TEAM RULES:
Teams are formed of 3 players
A team captain should be nominated, who will send in the rosters, report game results and be the main point of contact (ideally they should also buy the tickets)
Teams can be comprised of any different factions, including those from differing "sides" (eg xenos & imperium)
The same faction cannot be used more than once per team
The only exception to this is Adeptus Astartes which can be used twice in a team, but they must be different subfactions
The allowed factions are:
Adeptus Astartes
Grey Knights
Adeptus Custodes
Adeptus Mechanicus
Adepta Sororitas
Imperial Knights
Astra Militarum
Chaos Daemons
Chaos Knights
Chaos Space Marines
Death Guard
Thousand Sons
Drukhari
Aeldari
Orks
Necrons
T'au Empire
Tyranids
Genestealer Cults

Once a player has finished their game, they are not allowed to help/coach/assist any other team members if they are still playing
If your team loses a player prior to the event and you cannot find a replacement, contact us ASAP and we'll try to find a replacement for you
If a player drops out on the day or we cannot find a replacement, that game will be declared a 100-0 win to the opponents

ARMY RULES:
Each player's army must be battle-forged and no more than 2000pts
Each army should follow the War Zone: Nephilim rules for mustering armies
Lists should be submitted by THURSDAY 4TH MAY at the latest - late submission could result in points being docked.
A team name should be chosen and submitted alongside the lists.
Your army must be Battle Ready painted - if not, you will not get the +10pts per game for being so
Kitbashing, proxies, conversions and 3d printing is all good as long as it bears a logical resemblace to the original model
WYSIWYG is enforced to a certain level - pistols and smaller details can be different, but main weapons must be as described (a sword cannot be a shield)
Legends units are not allowed

EVENT RULES:
The first round is random pairings, with the following 2 rounds being swiss pairing
Teams are paired against each other. This method should be used to decide which player plays each other:
1. Team captains roll off to decide Team A and Team B
2. Both captains secretly note down their first "Defender" - this should be the player must able to take on any opponent - then reveal them at the same time
3. Team A picks one of their remaining 2 players to play vs Team B's defender.
4. Team B then does the same by picking one of their players to play A's defender.
5. The remaining 2 players play vs each other
A round is based on which team scores the most points in that round - not which team wins more! (eg a team could lose 1-2, but win the round due to a higher total combined score)
Any rules, faqs, erratas, dataslates, etc released on or before THURSDAY 4THMAY are valid
Games will be played on a 5ft x 4ft board
This event is open to 16+ (under 18s must be accompanied by an adult)
