MISSIONS:
We will be providing missions constructed using the new Pariah Nexus Mission cards. Any new rules introduced through this card set (via primary / secondary objectives, twists etc) WILL be used and in effect for the evening’s games.
PRIZES: TBD
With only two game rounds being played over the evening, we will not be scoring nor awarding for Best General.
There WILL be a prize for best painted army. Only armies that are 100% completed, including bases, will be considered for Best Painted Army.
Instead of scoring for generalship, players will be able to score for different items on an “Achievements Unlocked” score card. Items on the card could include scoring primary/secondary objectives, achieving cinematic moments, displaying excellent sportsmanship (even coming prepared with everything they need to play!).
At the end of the night, players can ‘cash in’ their score card for prizes.

PAINTING & MODEL REQUIREMENTS
There is no painting minimum or requirement for this event.
Models must be Games Workshop models and 3D-printed models will not be allowed.
WYSIWYG MODELS
What You See Is What You Get means all models have their primary weapon appropriately modelled on the miniature.
Players can have one character and one squad in their army where the weapons don't have to exactly match what is on their datacard (so long as they are still similar enough so as to not mentally tax their opponent with keeping track of what's what in that army).
PROXIES & 3D PRINTED MODELS
- Straight-up proxies ("these marines are actually Ork Boyz" etc) is NOT allowed.
- 3D Printed models are not allowed.
- More...inspired proxies *can* be allowed, so long as they are NOT 3D printed models. These will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and the player must contact Imaginary Wars prior to the event.
CONVERSIONS & 3D-PRINTED BITZ
Conversions are welcome, but the core of the model must still be a GW model and the model should still be representative of the rules being used for that model.
3D-printed accessories are acceptable for conversions if the rest of the model follows the ethos that they are being added to a GW model.
BASE SIZES
All models must be on their proper base size
(ie: Kyle's *old* Aeldari Wraith Guard are on their original 25mm bases. To use them for this event, he would have to mount them on the base size of the current Wraith Guard models: 40mm bases).
