Army Selection
Armies are 1000 points, and are selected as described below - this is NOT the usual organisation rules!
- All armies must be selected in a single detachment.
- All units are considered “Unique” so you may only have one of each data sheet,
- Named characters cannot be taken. No Magnus or Typhus on the table! 
- Legends CAN be taken however please be sensible and prepared to answer all questions about the units. 
All other normal restrictions for you army apply.
Please submit you army lists to nosferatu1001@gmail.com by the 29th November so they can be checked for errors. Please use Word, PDF or Excel so they can easily be checked. Make sure lists include the name of the detachment used, costs for each unit, who the Warlord is plus any character enhancements etc.
Painting and WYSIWYG
All models in your army must be fully painted and based to be used in Rapid Strike. By this we mean that as a minimum standard all models have at least 4 colours (excluding undercoat) applied to them in a consistent way. Bases should be textured and painted in some way. Please email if you're unsure if something meets these requirements. All models must be WYSIWYG
Scoring
Fixed objectives will not be in use - your forces are arriving too fast to have prepared the ground! 
Rapid Strike will be run using a slightly different positive scoring system.
Games will be standard 1000pt games with the following exceptions:
- A game will be considered a draw if the difference between the players scores is 5 points or less.
- Tournament points will be calculated by taking your score from the game and adding 0 for a loss, 10 for a draw, and 20 for a win, with the total being your tournament points for that game. For example if you score 64 points in game one and win, your score would be 84, if you drew 74 and a loss would score 64 TP.
The scores from each round will be added together to determine the placings for the event. In the case of a tie we look back at the record of your opponents and whoever faced the most difficult (i.e highest scoring) opponents will win the tiebreaker.
- Tables will be 4 x 4 feet, as 60x44”
Is too large for 1000 points. Deployment maps will be changed accordingly! 
Prizes
There will be awards for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, as well as an award for “best army”. There may be other spot prizes to be earned throughout the event for accomplishing particularly unlikely or impressive feats in game. See less
