1500 POINT TEAM TOURNAMENT
OVERVIEW
• Over the course of the day your team will play a total of 6 games, over three rounds. Each round you will pair up with a different teammate to take on another teams pairing. You may not play with the same teammate twice. You are free to decide which pair play together in a given round, but keep in mind that pair cannot play together again.
• Ex. Andy, Bob, Chuck and Dave form a team. In the first round Andy and Chuck form one team and Bob and Dave play another. In round two they see they are playing against a tough opponent in one game and have Dave and Chuck (their best two players) play that game, while Andy and Bob play the other. In the last round Andy and Dave must pair up and Bob and Chuck must as well.
• There are no rules for allies and such, so anything goes. Grey Knight can align with Daemons, Tyranids and Necrons, for example. That said, it would look better if there was a common theme thru the teams (identical basing, common accent color, etc.)
RULES
• The tournament will begin on Sunday, June 26th at 10:00 AM at Dragon’s Den. Punch and pie.
• Teams will consist of 4 players, each with a separate army. Teams should submit their team name, members and an army list for each army at least one week before the tournament. $40/team. 4-6 teams total.
• Armies will consist of 750 points using the following force organization chart
o 1 Headquarters
o 1-3 Troops
o 0-1 Elite
o 0-1 Fast Attack
o 0-1 Heavy Support
o Any choices that don’t take up a place in the Force Organization chart are to be used as per their rules in their respective codices, and are not affected by the restrictions stated above for other types of choice (Space Marine Command Squads, CSM Chaos Spawn and Summoned Daemons etc.)
• No Forge World/Imperial Armor units, players may still use a FW model to represent a unit from their codex.
• All GW FAQ’s apply.
• Special/Unique/Named characters may be used, provided their rules allow them to be used in armies of 1500 points or less.

In case anyone is concerned about turn out, here's is a list of ppl who have said they are interested in playing or have a team. If this has changed for anyone, let me know.

Justicar Jerome(Jody) -has a full team coming up from rhymes w/ fun.
Veyure (Greg) -said he has a full team already.
Canadin (Adam)
Termagant (Scott)
Timbo (Tim)-
Marc (not on forums, but indicated he will be joining)- all of the above said they would be interested at the tournament today, and had several ppl in mind already to add to teams.
Dusktiger (Mike)
Dan (not online)- have said they would play.

There is 14 ppl right there, and that could easily jump to 16-24. If anyone needs to reserve a spot b/c you can't make it to the Den, let me know and I can take care of sign up for you. Also if anyone can't find a team, you can just sign up individually and we can make a team out of singles.

Been waiting for this post. I'll head down to the Den to sign up asap (prolly Tuesday afternoon). Thanks Roland, looking forward to this as is my team.

Termagant is actually Scott, and yes, I am looking for a team. I can play Orks or Tyranids, whichever one the team thinks would be best.

Anyone who wants to join up with me (and others) PM plz.

ME: "Sorry about that Scott, I dunno what I was thinki..."
SCOTT: "IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU THINK!!!"

This is why I shouldn't post while tired.

So it looks like 4 teams.

Veyure- I need your team's lists.
Spamus/Selik (Team Righteous Fists)- I need your team's list.
Team Victorious Secret- I have all your lists.
Team Jerome- I have all your lists.

Looking forward to seeing the turnout on Sunday.

Ok I have almost everyone's list in, 3 points.

1) Anyone interested in ordering pizza or something for the lunch break?

2)Paint/Appearance Scoring sheet: Everyone just needs to pencil in Team 5, and place their score. Every player will be rating opposing TEAMS (not individual armies) on a 1-10 scale.

3)Scenario 2: Lay of the Land.
Replace "Deployment (Pitched Battle)" with "Deployment (Modified Dawn of War)"
To clarify, each TEAM will deploy a TOTAL of up to 1 HQ and 2 Troops, drawn from BOTH lists. So you might have a BA Librarian and 10 Slugga Boyz in a Trukk. My bad, won't happen again.

if the weather's nice on sunday, we can just park a couple of us who have suv's or trucks with drop down tailgates together outside and make it like a tailgate party lunch. im not above going a little hillbilly if the weather's nice and the tailgate's handy. but if anyone spills anything in/on my blazer, be warned; you will be beaten. physically. and possibly emotionally if you really make a mess.

SC/DT: Weather is supposed to be nice, and I know I want to get some air and stretch during most of the tournaments so far. I'd bring a BBQ if I had one:)

thats why i keep looking for a hidden-hitch bbq. i know they're out there, but i cant seem to find one or how much they cost. but you basically attach it to the back and it swivels out so you can cook and use the tailgate as a prep/serving table

They have them.... in Texas.

texas has 'anything' that runs on propane and/or burns meat.

There is no and/or. Anything that uses propane can legally be used as a BBQ in Texas.
