Army Criteria:
– 1000 point list

– We prefer painted armies, but that is not mandatory.
– We implement the what you see is what you get (WYSIWYG) ‘rule’. No substitute models and the guns/equipment your models have must be an accurate reflection of the list you have submitted.
Your list must be generated from the Second Edition Rulebook, ‘Armies of…’ books or the additional unit PDFs. No army rules from the Theatre books can be used.
Many of our players are new to the game; please don’t bring seriously over powered and abusive lists, the aim of the day is to have fun and not start WW3!
