Modeling Rules

Assembly: Armies must be fully assembled and on the correct base sizes. Painting is optional.

Battle Ready Prize Draw: Armies painted to a Battle Ready standard (main areas painted with differentiated details, majority of details painted) are entered into a prize draw.

WYSIWYG Exceptions:

“Counts as” weapons are allowed if consistently applied across all units of the same type (e.g., all Guttrippaz in the army use Hackas, even if some are modeled with Stikkas).
Non-Games Workshop miniatures are permitted if on correct base sizes and similarly armed.
Conversions are encouraged but must approximate the original model’s size. Contact the Tournament Organizer for approval at least one week before the event.

Terrain Rules

Terrain will be set up according to the specific Daily event, with thematic adjustments to match each day’s theme:

Fire & Jade: Each player is provided with one small and one large terrain piece to place.
Sand & Bone: Defender picks from Terrain Group A (Large Wall, Small Fence) or Terrain Group B (Small Wall, Large Fence), with the attacker receiving the other.

Sportsmanship & Conduct
