Round Pairings(copy from the WTC rule pack)
● Team will be paired off against each other randomly in the first round and use the
“Swiss Chess” system from the 2nd round onwards.
● The captains from each team will work together to determine the individual pairings
of the players within their teams using the following method:
● Dice off until there is a winner. The winner gets to choose whether they are Team A,
or Team B in the process.
○ Team B captain nominates his/her first player and presents both the player’s
lists to the opposing captain.
○ Team A captain then nominates two (2) of his players that are potential
opponents for the player. He provides all 4 lists for the 2 players.
○ Team B captain chooses which player from the 2 that will play against the
player he first nominated. The one he does not choose remains on the table.
○ Team B captain will choose which table the match will be played on.
○ Once the first match up is determined, Team B captain will nominate 2 of his
remaining players, Team A captain will then choose one of those to face off
against the player left on the table from the 1st round pairings.
○ Team B captain continues to choose the table for each matchup.
○ This process continues until all 5 pairings have been done.
● All players across the entire tournament will play the same SR2016 scenario for a
given round. No scenario will be repeated.
● Table terrain will be set up in a slightly skewed fashion and follow the requirements
listed in Steamroller 2016.

Tournament Scoring(copy from the WTC rule pack)
● The team that gains 3 or more victories from the 5 games in a round is declared the
winner and receives one 1 tournament point. The losing team receives 0 points.
○ Each player that wins their game in a round is awarded a “Player Tournament
