only restriction I put in currently was 2 detachments.... was anticipating rule of three would still apply...
but what are thoughts on this?

rule of 3 sounds good to me... but im biased cause my list has 3 of the same datasheet in it.

Rule of 3, please!
I need that Linebreaker Bombardment in my life.
Also: Fallen.

I mean I'd rather see the tournament stick to the table but I'm fine going either way.
3x detachments and 3 of each data sheet
Or
2x detachments and 2 of each data sheet.
The game designers put in a little bit of thought in terms of the balance for match play at different point levels based o the table.

Yeah, IIRC correctly you don't get 3 detachments and rule of 3 until 2k point, it's rule of 2 from 1000 to 1999
EDIT: Also I'm going to point out the annoying typo in the OP that says this tournament is scheduled in 2018...

Up to 1000: 2 units/2 detachments 1001 to 2000: 3 units/3 detachments Attachments:

Are we going to be able to use the Custodes beta rules?

I'm fine with the tourney set-up the way it is, rule of three is nice for making symmetrical vanguard / outrider / spearhead detachments. Seeing as we're at great crusade tournament anyways 2 detachments should help keep faction-souping to a sensible minimum.

Would it be inappropriate to use the DI Lord of Contagion model as a stand-in for Typhus? I'm starting out and hoping to keep purchases streamlined, but no problem if that's not cool.

yep, that's totally fine - just need to make sure that your opponent knows he's Typhus! (I think the Lord of Contagion is a super cool model and could easily be a good stand in for him)

Awesome, thanks!
Been really enjoying getting back into a more hobby-centred miniatures game and I'm cautiously optimistic I'll be good to go for May.
