Full Version: Idea for a 2 day tournament

I was after some feedback on the following for a 2 day tourney. This is just a concept and was wondering if it would work.

Each player has 2 X 1250 point armies each following the standard force organisation chart. These armies are fixed and units cannot be swapped. Each player effectively has 2 armies of the same point value.

Day 1 – 3 games X 1250 points – players can choose which army selection at time of learning mission and deployment.

Day 2 – 2 games X 2500 points (both 1250 point armies combined to make one force).

Sounds interesting - only confusing issue I see if force org etc - if both the 1250 are legal armies will that make the 2500 legal (i.e still 2HQ, 3 elite, 6 troops etc) Will they need to be built so the 2500 is still legal at same time as 1250s are legal ?) i.e if I take four troops in one 1250 does that mean I am limited to 2 in other to ensure only 6 in 2500 ?

This comes down to list building and is not insurmountable but may need a little more time for lists to be reviewed for legality.

When you thinking Owen ?

i would deffinately be interested in this as i mentioned.

i think that the 2nd day the forces combine as two forces working together so that you effectively get twice the number of slots for legality purposes.

Hi Alun

Good point about 2 legal 1250 point list does not equal a legal 2500 point list. armata_PDT_37.gif

Would probably have to build it in so that each 1250 point list is legal and combined 2500 points still make a legal list. Will give this some more thought and discussion.

I am just thinking ahead for Northern Heresy which I would like to make a 2 day event so that would be in July.

Just tossing around a few ideas. I seem to come up with ideas, just not all of them good, so thanks for the feedback. Keep it coming.

Hmmm 6 heavies, elites or fast attack? Let me think on this.
