Structure and Points: Division Members will play a 'Home and Away' with POINTS accumulating during League play to determine seeding. During the tournament portion, the total points accumulated in a head to head best of 3, determines who advances. SO EVERY POINT MATTERS. Battle Scores can be accumulated via: Routing your opponent, Killing the Demon, Killing the ‘Standard Bearer’ and Collecting Stones.

Points are awarded as Follows:

Routing Your Opponent: 5 Points

Stones: 6 Points - 1 per ANY quality Stone. You can over-loot in case units die while carrying them, but 6 Stones/Points is the capped Score.

Killing the enemy Impressive: 4 Points

Killing the Standard Bearer: 3 Points, Players will declare their ‘Standard Bearer’ at the start of the battle. This unit will loot and carry the team’s battle standard (cart flag) into battle the entire match. You DO NOT have to loot the flag when they are killed.

Killing the Demon: 4 Points

Killing the enemy Leader: 2 Points

We will do 2 Leagues of 6 Players evenly divided roughly by skill level and warband choice. Everyone plays whoever, whenever, in a 'home and away.' Top 4 seeds receive a bye, while the lower seeds do not. The grand finale will be a best of 5.

Map and Demon Selection: We will be using a simple 'veto' system with the Dice Maiden. The 'Visitor Team' (LEFT listed player on Toornament) will be able to adjust the Map OR Scenario by UP TO 10 points in either direction. If they are satisfied with the Map/Scenario rolled, then they may freely select the Demon instead. The ‘Home Team' will then be able to adjust the Map OR Scenario by UP TO 10 points in either direction. If they are satisfied with the Map/Scenario rolled, then they may freely select the Demon instead and over-ride the visitor (had they picked the demon).

Elimination Tournament: The format will be a Home-Away-Home match, with the total cumulative score determining the winner. The Home Team (Higher Seed) will be able to ban a single Hero/Leader unit, which includes Born Leader versions, but not Henchmen if a LGT Hero is selected. They may also elect to defer the ban to match 3, if they so choose. In match 2, the visitor will now be the 'Home Team,' and may ban a hero and will veto second. No bans are allowed in match 3, unless it was deferred.

All Nobles and Market maps are in play, but deployments are limited to the pinned screenshot under Rules. All Special Maps except Library and Temple will be used as well.

Settings: Turn timer - 90 Seconds. Backtracking - 2. Rout Threshold – 35%. Deployment Timer – None. Gameplay – NONE – THIS TURNS OFF ALL SPECIAL MAP FEATURES (Acid Pools, Magic Effects etc). Set the Secondary Objective to Wyrdstone Rush - this is just to allow an easier Stone Count when a screenshot is taken at the end of the match.
.
Consumables: 1 Purple Consumable per unit, the Leader MUST carry the Impressives. The Maiden can obviously carry her own (what a clever girl!). UNDEAD ONLY: Heroes/Leader can carry an extra potion EACH (so 2 max per hero!) for the henchmen. All units can use consumables on whoever is desired, except the LEADER MUST USE THE SECOND CONSUMABLE ON THE IMPRESSIVE (He cannot use both on himself). You can use any looted consumables from corpses or chests. Anyone can use unconsumed items, like Mordheim Map, Focus and Rosary.

War Bands: Players will make a Rank 10 Warband that is composed of at least: 1 Leader, 1 Born Leader, and 1 Impressive. Players must then have at least 3 unique Hero types, which can include Lad's Got Talent. These requirements are for the Elimination Tournament Bans during match 3. Warbands are locked to only their own original units with these exceptions: Wolf Priest - Mercenaries and Witch Hunters, Smuggler - Sisters, Doomweaver - Cult, Poison Wind Globadier - Skaven, Undead get no DLC units. The team will consist of 1 Leader, 2 Heroes, an Impressive and 3 Henchmen. Players will then make 5 substitute 'Heroes/Leaders' and 3 substitute Henchmen. A second, substitute, Impressive build counts as 2 substitute Heroes when building a team.
Maximum Match Length: The matches must be concluded in under 2 hours. This is a 7 vs 7 and objectives should be on the battle field, not stuck in a house somewhere. If you let your opponent kill the demon, loot 7 stones and then defend in a house, you lose 10-0 after 2 hours. If BOTH players agree to extend the match, then the match will be extended (it might take time to move around a large map). I intend for this to be a 'soft rule' and hopefully it never comes in to play. You get the point.
.
Routing: Players may announce in the chat their intention to rout, once below the threshold, and avoid waiting until the actual test. The currently acting unit must be allowed to complete their turn prior to actually routing.

Disconnects: If a Disconnect occurs during play, a score will be calculated as follows: Kills are 1 point each, Stones are 1 point Each, Demon and Standard Bearer Kills are still 3 points each and Impressive kill 4. If the DEMON killed one of your opponent’s units, THE POINT IS STILL ADDED INTO THE TALLY! Add up the score then divide in half. If any player has a score above 6 then the match counts as played. However, if nobody scores above 6 then the match will not count as 1 of the 3, BUT the half-score will carry over in regards to a final score!

Tiebrakers: If the score is tied after 3 matches, the winner will be whoever routed the opponent more. In League play, if the score is tied, seeding will be based off of head to head results.
