The Bladestorm Battleforce Recon Tournament!

Hey everyone, I'm very pleased to announce the first Bladestorm tournament using the Battleforce Recon mission for Warhammer 40k Sixth Edition. All of our practice over the past months has gone to good use, now let's see who fares the best in our first ever tournament!

When: September 28th, 11 a.m. (Registration begins at 10)
Where: Games and Stuff in Glen Burnie, Maryland

Format: Swiss, 3 rounds. 1 hour time limit per round.
Entry: $10
Slots: 16
Prizes: Store credit (dependent on number of entrants) plus other goodies, and the honor of the first Bladestorm Champion!

Mission Details: Battleforce Recon (pg. 362 of the Big Rulebook or available transcribed here)

Event Info: Conduct, rules questions and judgements will be handled by Ed Vaughan as acting "judge."

Tie-breakers determined by victory points.
Victory by "table" or opponent forfeiture counts as the maximum number of points your army is capable of getting at the end of the game.
No night-fighting.
No allied detachments.
Counts-as models acceptable as long as they are similar scale and on 40k-style beveled bases of applicable size. If you have questions on whether a model is acceptable, ask the organizer BEFORE the event preferably.
