SCANIA OPEN! 26-27/10/12

[Afroman]

I'm delighted to present to you the first iteration of
SCANIA OPEN

This will take place in Malmö, as part of the annual Storytelling Convention SydCon.

The When:
Last weekend of October, 26&27 October.

The Where:
Malmö City,Sweden.

The Rules:

Style:This will be a Resurrection Tournament, meaning that you will be playing with same Cockerel during the whole tournament. All Winnings, injuries and spps will be reset at the beginning of every match.
We play according to the Comp. Rulespack including the three new teams. As a starting point the four minute rule isn't enforced. The referees can and will re-enforce this if they find that necessary for the flow of the tournament, either in individual games or in all remaining games as they see fit. They might even enforce three or two minute turns in extreme cases.

Team Size: Each team is allowed to spend 1100K in Team creation.

Skills: The first game will be without any additional skills. There after each team will be allowed to add a normal skill to one player for each round. This is in addition to any other skills already chosen in previous rounds. On round 2 and 4, each team may add a skill otherwise only available on a double instead of a normal skill.

Tiers & Handicaps:
Tier 1:
All teams not in Tier two or three belongs to tier one. These teams don't get any handicap.

Tier 2:
Any team in Tier 2 will be allowed to choose a extra normal skill at round one.
these teams are: Chaos, Chaos Pact, Elf, High Elf, Human, Khemri, Nurgle, Slann.

Tier 3:
Any team in Tier 3 is allowed to use the creation money to buy Starplayer(max 1), bribes, and the halfling chef. In addition they also get a starting skill at round one. Once chosen, the Starplayer will stay with the team during the whole tournament.
These teams are. Goblin, Halfling, Ogre, Underworld, Vampire.

Tournament Format:
The individual match-ups are decided randomly in the first round and by Swiss-draw thereafter.

1 point is awarded for a victory, ½ for a draw and 0 for a defeat.

In the case of equal point score in the table of standings the following tie-breaker is used:
- first sort by mutual game (if possible)
- then by sum of opponent's points
- last by best (TD+cas+comp+int) net-score.

Paint and miniatures
Painted miniatures are not mandatory (though we urge you to do so). Those teams, that by the tournament staff are deemed painted (ie ALL miniatures are painted and flocked to a sufficient standard.) will get +1 Cheerleader and +1 Assistant Coach. This will take effect from round 2 - during the first round the referees will review the teams' miniatures as they play.
The miniatures doesn't have to be original GW-minis. However the miniatures must be representative for the roster's race and players (ie a Norse thrower must look like a Norse thrower) and be easily recognizable from other positionals.

We encourage you to use the following color coded bases:
Grey/none: Lineman
Red: Blitzer
Green: Blocker
White: Thrower
Yellow: Catcher, Runner

If your opponent can't easily recognize the different player types on your team, you must let him mark them somehow (without damaging the miniatures, of course). This could be with bottle caps or colored rings etc.
