Lists are due by 1159PM on OCTOBER 20th and to be submitted through BCP
As previously stated, the rules cutoff will be OCTOBER 15th. Any updates, FAQ's or rules commentaries will be ignored for the purposes of this GT ending 1159PM on OCTOBER 15th. Also, it would be easier to NOT update your app if you're using the GW website app after the 15th. This way you will still have the rules we are using
We are ok with kitbashing and proxying models. All models must somewhat match the silhouette of the model you are proxying. If you have models in question please email them to me at kyle@wickedcitygaming.com or message me directly on the discord.
A lot of players will have WSYIWYG models (weapons that are on the model vs what is on their profile) and naturally some wont. This is perfectly fine SO LONG AS EITHER:
-all the models in the unit have all of the same weapon
-the models that arent modeled correctly are EASILY and able to be QUICKLY identifiable.
If you have non-WYSIWYG models, you need to make it known at the start of the match and during the match as needed to ensure we do not have issues with mis-identification. TIP: paint a different colored dot on each of the bases of non-WYSIWYG models and have a reference of what those colored dots represent and have that available for yourself and your opponent.
-The tournament companion, rules commentary and dataslate updates are the chief reference for any FAQ's you may have as that will be almost entirely be what we use for reference (barring small discrepancies that we will go over below)
-Any ruling given by the TO's running the event is final
-SPACE MARINES and OATHES- we will be going by rules as written IE the detachments provided in the app as of now state they receive the +1 to wound. If GW FAQ's or changes this, so will we UNLESS it were to fall after OCTOBER 15th, in which case we will ignore those for the purpose of this GT.
-Models with sponsons- all parts of a vehicle are considered to be part of its hull. For those who have modeled their sponsons or equivalent where it would no longer fit through a gap it would normally be able to fit through, it would still be able to fit through that gap for movement purposes provided it doesn't end on top of a terrain feature that would cause it to violate the "wobbly model" rule.
-Models bases- We will be enforcing GW's update to all base sizes. This includes any models that previously did NOT have a base at all, but now do. Please refer to the tournament companion for any questions in those regards.
-Astra Militarum's Tempestus Aquillons deep strike- If a Tempestus Aquilon unit deep strikes and decides to utilize their servo-sentry rule to shoot in the movement phase, that unit is NO LONGER eligible to use the grenade strat in the subsequent shooting phase.
-Each terrain piece that has a ruin and a portion that is either not part of the ruin or a 2"< ruin, will be clearly defined with a line that will be spray painted on to it.
