http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/17.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net 40k Draft at my flgs. I tried following as many of the rules I could glean from the podcast as well as work out my own. The following slots HAD to be filled: 1 HQ, 1 Elite, 2 Troops, 1 Fast, 1 Heavy, 1 Dedicated Transport, and 1 Flex (this could be used for fortifcations, or an additional slot, except HQ's, as well could be used for any squads that don't use a FOC slot, such as command squads and royal courts).
We ended up with 7 people since a lot of people were hesistent about the idea. As we started the draft in the open of our game store it soon attracted a lot of people that want to be included in future drafts.

Some of the rules I put in place; no IG blob squad, powers affect your army regardless of what the unit is, had to build a 1500pt army.

1 flyer limit

1750 point limit

you could proxy anything as long as the base size matched, and as long as all the models of a squad were of the same type (eg. A squad of boys could count as a squad of marines, but you could have a mix of boys and firewarriors as a squad of marines)

Powers that affected certain elements of an army (things that effect just eldar, or just orks) could effect any unit you field

You HAD to field everything you took. Even if you took just the min, it had to represented.

You could only take one unit of the options you picked (You'll notice that one person only has 1 scoring troop, while another used his flex to get another troop, while another took the SM captain, so he could turn his bikes scoring) I figured this would help make people think about missions and such.

Like in my list I was able to max out my troops, but there was no chance I was gonna be able to max out a squad of paladins, or the TWC.

Depending on what you took it would be easier or harder to make everything fit.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519957/5497231.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/519957/5497231.page GMT
