- All applicable dice, tokens, movement and range rulers.
* Please note that all current Errata and Points Adjustment Documents apply!
To speed up registration on the day, players are advised to fill out the form at the back (or any alternative form of scribble) and email it to schacherleric@gmail.com a few days before the event.
Alternatively players can hand in their army lists on the day of Session 1.
SESSION 1 GAME FORMATS
Each round will feature unique deployment, condition and scoring scenarios on a skirmish size playing field.
These will be revealed at the start of each round on the day of the event.
SESSION 1 SCORING
Each round will be scored as a Win or Loss on www.tabletop.to. Players are advised to preregister on the site for the tournament.
If neither player has won after 75 minutes, play continues until the current round has been completed and the player with the most VPs at that time is the winner.
If there is an odd number of players on the day, one of the players will receive a Bye each round which will be scored as a Win. They will however get to play against one of the event organisers to break any possible boredom.
SESSION 1 PRIZES
Prize support will be covered with the entrance fee of R100 and additional sponsorships, with various prizes up for grabs, including prizes for Session 1 Attendance, prizes for Tournament Standings and Achievement Reward prizes:
- Session 1 Attendance: Here am I! – Small goodies for everybody that attends.

ACHIEVEMENTS
Achievements are feats of strength or luck or special actions that players can unlock on the day during Session 1 (or in some cases leading up to Session 1).
Each achievement can only be unlocked once and the player should verify unlocking a certain achievement with his or her opponent when it occurs. The top achievement scorer on the day will win additional prizes.
