RulesPack

All Armies must be painted with at least 3 colours, black and white do not count as a colour

Teams are picked at random by the TO with the view of trying to split the races up as evenly as possible.
Each team consists of 6 1.5K armies
The General of each team will be decided by a dice roll before deployment.
Each army however uses their own general for the basis of LD tests etc, the team general is simply there to make final decisions and do the general mission..

The Battle will last for 7 turns.
No VP's are scored by killing general's, capturing standards, taking table quarters.

The following Races can play (restrictions for all armies will follow below)

Orcs & Goblins
Beasts of Chaos
Chaos Dwarves (Ravening Hordes)
Ogres
Dwarves
Empire

Each 1.5 K army has to comply to the following restrictions

NO Terror Causers
NO more than 3 warmachines
NO more than 2 wizards
NO more than 2 chariots
NO more than 30 bases of shooting troops who can shoot over 20 inches

Objectives

Along the centre of the Battlefield are 3 objectives, these can be captured by any infantry unit of US5 and over. If there is no unit inside the objective at the end of the game, then no-one controls it.

The Objectives are worth 600 VP's each.

1) Idol of Gork - The power of the waaagh is strong , so strong that any wizard who miscasts within 24 of the Idol rolls on the WAAAGH miscast table instead of their normal table.

2) Count Olaf's Tower - The Dread is strong, the building causes Terror. Any unit who passes the test and takes the building is counted as causing terror as long as they are in the building.

3) Wandering Woods - The Woods cast TreeSinging at the beginning of every teams magic phase, this will be resolved by the TO.

The Missions

Each Team General will get their own secret mission, this is worth 500 VP's for it's completion

There are 6 extra scoring secret missions, 3 for each team to be dealt randomly amongst the players
They are listed below without the actual description as it is simply more fun to find out on the day what each one is. Each mission is worth 400VP's upon completion.

1) Rogue Unit
2) Tree Huggers
3) Assasinate
4) Shellshock
5) P***** as a Newt
6) March to Glory

In addition there are 4 gifts, 2 for each team, randomly handed out. The gifts must be allocated before deployment.

1) Gem of Chance - One hero ( a mage if able) can re-roll one enemy PD once per enemy magic phase
2) Gem of Courage - One unit can re-roll break tests  as though they had a BSB
3) Bouncing Banner - One unit gets a 4+ Ward Save against non magical ranged attacks
4) Boots of Loren - One Infantry unit (US5+) must make a march move right after deployment

The main aim of the game is to have fun, any players not attempting to have fun will be fed to the pub Squig!

Now, I know this is not entirely in the spirit, but I think perhaps a valid question....

What are the criteria for winning? Does the team win or will there be an individual winner, or are we all winners for not playing filth?

[Mike]

I'll definately be there as Ref and Chief pint taster.

Winning team who gets most VP's, gets the prizes...

Good man....

Going to Reading's Winter War the Day after so can't make this.

Will be representing OG at the Winter War though

Its using South Coast Gt Comp and Rules so will be a good bit of practice.

[Veldemere]

Pah, that's the day after, you can do both, it's like a 2 day tourney!

[fatolaf]

Exactly...
