KARMA
UNIVERSAL 40K
10th EDITION
EVENTS PACK
 

ARMY SELECTION AND LIST SUBMISSION

All armies must be no more than 2000pts using the most up to date rules and point costs. 

 

The cut off for new rules will be detailed in the event specific info for your event, so no rules published after this date will be in effect for the tournament. Lists should be submitted via the Best Coast Pairing App before midnight on the submission date given by the TO.

 

Please make sure you upload your list before the deadline. If you are struggling to do so on the app contact your TO before the deadline and to request they upload it for you.

 

Please use the new 40k App to format your list for submission on BCP and upload as text not screenshots. Make sure to include your enhancement and detachment type. Please disable updates on your app on the rules cut off deadline to ensure you are using the correct version of your rules.

​

  • Legends units cannot not be used

  • Forge World (expert kits) units can be used

  • A unit that is both Forge World AND Legends cannot be used

​

Any missing enhancements that are chosen pregame will be considered lost. Any illegal units (legends or units with incorrect load outs for example) will be removed from play and cannot be replaced.

​

Please double check your list before posting, as changes will not be allowed after the submission date. This includes changing weapon profiles even though the unit cost remains the same.

​

​

PAINTING STANDARDS

Including conversions and proxies

Your army must be fully painted and based to at least a Battle Ready standard, using a minimum of three colours. 

​

Conversions, Proxies and older models are allowed, but must meet the following criteria

  • Use the correct base size for the most current version of that unit. The current version is whatever is supplied in the latest box for that unit.

  • Must share similar dimensions to the original model.

  • Not give any advantage over using the original unit model

  • Must be within the spirit of the army the unit is part of

 

Any models reported to the TO and found not to meet the above standards will be removed from play and that players list will be corrected. Players will be given the opportunity to get their models up to standard if time allows between games.

PAIRINGS AND SCORE TRACKING

We will be using the Best Coast Pairings app to pair players and track final scores. Having the app is not essential but will make the day run smoother if it is being used by the majority of players to check their table numbers and submit results.

​

Pairings for round 1 will be random, with rounds 2 and 3 pairings being based on Number of Wins -> Battle Points - > Strength of Schedule

​

If there is an odd number of players leading to someone lacking an opponent, a bye score will be awarded. This will be in the form of a 60 point win. However a ringer player (either a Judge, TO or local volunteer if available) will then be matched with that player who will then play and gain an opportunity to score higher. If they lose their game, the 60 point win will stand. If they win then their winning score will count towards the next round.

​

During the games it is up to players to keep track of their scores. We advise both players do so to ensure the most accurate scoring.

​

Score sheets with be available at the TO station for players to use in their games, and the use of score tracking apps are fine too.

​

WHAT YOU NEED TO BRING

  • Your battle ready army 

  • All relevant official rules documents for you to play your army and the missions set out (digital versions are fine )

  • Dice, a tape measure and objective markers

  • This player pack (digital is fine)

  • A tray to move your army between tables

  • A water Bottle.

  • A copy of your list to show your opponent should they not have access to the BCP app

RULES AND CONDUCT

​

Please try to resolve any rules you are unsure of with your opponent. We advise checking the published rules whenever there is a need for clarification. If this does not resolve the issue, please call for a Tournament Organiser (TO). If you call over one of our team their resolution of the matter will be final

 

We will be adhering to the ITC code of conduct found here as well as our own Players Social Contract found here.

​

We will be using yellow and red cards at our event.

 

A yellow card is considered a warning for an infraction which has a negative effect on the event or it's participants.

 

These include but are not limited too the following infractions:

​

  • Not submitting your list by the deadline

  • Submitting an illegal list

  • A Breach of the Players Social Contract

  • A Breach of the ITC Code of Conduct.

  • Not being able to present rules for your army upon the request of your opponent or the TO.

​

A Red Card being issued will result in the participant receiving it being removed from the event roster and unable to play any further. Red cards come with with an exclusion period in which that player cannot participate in any further events until that period has ended. An exclusion period will be determined by the TO after the event is over and communicated to that player.

​

Infractions that can result in a Red Card include but are not limited too:

​

  • Receiving a second Yellow Card

  • Actively Cheating

  • Any improper behaviour towards other players or the event team.

DICE ROLLING APPS AND CHESS CLOCKS

Dice rolling apps will not be permitted at the event.

 

Chess clocks are not required, though if your opponent asks to use one then you must use one. It’s the responsibility of the requesting player to  supply the chess clock.

BEST PAINTED ARMY

Over lunch time an area will be designated for players to display their armies if they want to enter them for the best painted prize. Even if you are not entering please take some time to look at these armies and vote for your favourite. 

​

Please try to take into account the following when voting, to make this as fair as possible:

​

Is the army cohesive? ie shares a theme

Does it have interesting models?

Is there plenty of detail?

Does it look like the armies owner has gone above and beyond the others on show.

 

Armies should be displayed in their entirety meaning you cannot remove anti that are not to the same standard as the rest of your force.

​

Commission painted armies cannot be entered. Nor can an army contains any units that are commission painted. For the sake of this category borrowed units count as commissioned.
