Tournament Rules:
Army Composition:
Each player can select one German / Hungarian (Red) and one Soviet force (Blue) at 80 points. If a player takes both a Red and Blue force they will be awarded an additional victory point at the start of the tournament. Soviet forces must only be taken from the Bagration or Berlin book, German players may select any book. These lists must conform to the standard Flames of War army composition rules. Every player's army must be fully painted though historical accuracy is not necessary within colour schemes. Miniatures however must be WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) i.e., each model should be constructed to accurately depict the type of vehicle, infantry or field gun that it is intended to represent on the battlefield and no proxying is permitted with armaments etc. No Late War Leviathans
Please note that due to our position as a high street retail store, we do not permit the German swastika to be displayed on any models or accessories. We appreciate that Flames of War is a World War II strategy game, but we hope our players understand the controversial and offensive nature of the symbol regardless of historical accuracy.Please ensure if your models have any swastika emblems these are covered in some way. We will insist they are removed from play if this is not followed.
Army list - Army lists should be submitted before the 1st of May for verification. However there is no penalty incurred for missing this deadline.
Tournament:
The tournament will be simple matched-play meaning there is no narrative aspect and thus it is possible to play against the same nation as yourself, However where possible a red vs blue match will be played. If players with two lists are matched then they will roll off to see who picks what list first, the opposing player will then pick the opposite list e.g Player 1 scores higher and elects to play their blue list so Player 2 must play their red list.
There will be three rounds over the day of swiss-style pairings. The first round will be drawn randomly and thereafter players will be paired by score.
Missions:
Missions will be rolled for once both players have declared their stance as either Attack, Defend or Manoeuvre. The tournament will use the expanded missions from the February 2024 pack unless a new set is officially released.
Scoring:
Scoring will be based on the victory points table as per the Flames of War rulebook. Points scored will be the first tiebreaker, followed by NET points, followed by strength of schedule.
Sportsmanship:
We expect all players to generally behave in a sporting manner. Pre-measuring is allowed in Flames of War and thus we advise communication as you go along is key to avoid disagreements – e.g. “are you happy that this is hull down?” when positioning in the movement phase is better than “I intended that to be hull down” in the opposition's shooting phase. Unseemly gamesmanship and outright cheating will of course not be tolerated.
Awards:
There will be awards for the following:
First Place
Second Place
Third Place
Best Painted Army
