The actual Big game at big game 2018

It's taken me a bit to create this, but all of you should have a blast.

1.  This will happen at around 5:30 on Saturday.

2.  You will need a 35pl list of the most broken, cheesy, unfair things you can come up with.

3.  This fight will happen on the special board that will be apparent when you get to the big game.

4.  I'm not expecting this game to go more than 2 rounds or about 2 hours.

5.  There will be a victor at the end of it.

The 35pl list that you will be able to create will have the following exceptions to it......  Nothing that has the keywords titanic, questor imperial(either faction) or any of the various transports, flyers, or tanks.  All other things can be done within the 35pl restriction. Each player will have 3 command points available to play with.  There will be no reserves, or teleporting, phasing or whatever else specially lets you get onto the boards any other way than through the portals.

Multiple special characters can be used, but only 1 per army, i.e. There can be multiple Guillimans out there, just not in 1 person's list.  Dreadnoughts can be taken.

This is how it will go.

At 5:30 all players on table 4's, (or their last game was on a 4) will be able to set up on the special board within 24" of that respective portal color,(this will be obvious when you get there).  Chaos will be on the stairs facing and Imperials will be on the door facing. Table 3's will deploy next, then 2's, then 1's.  Games that are still being played on these tables can still go on while another table is deploying, i.e. If table 1 is still in round 2 while table 4,3,2 is deploying, gameplay will continue until it's that tables turn.  This is important because if you want to get a later game in on Saturday before 5:30 we will put you on a smaller number table so you can get as much of it done before the main event.

The first turn will be done by the team that has the most victory points in the map campaign. So getting in fights during January and the big game itself are important.  The points will be updated as games are finished during the weekend, halfway through games will be 1/2 pointed if there is a stoppage by the time this event happens.

The victory conditions are simple....  Imperials: kill Eth Mongul, Chaos: don't let that happen.

I am available on the forum, Facebook, PM, IM, phone call, or at the store for answers to questions.

  1. Quick question: if I field a battle forged army in this 35 points, and I have a character that grants me two extra command points if I am battle forged, can I get 5 command points?

  2. Only 3 can be had in this game. I have to go with that ruling in all case scenarios. Sorry.
