So more variety please tournament organisers. Let's get away from 800 AP on a 6 x 4 table.
What a spat of wisdom broke out while I was engaged elsewhere. Absolutely variety is good.
FWIW I have played 400 points on like a 2x3. It gave a surprisingly fun quick game.
5x3 800 points is also a very good game. A lot more going on than I suspected.

What is great about all these is they bring in different army options. While I realize that some people only have one army, the ability to have variety makes the game last.

But there is already a well attended competition where there are differing levels of players. Campaign had three divisions. Obviously MAWS won the top division.

I personally apportion blame to the MAWS team captain, who obviously didn't do a very good captain's job

He counted our score correctly as we had the wit to check so that we knew exactly how many points we needed in the last round while MAWS had a bye and were able to pick over the bones of your abject surrender. Thus we knew exactly what score was required to win going into the last round.
