We're up to ELEVEN registered, two of which are early bird, with another four pending...
free points and a free t-shirt - no downside to the early bird!
did I mention that there was a less than a 10 point difference between the top five last year? - early bird can make a HUGE difference - it's the equivalent of getting turning one of your losses during the tourney where you only get three points, into a full point massacre win... think about it!

My goal this year is to not win the tournament!
By that I mean... I can help you guys with your list building...
I want to help you improve! (plz note if Shannon already have you list it is too late I will not modify it (I got enough already to do))
Normally when you seek advice on forum you don't know you will answer it.
Why I do that: Last year I fell in ''gamers'' love with your (well organize) gaming group/tournament and is normally the first of the new year!
I not a forum guy but I will answer and help you to make you list better If you need it ...
I have already send my list (if you ask me nicely I can send it to you)
My email is :
Bruno.Bouthillierchoquette/at/Gmail/DOT/COM ( /at/=@ and /DOT/=. )
My Tournament experience: -Kingston Nexus 2014 Best overall (28 players) -ND OPEN 2014 Best overall (48 players) -Adepticon single 28th (500 players) -Choas Ludik single 2014 Best overall (16 players (good players)) -Choas Ludik double 2014 Best general (40 players) -Da Boyz single 2014 6th (lost in final vs Tony Kopach)
Last word of advice: IF YOU LIKE PLAYING... ORGANIZING TOURNAMENT IS HARD AND FRUSTRATING (STUPID COMMENTS OF PEOPLE) SO BE NICE WITH SHANNON (YOUR DEDICATED ORGANIZER)... AND REGISTER AND SEND YOUR LIST AS EARLY AS YOU CAN!!!

You can choose your warlord from any of your detachments. The bonus to choosing it from your combined arms detachment is they get to reroll their warlord trait. For this tourney , Do we pick our warlord trait, or has that Been Changed?

Still pick it if I'm not mistaken, unless you're taking a special character as they have theirs given to them.

As per player pack - you choose and keep it for the entire tourney - no changeups, so make sure it's marked on your army list!

I'm making an executive decision that may piss some people off, make others happy, but in the end I have to do what I feel is right for the community here, and not just this tourney but all of our tournies throughout the year.
While Imperial Knights are a legal codex within the bounds of the game, their impact upon the balance of this game is significant, especially when one considers the affect of multiple knights, particularly within the Admantium Lance formation, which doubles the survivability of these superheavies with no downside or increased cost associated.
Therefore following ammendment is being made to our player pack for the tourney:
"Imperial Knight Detachments are legal for play within the tournament, however do NOT benefit from the Admantium Lance formation."
this SHOULD have been in the player pack to begin with, however I take responsibility for not having the foresight to do so. Anyone who has already submitted a list as such is still able to take the knights as per the imperial knight detachment, however rerolls on knights is beyond ridiculous. As will if anyone has already submitted a list and wishes to change their list because of this, feel free to send a new list with no penalty to your early bird status.
thank you for understanding and I apologize for any inconvenience.

From 5 knights, 3 with re-rolls, to just JUST 5 knights.... we shall call it BALANCE!!! Still not feeling super confident with the 30 VA 13/12/12 hull points, but at least there aren't 3++ and 4++ re-rolls on 60% of those hull points.

couple more hit the registration stage
as necrons get released the day after early bird closes, remember there's a week leeway for early bird if you're playing crons (given the new book is legal for the tourney you should have a chance to submit a list right?)

Good to know for Necron players, since I've got a list for the current codex, but the points part will all be wrong in a week!

I think the player pack says you have the option to use the old dex if you want.
