Gather your battle buddies for a 2v2 mash up!

4 teams of 2 players each, 2 matches, 1000pts per player.

Rules

List Composition:

Standard list building rules apply, it is recommended each player use the offical 40k app to ensure lists are legal and up-to-date.

Teams can consist of any combinations of factions. Effects, auras, stratagems, unique to your faction only affect your units however.

Deepstrike:

Normal deepstrike rules for a 1000pt game apply to each player, i.e. 50% of your army can start the battle in reserves. 500pts per player, 1000pts per team.

Command Points:

Each player will gain a CP at the start of a new turn in the normal way, any additional CP generated through units e.g. The Swarmlord will go into a 'team pool' that can be used by anyone on that team.

Points for Paint:

We love seeing your armies painted up here at Hail Mary's, thats why we do follow the offical warhammer ruling for scoring for paint.
Teams can score a maxium 10 points for "Painted" armies (5 points per team member). When all models in a player's army have 3+ colours, a textured base and a painted rim they will be considered and scored as "Painted", exceptions to bases can be made if the obvious theme of the scheme doesn’t call for a textured base.

Proxies:

Can be used providing everyone at the table is happy with the proxy and there is no obvious advantage in terms of scale compared to the official model, all proxies must be on the same size base as the official model.

Match ups & Maps:

The event will consist of 2 games both played on 60"x44" maps.

1st game match ups will be randomly drawn, as will the table assignment.

2nd game we consist of the winning teams from each table going head to head, with the losing sides fighting it out for 3rd place.

Matches:

Deployment, primary’s, terrain layout have been selected from UKTC.

Mission Decks:

Missions:
