This is a resurrection tournament which means injuries and fatalities do not carry over from one game to the next. Players added to a Team roster mid game as a result of the Masters of Undeath special rule or Plague Ridden skills are removed from the roster at the end of the game and do not carry on to the next.
No tiers!! All teams (including Slaan and the new releases that happen before the tournament) are welcome and easy for everyone to join!! Especially easy for new players, and there is a young blood prize as well!!
1,100,000 Gold Pieces to buy a team including inducements.
Available inducements:
Most of the common inducements are available as per the rule book, except the following:
Star Player tax:
PLEASE NOTE: If you take Star Player(s) on your roster, this will cost you a skill tax. You may not allocate extra skills until the tax is paid.
Gold value of Star Players chosen and the skill tax per Star Player:
For example, you draft Skitter Stab Stab into your roster, 170k gold coins, this will mean you get no skills in game 1 and 1 skill in game 2.
Skills:
Roster checks:
Rosters will be checked by the opponent coach in the first round.
Skills markings:
Please use an appropriate way to make clear which player has which skill. Skill rings or bands are advised.
Pairing:
Swiss pairing will be used after the first round. The first round you will be paired on your NAF ranking of your chosen race (this could mean your race rating from 2020 if you don't have one in 2025 yet) instead of random.
Scoring:
ALL casualties caused through a game are counted, e.g. failed dodges, secret weapons, crowd surfs and so on. Just count what's in your dead and injured box dugout (including any regenerations and APO saves).
Tiebreakers: Opponent Score -> Net Touchdowns + Net Casualties -> dice-off, best of 5
CAS:
ALL casualties caused through a game are counted, e.g. failed dodges, secret weapons, crowd surfs and so on. Just count what's in your dead and injured box dugout (including any regenerations and APO saves).
Time management:
Before the match, talk to your opponent which way of time management you will use. Pick 1 of the two options below. If either coach wishes to play with a clock they should provide the clock or app and the other coach will have to play with the clock as well. Both coaches get 1 hour and 5 minutes on the clock. The clock only runs during (blitz)turns. Otherwise, during breaks, setting up, kick-off and rules questions with the organiser the timer is paused. If in your turn your opponent has to make a decision or roll dice, you may run their clock until they are done. When your time is up you may only set up and un-stun your players.
TO's ruling is final:
Any rules arguments will be solved by the Tournament Organisers on the spot and will stand for the duration of the game in which they happen.
Proxies & Unpainted teams:
Proxies are not allowed. Your miniatures should resemble what they are supposed to be. If it looks like a goblin, it should be one. Positionals should be easily recognizable. If in doubt about what you are planning to bring, please contact us beforehand.
When you play with a team that is not fully painted, your opponent gains 3 free dedicated fans. It's up to the TO to decide what's fully painted. If you have any doubts, contact us up front.
Dice:
Please use dice that can be easily read from a distance. You must always let your opponent roll with your dice if he wishes to do so. Agree on what is a cocked dice with your opponent before the game start.
Probability calculators:
Coaches are not allowed any apps or devices to calculate chances during their games.
