Warhammer 40,000 Doubles Tournament

The Warhammer 40,000 Doubles Tournament is a fun matched play event for a team of two. Comrades in arms must join forces, pool resources and fight side by side for honour, glory, and the spoils of war.

ARMY CONSTRUCTION

Each player on a team will select an army up to 1000 points using the rules as laid out under Muster Army in the Grand Tournament 2021 Mission Pack as well as from the Core Rulebook.

When building your army, use all the most up to date Warhammer 40,000 rules found in the following Games Workshop and Forge World publications with the cut off date being 1 week before the event:

• Codexes
• Warhammer 40,000: The App
• Campaign Books
• Chapter Approved: Grand Tournament Mission Pack 2021
• White Dwarf
• FAQs, errata, and beta rules found via www.warhammer-community.com/faqs

Each team member will need to fill out and submit a Battle-Forged Army Roster as detailed on page 251 of the Core Rulebook. Please bring 7 copies of your list to the event - one for you to reference, one for the Tournament organisers and one for each of your five opponents.

Army lists should be presented in an easy to read format (such as army lists exported from BattleForge in Warhammer 40,000: The App), including all relevant wargear and unit upgrades.

Take into account the following points when constructing your armies:

• Players cannot share points
• Reinforcement points apply to a player, not to the whole Team. For example, if player A has 200 reinforcement points set aside, player B does NOT have access to them.
• An individual player’s Faction may be different from their teammates. There is no requirement for the two armies to be historically able to “ally” with each other. You should use this as an opportunity to try and find new and unique combos and abilities that you wouldn’t normally be able to do! .
• The same Datasheet cannot be included in both players' armies. Eg. Elliot and Katie have both chosen to attend with Space Marine armies. Elliot has chosen to take two Predators as part of his 1000 points. This means Katie cannot take a predator within her 1000 point army.
• Any Unique units can only be included once in a team.
• Each player chooses a Warlord for their individual 1000 point army.
• Each Relic and Warlord Trait is unique and can only be taken once per team.

Doubles Gameplay Rules

With there being two players on each side, some aspects of a mission or gameplay will change. Here are the key changes to keep in mind:

• During your games, change all references of “player” to “team”. So anything that is once per player is once per team etc.
• Each team has a pool of Command Points. These Command Points are spent as a team.
• The same Stratagem cannot be used more than once during the same phase.
• Psychic Focus: As each psychic power can be attempted only once per turn, this would also apply to the whole Team.
• Deployment: During deployment teams alternate deploying, and each team deploys two units (one per player) to speed up set up.
• Teams will select their Secondary Objectives as a team. You should select one person from each team to be the overall Warmaster for the team. If at any point during the game, the team cannot decide in what order to carry out actions, the Warmaster has the final say on the order of events.
