IN GAME INFORMATION
60 Minutes clock time per player.
Deployment – we will use the long edge deployment for all games as this will be most comfortable for players given the layout of the tables in the store.
There is a strict round timeout after 2:15 hours. So if you have been pausing too much we will dice down and stop the game as per round timeout below. This is essential with the new edition to hold timing of event as a whole. If you are going second don’t pause the clock too much!
Turn 7 is to be rolled for as per standard Kings of War rules. Chess Clocks must be running during deployment, for any Scout moves and throughout the player’s turns. They can be paused for any action involving a roll-off, rules disputes but do rules checking on clock.(BE AWARE of the round end time out!). Clocks cannot be paused for normal in game checks, such as LOS, etc.
From the second game, players will be paired using a Swiss system (i.e. matching players on the same number of TPs, in descending order). Scenario points will be used as the first decider then K*ll points.
PLAYER TIMEOUTS
If a player runs out of time on their clock they may finish the combat or shooting (1unit only) that has already started. Conclude any rolls and any accompanying dice including nerve rolls. Then dice down. After that any unresolved nerve checks are treated as a ‘Steady’ result. During the remainder of the game, the player may not issue any orders or roll any dice, including for rules such as Regeneration nor activate any artefacts, except for the turn 7 roll.
ROUND TIMEOUT
Should players start their game late, or pause for too long, then the game can time out due to the round ending. Players should be aware of the scheduled time remaining. If the players can see that the round is going to end before they finish their game then they should endeavour to finish the game so each player has had an equal number of turns, e.g., both players should have had 5 turns each as opposed to one player having 5 and the other 6. If the round time ends, then both players must immediately dice-down and end the game.
DISAGREEMENTS
Please try to sort out any problems yourself. Make a dice roll or if in doubt, a TO will be available to resolve your problem. Please also respect the time each player has. If a question cannot be resolved quickly, please stop the clock until the answer or a solution is decided upon. TOs will be on hand if you require a ruling. A referee’s ruling is final, even if their ruling is later shown to be incorrect
SCORING (this is subject to change following 4th release)
At the end of each game, players report the results of their game to the Tournament Organiser (TO) using their score sheet. Tournament Points (TPs) The amount of Tournament Points (TPs) you have scored in your game is calculated using three criteria:
Result Points (Max 7 Points)
Win 7
Draw 5
Loss 2
Scenario Points (Max 7 points):- This will be based on the scenario result out of a maximum of 7
K*ll Points Calculate the amount of your opponent’s army you killed.
Kills Points (Max 6 points):
401 -800 points 1
801 -1100 Points 2
1101-1400 Points 3
1401-1700 Points 4
1701-2000 Points 5
2001-2300 Points 6
