Score:

- Battlefront scoring system
- Fully Painted = +1 (Minimum 3 colours + basing)
- Armylist on time + paid in advance = +1
- Tie-Breaker = least platoons lost, then most destroyed, then highest die roll.


Pairing:

We will be using swiss pairing.
If possible we will pair axis with allies in the first round, after that it’s pure swiss pairings (score, then platoons lost, then platoons destroyed).

We will be using the battleplan and More Missions matrix. The TO will roll for the mission number. You may choose a different battleplan each battle.

Price support:

Best overall general
Best general of other faction
Best Painted (Public vote)
Wooden Spoon

Battle:

1. Discuss terrain
2. Determine battleplans and consult the matrix.
3. Play the mission as written in the more missions.
4. Have fun! It’s a game of toy soldiers after all!
5. Disagreement during the battle is first resolved by checking the rulebook. If agreement can’t be reached, call the judge. His ruling is final.
6. Ensure you each play an equal number of turns.
7. Inform the organisation of the result. Please fill in score sheets with care so we don’t have any issues with results.
