y'all tomorrow!

You are right about experimental FW rules not being allowed, however the Atrapos rules are not experimental. No stamp anywhere that says the rules are experimental.

Is anyone streaming the 40k championships?

Probably because it is under Horus Heresy as opposed to Warhammer 40K.

I've been searching all day for one and it doesn't appear anyone is.

Results? Updates?

Frankie of Team0Comp made it to Day #2.

Is there any coverage at all?

Doesn't seem like it. I can't find anything.

Why is this a results black hole? Anyone have the top 16 list?

There is some coverage of the frontline guys on their website. It truly shocks me that in the age of democratized media, there is no video coverage of adepticon.

It shocks me there's no social media posting even of a picture of the results sheet. They used torrent of fire a few years ago, don't really understand why they're not using it or another program.

Top 16 Qualifiers:

1 Aleong, Aaron

16 Johnson, Kenneth

Battle Point cut was higher this year 99ish or so out of 120 (compared to 91 last year for top 16 and 85 for top 32).

To the best of my knowledge and going off Evan's stuff from above

1. Aaron Aelong Thunderstar
2. Brett Perkins Double WK eldar
3. Nick Nanavati Daemons with lots of screamers
4. Frankie Giampapa Battle Co
5. Brad Chester Eldar? He won best Xenos I think
6. Burno Choquette ?
7. Chris Hanes ?
8. Eric Hoerger Daemons
9. Aaron Simone Double Wk eldar
10. Jhason Hardy ?
11. William Townsend ?
12 Thomas (TJ?) Lanigan Tyranids
13 Baxter Seguin Necrons?
14 Tony Grippando Eldar/Space Marines/IG
15 Phi Rodokanakis ?
16 Kenneth Johnson Tau?

Tons of list diversity this year. Not as many double WK lists out there as you would expect. Although Mission two was tricky for battle co I would have expected to see many more of them and I saw hardly any.

Phil is playing Council

Any chance of getting some lists/will they be posted anywhere?

I'm Townsend and I was running gk as my itc faction (most points) but was running a fenrisian wolf deathstar.

Frankie wins round 1 of finals

WTB software that is free and tracks this sorta thing.

Pretty disappointed in the coverage.

How am I supposed to live vicariously through the people that were able to attend?!?!

Aaron Wolfstar vs Matt Root War Convocation in the Finals.
