https://forces.flamesofwar.com/
Forces from any published Early War book will be accepted. Duplicate formations are not permitted.
**MISSIONS**
We will use the **Extended Battle Plans** method of generating missions from the April 28, 2026 More Missions packet.

Come prepared to play all mission types and against all armies.
**COMBAT COMMAND**
We will use **Combat Command** for tournament management, pairings and scorekeeping.
Please create an account before the event and take some time to familiarize yourself with the system:

**MATCHUPS & STANDINGS**
First-round matchups will be random. Subsequent rounds will use the Swiss system, and there will be **no repeat matchups**.
Standings will be determined first by **Victory Points**, followed by **wins**, then **strength of schedule**.
We will make an effort to avoid pairing players who traveled together against one another in the first round.
**PAINTING & MODELS**
Players are expected to bring a **fully painted army**. Models should be painted beyond primer, with the major details of the model appropriately painted. We're not looking for award-winning paint jobs—just armies that are finished and look good on the tabletop.
If you have a few models you're unsure about, please contact me before the event. The goal is to maintain a good standard for the tournament while being reasonable about it.
**Proxy models are discouraged.** We understand that there may be occasions when a player needs to substitute a model, but any proxy should be a reasonable representation of the model it is replacing and should not cause confusion for an opponent. If you are unsure whether a proxy is appropriate, please contact me before the event.
**ROUND TIMES & SLOW PLAY**
Rounds are **2½ hours**.
Players are responsible for monitoring the remaining time. Tournament staff will announce time intervals throughout each round, and a clock will be visible to track the time remaining.
Players should make every effort to complete their games. Most turns should be playable within approximately **10–15 minutes**.
Please use good judgment late in the round. If there is not enough time for **both players to complete a turn**, do not begin a new turn.
When time is called, players must immediately finish the action involving the unit currently being resolved. **No new turns may be started after time is called**, even if beginning that turn would immediately trigger a victory condition or Company Morale Check.
Repeated slow play may result in penalties or forfeiture of a match.
**TERRAIN**
Tournament-quality Flames of War tables will be needed and are greatly appreciated.
If you're attending and can provide a complete tournament-quality table, please contact me.
