1.0 List Building
Lists must be 650 points (or less).
Players are allowed to bring both a Good and an Evil army. However it is not required for this event you may choose to only bring 1 army.
Each round players will secretly select if they want to be Good or Evil, they will then reveal their selections at the same time. If both players have selected to play the same force, example: both players selected to play their Good army, they will then roll off with the winner being allowed to select if they wish to remain good or flip to evil. Their opponent will then select the opposite force. If a player only brings 1 force, their opponent must select the opposite force if able. If both players only have the same force, the game will be played as is.
No impossible alliances permitted. In addition, the Desolator of the North army list may
not be used.
There are no further restrictions aside from those found under “Matched Play” on pages 128-137 of the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game Rules Manual.
All lists must follow the current rules using the Middle Earth SBG Rulebook. Any current edition publication produced by GW containing profiles for Middle Earth SBG are allowed in the event. (Gondor at war, Scourging of the Shire, ect).
1.1 Models that will not be allowed at this event:
While they may be allowed at future events and other models may be added to the disallowed list, the following models are not allowed for this event.
Tom Bombadil
Goldberry
Smaug, The Deselator of the North
1.2 Painting Requirements:
There is no enforced painting requirement since we are encouraging new players to join in the fun. However fully painted and based armies are encouraged! You will earn 3 tournament points for having a fully painted and based army at this event.
1.3 Event Mission List:
Missions will be selected from the Matched Play Guide.
We will be selecting from the following pools on page 9 of the matched play guide.
Each round will have 3 possible missions, one will be randomly selected for everyone to play the day of the event. The random pools are below.
Round One possible missions: Seize the Prize, Destroy the Supplies or Retrieval.
Round Two possible missions: Lords of Battle, Contest of Champions, To the Death.
Round Three possible missions: Heirlooms of Ages past, Hold Ground, or Command the Battle Field.
1.4 Timed Rounds:
Rounds will be 2 hours. You will be given a notice at 20 minutes remaining in each round. If you do not have enough time remaining for BOTH players to play their turns please do not start another round.
1.5 Scoring:
Each round players will use the scoring as listed in the mission they are playing. Keep track of these results to report to the TO, also mark down the number of enemy LEADERS you have killed during the game. (leaders that flee the table, K*ll themselves, or successfully return from the dead do not count.) Also note down the secret objectives you have completed and used every match with the TO.
Tournament points are earned as follows.
6 Tournament Points for a Major Victory.
5 Tournament points for a Minor Victory.
3 Tournament Points for a Fully Painted and Based army. (Scored only once)
2 Tournament points for a Draw.
1 Tournament points for a Minor Loss.
0 Tournament Points for a Major Loss.
1.6 Ranking:
Players are ranked according to the number of Tournament Points they have; the more Tournament Points a player has, the higher they are in the rankings.
Where Players are tied on the number of Tournament Points, there are a number of Tiebreakers to be used to determine who is higher placed.
The first Tiebreaker is a player’s Victory Point Difference, which is equal to the number of Victory Points scored across all of their games minus the number of Victory Points conceded across all their games.
For example, if Evan has played two games and had the results 3-0 and 7-4, their Victory Point Difference would be +6. If Andrew has played two games and had the results of 10-4 and 12-4, their Victory Point Difference would be 14. Andrew would be in the lead going into round 3.
If players are still tied, the second Tiebreaker is the total number of Victory Points scored across all of a player’s games.
If players ARE STILLED TIED, the third Tiebreaker is the total number of enemy leaders each player has killed across all of their games.
