Doubles Rules
Each player on the team must play a different faction from the other.
Doubles armies must be constructed so that no Battleline or Dedicated Transport unit appears more than 6 times in any combination of two lists, and no other unit appears more than 3 times in any combination of two lists. Doubles armies may use up to two enhancements each, but the enhancements chosen must be unique. No doubles lists may repeat enhancements.
Rules for Doubles Games
• Doubles teams are treated as a single player for the purposes of gaining, generating, and refunding Command Points.
• Army Rules and Detachment Rules, auras, psychic powers, and other abilities that benefit friendly units will only apply to the player’s own 1000 point army, even if they share a faction or keywords with their teammate.
• Stratagems, abilities, powers, and actions that are limited to once per player per phase, turn, etc are instead limited to once per team.
• Teammates may not embark in each other’s transports, benefit from each other’s buffs, or attach Leaders to each other’s units.
• Teammate’s armies are considered friendly otherwise, and are not affected by auras, powers, or other abilities that only apply to enemy units.
Judging : If players have a rule dispute that requires a judge decision, all relevant information may need consulting. To save time a roll off or a rules as intended decision could be made in the moment. Ask questions ahead of time where applicable for best results.
Modeling
1. There is no paint requirement although always encouraged, we want to welcome everyone to play, including new players or armies.
We won't be doing paint score for this event to help folks stay experimental and not be required to run only what they have completed to fully painted level.
2. Base size rule is only that it must be no bigger or smaller than the original base size it came with or its current version. We don't want players not coming because they haven't rebased their armies from 25mm to 32mm, nor if they have the original square bases (daemon players).
3. Doors open at 11, we roll dice at11:30, it will be a long day of gaming with 2 hour 45 minute, rounds we need to be on time, please provide enough time to get settled and registered before we start at 11:30 am.
4. If a player wishes to use chess clocks at any given time in a match, if they have the clock available to use they may apply it to the game. If applied mid game divide the remaining time.

5. 100% of the entry fees will go back into the prize pool, the more players the more prizes will be awarded!
6. WYSIWYG is not required. All that is asked is that your models are not confusing to your opponent. You should be able to discern a sergeant equivalent in a unit, and distinguish one unit from the other that are the same type. Being organized and distinguishable with who holds what powers and wargear etc. "Counts as" are respectable if it is a legitimate model on a qualifying base size. Send a message with any questions if your questioning if you can use something.
7. 3d Printed Models will be accepted but only if based and painted and not more than 25% of your army.
