Beta-Test Tournament - Usk - January 27th/28th 2007

Post by rbodleyscott »

In case any of the new beta-testers are unaware, here is a copy of the notice previously sent out by e-mail. There are still places and all beta-testers are welcome. If your proposed partner is not currently a beta-tester JD will be happy to sign them up (NDA) so that they can participate. If you lack a partner, you can still enter - depending on space you will either play on your own or be paired up with another entrant and play 2 games with each of your armies.

e-mail me on rbs@byzant.demon.co.uk

The army points value has been set at 800 points.

Rules changes from the last Beta version can be found in the Forthcoming changes before Usk thread. Entrants will be sent a version incorporating those changes.
Art of War ??“ Beta-Test Tournament
27th/28th January 2007


It has been decided to hold a 15mm AoW Beta-Test Doubles Tournament in conjunction with the DBM Doubles tournament at Godendag in Usk on the above dates. Details of the venue are in the Godendag notice in the following link (which refers to the DBM tournament, but don't worry about that).

http://www.byzant.demon.co.uk/godendag.htm

Entries will be limited due to space considerations, but all beta-testers already entered into the DBM competition will take precedence if they choose to switch to playing in the AoW tournament. Entries by other beta-testers will be accepted as space permits.

The AoW event will be subsidized to some degree by Slitherine. Those who have already paid entry fees to the tournament will have that portion of their entry fee refunded if they decide to take part in the AoW Doubles

Points size of armies will be 800 points.

There will be a free choice of armies from the lists so far completed. Each team can request 5 lists of their choice from the available lists. I will send them those lists. They can then choose their army for the tournament from amongst those 5 lists, or, if they prefer, from one of the standard Beta-Tester lists.

Yes :wink:

(If it matters, probably 1 inch as that is what most entrants will be used to).
