Welcome to our BIG Ruckus Day !!
A tournament for 12 people.
This will be a 3-game campaign.
Each Player will need a Retinue. Players are welcome to bring any of the approved Ruckus Retinues ie Irish, Anglo-Irish, HYW French or English, Swiss, Landsknechts or one of their own devising as long as it conforms to the standard of three Heroes, three Fighters and six Shootists. Free Companies and Outlaws are not permitted for this tournament.

We would ask that players bring 28mm painted figures (minimum of 3 colours), unpainted figures will not be allowed. We can provide Retinues for those who do not own one.

There will be a prize for the Player with the Toughest Character, the one that takes most Characters out of the game, and a prize for the Most Heroic Character, this will be the Character that has pulled off the most High-Risk or Very High-Risk Gambits.
This will require a tally to be kept, 1 point for a HRG and 2 points for a VHRG.
