Raise the battle standards! Ready yourselves for Battle. TSE’s Warhammer Fantasy Slo-Grow League kicks off Saturday, April 27th. Starting army size is 750 points, escalating every 3 weeks.
Our Warhammer Fantasy League is geared to offer something to competitive and casual players alike. Most of all, it’s a great reason to play! Players will earn points throughout the League for playing games, game prowess, showing up on league day, purchases and painting their models.
The League will follow an Escalation model, meaning after each tier the size of your army increases. You are not required to buy a new army to play. Of course, if you’re thinking about a new army, this is the perfect opportunity. Not only will you get to play with your new force as you build it up, you might win prizes to add to it for free!
Official League Day will be every Saturday starting on April 27th. You can schedule games on other days if you need, though you’ll get bonus credit for playing on League Day.
Scoring
Players earn Battle Points for each game they play. Here’s the breakdown:
• 1 point for playing a game
• 1 point for losing a game
• 1.5 points for drawing a game
• 2 points for winning a game.
• 1 point for each unit you field that is painted (must have been painted since the start of league.)
• 1 point for playing your game on a League Day
• 1 point for every $35 spent during a tier
At the end of each Tier we will award a prize for best gamer for that tier. Then at the end of the league we will award prize support for top two players (based on points), an award for perfect attendance (everyone who has perfect attendance will get a prize), best attitude and a booby prize to the lowest-scoring player. Prizes will be based on how many players participate and how much has been bought by the participants.
Tiers
The League will run in Tiers with increasing army sizes and a few special rules. Entry into each Tier is $5 for prize support along with 5% of all sales to participants during the league. (you need to remind me when you make the purchases). You must have signed up and paid your tier fee before the first Saturday of each tier.
