Army rosters

Army rosters will be submitted by the players to BCP in CLEAR format, list deadline is Thursday 24.7.2025 at 18:00 hrs. Lists will be published when all lists have been submitted to BCP and have been checked. A late submission of the list will result in the forfeiture of Battle Ready Points for each game in the tournament.

All terrain and gaming mats are the property of organizers and players so cleanliness is expected. If any terrain or mats are destroyed or damaged due to negligence the player responsible is expected to cover the expenses.

2000 pts Strike Force armies. Using the Latest GT pack and Battle Points (0-100). Tiebreakers as follows: WINS / BATTLE POINTS / WINS SOS

Rules cut off date is Saturday 19.7.2025. Rules releases published after this time will not be in use.
The results of the games are submitted into the BCP. It is recommended to use the BCP website, the functionality of the application is questionable to say the least.
First round pairs drawn, followed by Swiss pairing (wins / random)
Armies must be painted and based (Battle Ready), figurines should be as WYSIWYG as possible. Conversions are allowed, but the conversion should be descriptive. If you are unsure whether miniatures in the army are playable, send a message to TO before the tournament! Failure to meet Battle Ready standards will incur the loss of Battle Ready points.
Terrain will be WTC medium. Table layouts will be published at a later date. Players will adjust the terrain after their games if needed using terrain maps provided by the TOs.
The tournament uses the WTC FAQ to resolve unclear situations. Army specific FAQs in use.
The tournament requires everyone to behave well and be gentlemanly!
Time management is the responsibility of both players, games must end within the round time. The use of a chess clock is allowed, but not mandatory. If a chess clock is used, then WTC clock rules are in use. If either player requests the use of a chess clock, a clock must be used, the player requesting the use of a chess clock must be able to provide the chess clock. If a player has repeated problems with timekeeping, a sanction may be incurred.
Players may ask for time extension from the TO. Any games resolved with a time extension, will be resolved with a static board state.
