League – Warhammer 40K August to October 2024

• Both your 2,000 point main pool, and your 1,750 point deployed army must be legal.
• You must provide your chosen 2,000 point list to us before the League starts.
• You need to provide all the models for your chosen army.
• Painted armies are preferred, but not mandatory at this stage (current GW rules mean painted armies gain an extra 10 points though).
• 3rd party models are permitted, as are proxies, as long as they are reasonably close to the model they are supposed to be.
• Base sizes MUST be correct.

• You must be familiar with playing Warhammer: 40,000 (10th edition) and with your chosen army.
• The league will use the Games Workshop game pack which is current at the start of the league – all games will use the same game pack, even if an update is released mid-season.
• You need to be able to commit to playing the required matches (one every two weeks – see below for dates.)
• Any matches must be played at The Vault Gaming Hall, and declared as a league match prior to starting to qualify.
• We expect all players to conduct themselves in a sporting manner, preferably agreeing any disputes between themselves where possible.
• If players are unable to reach an agreement themselves, then adjudication may be made by a staff member, or an experienced third party (if agreed by both players).
• Any such decisions will be considered final once gameplay continues.
• When a match has been declared over by both players, the result will be locked in.
• Players must be aged 13 or over.

Every match played earns points:

• Three points are scored for a win.
• Two points are scored for a draw.
• One point is scored for a loss.

If a player does not turn up for a scheduled game without giving sufficient notice, it counts as a loss to them, and a draw to the opponent. A date and time should be arranged during the two-week window period which suits both players.

Individual game scores will also be recorded and used as a tie-breaker in the event of two players scoring the same overall.

Players will have a two-week window during which to play each game. It is up to them to arrange a suitable date and time to do so.

We recommend playing your games on our Wednesday evening Warhammer club nights, but you are free to arrange them at any time which suits both players.

We are happy to open up outside of our regular opening hours to accomodate league games.

All official league games are included in the entry cost, whenever they are played.

In addition to these games, players are welcome to arrange and play “friendlies” using whatever armies you choose on Wednesday nights – these are also included in your entry fee if you are not a club member.
