Tournament Rules
Number of Entries: 10
Number of Rounds: 3
Length of Rounds: 75 mins
Threat Value*: 60/50/40
The Adepticon event description mentions a change in threat each ingress. This was a thematic way of saying round, and we apologize for the confusion. There will be three rounds with escalating threat values.
Create one 60 pt list and submit it with two additional breakdowns with no changes in loadouts, adding up to 50pts and 40pts. These breakdowns include the same mcv and unit loadouts as the 60 pt list. Players must field an MCV for each round. This may mean you won't perfectly spend your 50 or 40 threat lists, especially with builds that too heavily emphasize MCVs. Careful list builders will want to make sure they have balanced lists with some low-cost infantry to fill the gaps at lower levels.
Scenarios are predetermined; see the schedule below. The player with the least threat will get to select the deployment areas and have initiative. If both players have the same threat, roll off with the higher roll, choosing deployment areas, and having initiative.
Trophy and bragging rights for the winner of the tournament. In case of a tie, the winner will be determined by Tournament Points earned and strength of schedule.
