Are people interested in a 40k league on Thursday night at Boldo's in December and January. I would run it like I did last time but with some sort of comp constraints each week. Let me know if people would like to play in this.

There are three comp ideas for 40k I have been throwing around. First there is limits on combined numbers of heavy elites, fast attack and HQ. Second is requiring no duplicates of units where a duplicate unit is any unit with regardless of size with the same wargear and options other than changes to the squad leader (of course the necrons would need an exception). Finally there could be a limit on the total points spent on options for the whole army. What do people think?

I think the league format would be 3 pts for a win and 1 pt for a draw. Each week we would either play a mission or one of two missions rolled randomly. Each player must play an army from the same army book for the whole tournament but the army will have to change from week to week. Each week players could play 2 games with only one scoring. Each week we would have a different comp restriction and point total. Any other ideas or corrections to this?

If you're going to do different point totals every week, I think an escalation style league would be a lot of fun. And it would give me a reason to do a bunch of painting ;D
As for the non-duplication idea, it's great for armies that have a lot of choices. But for those with only one or two viable troop choices (Dark Eldar, Necrons, Tau, etc.), it's very restricting. I think the restrictions on numbers of non-troop choices would work out better.

I also like the idea of an escalation league.

Escalation league is great but I was thinking of something a bit more compact. As there has to be time between games and I was thinking of something in December and January. But if people want this?

I was checking variety and it appears to me that only necrons are variety challenged. Dark eldar can take the following
1 warriors with 2 shredders
2 warriors with 2 blasters
3 warriors with 1 blaster and 1 shredder
4 warriors with 2 dark lances and 2 shredders
5 warriors with 2 splinter cannons
6 warriors with 1 dark lance and 1 splinter cannon
7 warriors with 2 shredders and 2 dark lances
8 warriors with 2 shredders and 2 splinter cannons
exc
This is a lot of choices to me.
