keeping it simple

Just to keep everything simple for the pre-GT:

300php registration fee.

Each game will be for 1.5 hours except for game 1 which will run for only 45 minutes.

5th edition rules will be in play.

1000 points army lists from the latest codex books will only be used.

All games will be played on 4x4 tables using the Swiss System.

Since it’s a pre-GT, we will be allowing non-painted models/armies as some players are still in the process of building, painting their armies for the up coming GT. Players who did not paint their own army will also be allowed but, we will ask you to be honest. Players may play with fully painted, partially painted, or non-painted army and primed (for non-painted and partially painted armies, do not expect to win best army appearance award and best over-all).

Honesty

We want people to come along to the pre-Grand Tournament to have a great time immersing themselves in our geeky hobby. We want the games to be challenging, the toy soldiers to look cool, and the company of fellow hobbyists to be stimulating. Along the way we’ll present some awards to people who we recognize as “champions of the hobby”. We don’t mind if you bring an army that someone else painted (either borrowing one from a buddy or paying a painting service to paint it for you), that’s a decision you make. We will ask each competitor at each event if they painted their army themselves, and we expect honest answers. Those who did not paint their army themselves are ineligible for the Best Overall and Best Army Appearance awards, but may still quite happily walk away with any of the Best General or Best Sportsmanship awards.Although it might be tempting for some to be less than honest with us, we remind these people that the information age is truly upon us and, if you have lied, the online community will let us know very quickly that this is the case and we will investigate the claims. Those competitors who are “found out” will have their title stripped and we expect the online community will do a pretty good job of sullying their reputation.Please be honest with us. There is no benefit in not being honest.
