back by popular demand we're going to have another Great Crusade tourney!
Saturday May 13th at Kingston Gaming Nexus
$15 entry fee
9:30 AM - Dice Roll - sign up at 9 AM.
this is a 1,250 point tourney. There is no painting requirement. Four games throughout the day.
the only method of list building is a SINGLE COMBINED ARMS DETACHMENT. That's right, no formations, no double CAD no decurions!
no superheavies or Gargantuan Monstrous Creatures allowed
so 1-2 HQ, 2-6 troops, 0-3 fast attack, 0-3 elites, 0-3 heavies, 0-1 fortifications, 0-1 Lord of war (character NON PRIMARCHS Lords of War only)
As well you MUST include as your warlord a named special character from your relevant army book. It is their great crusade! So it's about this character's personal retinue of awesome they are bringing along for their personal crusade.
(ie: if you play tyranids you're going to have to include either deathleaper, Old one eye, or the swarmlord in your list and they must be your warlord)
Schedule: (90 minute games)
Registration: 9 AM Game One: 9:30 - 11 AM Game Two: 11:15 - 12:45 PM Lunch: 12:45 - 1:30 Game Three: 1:30 - 3:00 PM Game Four: 3:15 PM - 4:45 PM Game FIVE: 5 PM - 5:20 PM - BOSS FIGHT!!!!!!!

Magnus sad. lol just kidding i was thinking how horrible it would be to sit there and see him on the other side of the table.
In all honesty one of my favorite tournaments of the year (then again all of them are one of my favorites lol)

For the Warlord with the "special name" does this include a model that has the UNIQUE trait next to its name. As in for Harlequin's a solitaire is a UNIQUE model but does not have a "name" per say?

I thought they had to be named characters last year but in all honesty it'd remove a bunch of armies from the mix right off the bat. Might be worth looking at again or getting a ruling from Shannon.

Well the Solitaire is "named" in the fluff, he's a lone dude there's only ever one at a time.

So what defines a named character then? Is the avatar a named character? Are the Phoenix lords (there's support to say they're not the original lords just dudes in fancy armour)? And on top of that I can guarantee you that the 145 point Solitaire who dies to bolter is not all he's cracked up to be.
