Points breakdown:
Your army list must clearly state the army you’re playing and the points breakdown for your
army (for example, a 6-point army could contain a warlord, 3 points of hearthguard, 2 points of
warriors, 1 point of levy).
The army list should also state if you’re bringing any different warlord, any bard, priest,
mercenaries,…
If you select any of these named units or characters, you must use these every battle. The point
breakdown should also remain the same for each battle.
Remember that you can combine or divide units of the same type into units of minimum 4 and
maximum 12 men (i.e. 3 points of warriors can be deployed into two units of 12 men each), and
that some armies permit different equipment options (mounted or on foot, crossbows or spears,
etc.) and that you can change this each battle. You are asked to bring models to represent the
different equipment options if possible.
The army list composition and the inclusion of any special characters, mercenaries,… should be
sent in a .word or .pdf or similar file to
[email protected]
The army list should be sent to us before 29/05/2017!
