Registration and cost of the TournamenT

This tournament is a fun way to promote our hobby. The cost for the 40K tournament is $10.00 payable in cash at registration on the day, but an e-mail to reserve a spot must first be sent to misterwaugh@hotmail.com. An e-mail confirming that you have been registered will be sent back to you. If you have a spot reserved and don’t attend without giving reasonable notice, you will be barred from future events. Please inform us so that your spot can be given to someone else.

​Note
:  Please note that there is a separate $20.00 charge to enter the Salute convention on Saturday (payable at the door, or $30.00 for the full weekend).  Therefore, actual cost is $30 if a three day pass wasn’t purchased or you are not a Trumpeter Society member.  Please note the fees will be used only for prize support and hall rental.

There is open gaming after the tournament and other games to see during the convention:

Missions and Army ListS

A mission package with more details will be made available by Adam Waugh prior to the event. 

Army lists are due by Monday, April 8th, 2019, and they should be submitted to misterwaugh@hotmail.com.   You may change your army list up until the submission deadline. Everyone meeting this deadline will be awarded bonus points to your overall sportsmanship score, anyone changing their list after the deadline will have points deducted. I will accept army lists in the following formats:

      • Microsoft Word/PDF  ***heavily preferred***
      • Plain text/RTF
      • Microsoft Excel
      • ​Army Builder  ***HTML or text only, I do not have AB myself and my eyes are getting real squinty***

You must use the same army for each game, and it must not vary from the list you submitted by the deadline. The 8th edition set of rules along with the latest codex/supplement/dataslate and FAQ/Errata for your given army must be used to create your list.

Bring at least five copies of your army list, preferably typed. Hand written army lists are difficult to read and this increases the chance of scoring errors.  Stats for individual units and wargear, plus descriptions of special rules, etc., would be further appreciated by opponents without access to your codex/supplement/dataslate.

And if you do not have a display board for your army, you should have a transport tray.

What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG)

If a model is armed with an item, it must be shown on the figure. Models for army list choices that are not available must be converted. If you are in any way in doubt about whether your conversion or scratch built piece might not be acceptable please contact us as early as possible before the tournament. We don’t want someone to show up with something they can’t use!

You may use non-Games Workshop models in this tournament, but they must still be WSIWYG as best as possible. 
Your army does not have to be painted, but must be fully assembled. Fully painted armies are encouraged and you will not be able to gain painting points if your army is not painted. If you did not paint your entire army you may still get full appearance scores towards your overall score but you will not be eligible to win the award for best painted.
