So here are the new rules for the 40k tournament.
This year Simcon will once more have the Rochester Games Workshop championship. This is a two day event with a 40k tournament on Saturday and a fantasy tournament on Sunday the winner of the whole tournament will be the person with the highest combined score. We will have gift certificates for prizes in the overall of $90 for 1st, $45 for second, $30 for third, and $20 for 4th. This is addition to prizes for the two tournaments which will be based upon the number of attendants. Cost for one or both days is only $15. I hope all can make it for the this tradional event.
Saturday March 27 Warhammer 40k 10am
• Player will enter as a team each player with an armies consisting of 1,500 points using a force organization of 2 HQ, 6 troops, 2 Elites, 2 Fast, 2 Heavies for each player.
• The Warhammer 40,000 5th Edition Rules will be used.
• The AdeptiCon INAT FAQ will be used (Updated 12.02.09).
• All army lists must follow the 40K Championships section of the AdeptiCon 2010 40K Army List rules.
• Forge World/Imperial Armor units are not allowed, however players may still use their Forge World models to represent a unit from their codex.
• Individual units that may have multiple rules versions will follow the rules presented in that army's codex. Yes, this means a Black Templar Land Raider will function differently than a standard Space Marine Land Raider. Please take the time to review the relevant GW/AdeptiCon FAQ's for clarifications.
• Special/Unique/Named Characters may be fielded, provided their individual rules allow them to be used in armies of 1,850 pts or less.
• The 'What You See Is What You Get' (WYSIWYG) rule is in effect. That means all units must be easily identifiable as the particular codex choice they represent and that any and all weapons/options taken for a unit must be clearly represented on the model(s).
• You must provide access to your own rules (which include the actual Codex used for your army), dice, templates, pen/pencil, calculator, or anything else you'll need during the course of regular play.
• A separate printed army list is required for the judges and each of your opponents.
• In order to keep the tournament running on schedule, when time is called for a round, all player's must drop the dice and stop playing - no exceptions. Because of this, please be aware of the time left in the round and do not start a turn you cannot finish. A hard warning will be issued with 15 minutes remaining in the game. NO Game Turn shall be started after this warning is issued, period.
• If illegal units or rules violations are found in a player's list, at a minimum, the models in violation will be removed from all subsequent play. Tournament points may be deducted and award eligibility may be forfeited. Please use the feedback form on this website to ask any questions you or your club may have regarding rules issues or legal units in advance!
• Tournament Judges' and Officers' rulings are final and arguments or poor conduct by players will not be tolerated. Organizers reserves the right to remove players from the tournament with no refunds allowed.
Sunday March 28 Fantasy tournament 10am
* You must bring an army list of 2250 points or less, using the most current army list for your army. Warhammer Fantasy 7th Edition rules will be used. The most recent rules errata/clarifications will be in effect.
* Special/named characters from the army books will not be allowed. Ravening Hordes Chaos Dwarves, Indy GT Chaos Dwarves, Rhinox Riders, DOW Giants will be allowed. DOW, appendix armies, and storm of Chaos are not allowed.
* All of the most recent rules errata/modifications are in effect. The word of the Tournament Judges is final.
* WYSIWYG models are required. Painted armies are not required.
* Bring everything you will need to play: measuring device, dice, templates, army lists, rules.
* This event is about having a good time. Good sportsmanship is the most important rule.
* The tournament will consist of 3 rounds. A win will be a victory by 300 points or more, unless a scenario changes the victory conditions. The objectives to complete will change from round to round; sheets will be handed out providing details on which objectives will earn bonus battle points.
* Scoring categories will consist of: Battle, Sportsmanship, Army Composition, and Army Appearance. Battle is based on win/loss/draw. Sportsmanship is scored by the opponent after the game. Army Appearance will be scored by independent tournament judges.
* Comp will be scored using Warhammer players society system divided by 200.
* For all scenarios the wood elves will get to bring and use a woods if they have one available.
* Spells can only be ended by a wizard at the end of a phase.
In order to claim a board quarter or objective a unit must be US5+ with a banner or US 10. Also Fliers, skirmishers, and single models may not claim quarters or hold objectives.
* No model may be moved farther than its movement allowance except by charging.

It seems he just forgot to copy this bit from the Simcon website (http://www.simcon.org/warhammer.php): "Scoring categories will consist of: Battle, Sportsmanship, and Army Appearance. Battle is based on win/loss/draw. Sportsmanship is scored by the opponent after the game. Army Appearance will be scored by independent tournament judges." |

I just want to throw this in the pot, because i KNOW it will become an issue.
Unique characters should be limited to one per team. I would hate to play the team that has two doom of malentais.
Is that fair?
BTW, this may or may not be addressed in the rulebook. I don't have one here, so im just addressing this here just in case it isn't

3000 point games sound like a clusterf*ck waiting to happen.
Might be fun to break out the Fantasy though.

3000 points a side won't be bad. I'm looking forward to this. Still in need of a partner.

It's in the Douglas Dining Hall. You can park wherever you want on the weekends, and there are some signs around that point to it. It's in the same building as the bookstore.
