I’m for allowing the new books. Just as long as there aren’t a lot of “got yah” moments. given no one would have seen anything in the supplement wouldn't everything in it be a gotcha?

Now that said i assume the strat would be the worst for gotch ya moments as we dont know what is in there. hell there might even be a 1 cp for a dread to fire twice or something. lol omg that would be too gross i almost hope thats not in there. (almost)

Eldar are the Eldar of this edition.
That said, Iron Hands already look outrageously powerful based on the previews we've seen. Vehicles with -1 damage, a 5++, a 6+++, that can potentially regenerate 9 wounds per turn?
Boy, I'd kill for half of this stuff for my Iron Warriors. Feels bad man.

Just a check for the rules.
I know that stuff like the main warlord trait, the first relic, dynasty/Chapter and so on are locked but what about the psychic powers and relics/extra warlord traits etc bought via CP?
Do we select them before each game or do we chose them at the start of the tournament and stick with said selection?

just re read through the mission rules from Shannon's post.
"Warlord traits and psychic powers are chosen game by game, so you can customize based on what's best for your team."

Only keywords and specialist detachments need to be declared as part of list creation.
Warlord traits (and which model is warlord), relics (and which models are carrying relics), psychic powers (and C'Tan powers), etc are all declared before deployment but after figuring out the mission and what you're up against.

So to further mix things up for this year, we're going to have a split between base rulebook missions and eternal war chapter approved.
So good idea to bring both books with you to answer any mission questions (especially the chapter approved ones which may not be as familiar)
you will not need maelstrom cards at all for this tournament.

Are we talking 2017 or 2018 Chapter Approved for this?

2018
I'll have missions printed out as well to be used... but the most recent Chapter Approved is going to be the one I'm using.

Just re read the Tournament rules. I thought the painting was 50%... Its going to be a fun three days. yup... but three colour minimum, so just get SOME colour on there, doesn't have to be 100% finished models if you can't get there but you know... you should...lol All tournies are going to be 50% painted minimum with the exception of the two "champs" tournies which will be 100%, so this one and club champs. (albeit this one is only 1k)

I was aiming for 100% finished but it's looking like three colour minimum is the more realistic target now for obvious reasons. Hopefully next tourney I attend I can have a fully painted force to show off.
