Hey guys!
I’m pleased to announce the first 40k league at Redditch Wargaming Society!!
THE LEAGUE IS COMPLETELY FREE IS FREE TO ENTER!!!
LEAGUE STARTS ON 7/MAY
The premise:
Points: 1850pts!
Pick a core codex – whatever codex you choose week 1 you will be obliged to stick with that codex throughout the league and play-offs
Army Lists - can people please submit there army list before the night of the 7th of May you can hand it in on paper or PM me here.
Army List Changes - ONCE during the league you can change your army list, there is no pts limit to the amount you can change the list, but changes must from the same primary/ally codex.
Allies – Allies are being used, but they are optional, similar to the core codex once you choose to use allies you are obliged to stick with that choice for the rest of the league. Using your army change, allies can be dropped in favour of a pure primary army, but if you decide to use allies in the play-offs (another free army change is permitted) you must go back to using your original allies choice. If allies have not been used before, you're free to use the Allies Matrix.
Fortifications – are in full effect, choose are per the rulebook
Missions – missions will be selected from the core rules
Scoring – there will be a 3-1-0 Group Points system in use
Win the mission = 3GPs
Mission drawn – 1GP
Lose – 0GPs
Winning the Mission: If you win the mission as per the rulebook you gain 3GPs (This means winning on Primary and Secondary objectives combined)
League Bonus points:
Table your opponent +1 GP
If the mission is drawn on Victory Points as per the rule book or if you lose the mission as per the rulebook, but you win secondary (Firstblood, Warlord, Linebreaker) you get +1GP (winner doesn't get any bonus points)
EG the Relic mission, you win by getting Firstblood and capture the relic (4VPs), your opponent gets linebreaker and warlord (2VPS), so you win the mission giving you 3pts towards the league, while your opponent won secondary giving them 1pt towards the league.
League Format – 2 groups of 5+ players will be randomly drawn at some point before the first game (probably a week or so before), If everyone could then try to find a player from your group to play ASAP and once everyone has played each other at least once, your group will be decided.
Who progresses from each group? The top 2 players on total group points will progress to the knockout rounds using the scoring system above, you play each player from the group you're in once.
Missions:
Before each game, randomly role from the standard missions and various deployments from the rulebook IE Missions: Crusade, Purge the Alien, Big Guns, Scouring, Emperors Will and the Relic, deployment being Vanguard, Hammer and Anvil and Dawn of War.
Submitting Results:
Please post your results as soon as possible after the game in this thread: http://forum.redwarsoc.com/showthread.php?tid=1509 so the league table can be updated as quickly as possible (usually on a thursday to give time for results submissions and any questions that may arise after the game).
So there we have it!
