Team Pairing Rules

● Teams will be paired off against each other randomly in the first round and use the “Swiss Chess” system from the 2nd round onwards.

● A team will never be matched against the same team twice.

● The captains from each team will work together to determine the individual pairings of the players within their teams using the following method:

Each team will have 3 Streamroller sheets to represent the three players on the team. Each team (referred to as Team A and Team B) will meet at the set of three tables (Table 1, Table 2, and Table 3).

Team A will choose one of their players and place the sheet face down on Table 1. Team B will choose one of their players and place the sheet face down on Table 3.

Teams will exchange the remaining sheets for their players.

The sheets on Tables 1 and 3 are revealed.

Team A will choose one of Team B players remaining to face the team A player on Table 1 and place the sheet face down on table 1. Team B will chose one of Team A players to face the Team A player on Table 3 and place the sheet face down on table 3.

Remaining sheets will be placed face down on table 2.

All remaining sheets are revealed.

● All players across the entire tournament will play the same SR 2023 scenario for a given round. No scenario will be repeated.

● Table terrain will be set up following the requirements listed in Steamroller 2023.

Tournament Scoring

● The team that gains 2 or more victories from the 3 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 Point”.

● The total “Player Tournament Points” a team has accumulated will be used as the 1st tie-breaker.

● Each team’s strength of schedule will be calculated and will be used as the 2nd tie- breaker.

● The number of control points each team earns across all 3 games for a round is also recorded and is used as the 3rd tiebreaker.

● The number of army points each team destroys across all 3 games for a round is also recorded and is used as the 4th tiebreaker.

● A team receiving a Bye will get 2 “Player Tournament Points”, and 3 Control Points and 30 APD for each player on the team.

● In the event of a team member dropping before the end of the tournament, the team may continue to play. However, the team will receive an auto-loss on the table they do not have a player present to play.

Team Composition

● Teams may field the same armies. However, teams are limited to only one duplicate leader per team.

The Sussy Shuffle

● Each team will have a once-a-day team Feat they may use before a round begins. A judge must be present at the table when a team Feats. After all sheets at the tables are revealed, a team may use the Sussy Shuffle Feat to move their players to a different table and opponent. After movement, the judge will write “Feat” at the top of each of the players’ Steamroller sheets on the team that Feated and initial.

● Team A can only use the Sussy Scuffle feat if Team B has not. Team A can never counter-feat Team B.
