WH 40K Summer League 2010! Begins 7/12/10!

40K Summer League 2010

-Gereon is a mysterious planet that holds a dangerous secret: An artifact that could change the destiny of the galaxy – an engine of destruction. The forces of Chaos already control this once-proud planet of the Imperium, and they know what slumbers here. Yet the forces of humanity are not silent, and are already moving to assault and retake Gereon for their own purposes. They are, however, ignorant to the planet’s secret, and unaware of what power they may imminently unearth. It is then up to the Zenos races to stop both humanity and the insane mutants from attaining this power, or risk allowing the galaxy to be utterly destabilized . An Emperor Titan is up for grabs. Who will seize its mighty power?

-This league will be an escalation campaign style, starting at 1000 points and ending with 2000. The league will begin July 12th and the entry fee will be $12. Here is the break down week by week:

- The point costs are point maximums, not requirements. Players who want to play smaller games should feel free to do so. There will be no benefit for playing large games.

- There will be weekly updates on the lore of the league and what is going on with the Engine of Destruction.

- All the scenarios will be straight from the book with these limitations:
The first 2 weeks of the league will be played using the City Fight rules to make the smaller point games more interesting.
The last 2 weeks of the league will exclude the Dawn of War deployment rules, to make the higher point games fairer for certain armies and to avoid confusion.

-The Army lists are completely open and do not need to be handed in. The players must have a written copy of the list on them when they play the game, just in case there are discrepancies.

-Call ahead to reserve a gaming table for yourself and your opponent to guarantee a space. Monday nights will be the official league night, guaranteeing most of the store’s play space for 40K players to schedule your games. Games can be played during the weekdays but cannot start any later then 7pm. All games will last 6 turns unless TIME is called. Sunday games should be scheduled in two shifts, 12-3pm & 3-6pm.

-All League games must be played in the store.

-If you can’t attend a scheduled game, you must notify your opponent 3 hours in advance to avoid default. If you don't, your opponent will receive an automatic win. A league contact sheet will be posted and sent out to our mailing list.

-Models must at least be primed; all units must be represented by an appropriate model/s. If there is something in your army that is not WYSIWYG, you must inform your opponent.

-As new 40K Supplements come out, we will incorporate them into the league. You MUST have a copy of the rules with you at the game (GW Standard).

-The League will end with an Apocalypse game on October the 10th, open to all players in the league. The game’s first round will begin at 12pm; doors open at 10am. The game will be called at 5:30pm that day.

-The prize support for this league will be a little different than normal, as there will be more prizes offered per person rather than the bulk of prize support going to a few individuals. Prizes will be given as follows:
-First place, Second place, Third place, Most games played, Most opponents played, Sportsmanship.
