Format & Rules:
As always, community, comradery, and connection are our first priorities here at the Academy. All players will be expected to adhere to the NETC & ITC Code of Conduct, and to be humble in victory and gracious in defeat.
- Matched play with 1,000 points per player. Each teammate should bring a Battle-forged army with up to two (2) detachments. Each player will start with six Command Points.
- Army lists must be e-mailed to events@theadventurersacademy.com by Sunday, 4/3.
- Forge World and Legends are permitted.
- Both player's detachments combine to form one army. The "rule of three" still applies. If both teammates are using the same Codex, they cannot double up on similar datasheets.
- You may not duplicate unique or named characters on the same team.
- A team will count as one army with two detachments in terms of deployment and scoring primary/secondary objectives. Only one Combat Interrupt may be used per turn. Powers and abilities (such as "Smite") will increase in difficulty as if the combined team is one army.
- Teammates will count as separate armies/detachments for use of their own Command Points., as if they are individual warlords in command of only their own forces. Each player may use the Insane Bravery stratagem once per game for their own units only. Command reroll and overwatch may be used by both teammates in the same turn.
- Auras and army-wide abilities will affect your teammate's forces if both armies share the relevant keywords.
- For secondary objectives, teams may only select a Codex-specific secondary objective if both teammates share the fame faction and same keywords, per the GT rules on mixed forces. Only one Codex-specific secondary objective may be selected for each game.
- Both players of a team will gain one CP at the start of each turn and may spend the CP on stratagems for their half of the army only.
- Models should be WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get), so whatever weapon your model has is the weapon that it should use. Proxies must be pre-approved by the tournament organizer (TO) at events@theadventurersacademy.com.
- Any new codex released 3/26 or later and any FAQ published 4/2 or later will not be used.
- Players should bring four copies of a printed army list, as well as a copy of the rules, codex(es), dice, and tape measure. Digital copies of the rules are permitted; however, your device should be fully charged and ready to be used all day. If your rules aren't accessible, our judges will make rulings at their own discretion.
- Games will be played on 44"x60" boards. Rules will be from the Grand Tournament - War Zone Nachmund: Mission Pack. We'll be using missions #12, #23, and #33 from the Strike Force section. Scoring will be by the standard ninth edition rules.
- Total maximum score per mission will be 100 points. Final placing will be based upon win/loss record first, with battle points as the tie breaker.
- Painted armies are not required, but ten bonus points per mission will be awarded to armies that are "Battle Ready." Each team may score up to ten points, with each player scoring five points each if their army meets the "Battle Ready" criteria. Players will be scored separately. For the purposes of this event, "Battle Ready" will be defined as follows: three color minimum with no bare primer showing (unless dry-brushed and shaded); and bases detailed, textured, or one solid color (flying bases and stems may be left clear).
- Total participation is limited to 20 teams, or 40 players.
