How the Tournament Works:
We will be using the standard 2012 Steamroller Tournament format.

Each player should bring an army consisting of 35 points. Each player is allowed to use one of the two 35 point lists they've chosen in each game they play.

Competitors will participate in a number of games over the course of the day based on attendance (probably 4, hopefully 5). In each game, you will play a scenario and record the outcome of the battle on your Tournament Record Sheet. Each round you will play a different opponent. Each round will last 80 minutes. Each player turn will last a maximum of 10 minutes.

In the first round, players will be matched up randomly. After the first round, players will be matched up according to current rankings in the tournament (e.g., the player in first place will play the player in second place and so on). If a player receives a BYE they will be awarded 1 TP and 0 CP's in accordance with the rules.

You will not play the same person twice.

The pairings for each round will be announced as soon as they are determined. Please be sure to arrive at your table ready to play right away.
 
Each game will be played on a 4' x 4' board.

Players will receive Tournament Record Sheets at the beginning of each round. Each results sheet must be filled in properly to ensure that match-ups and point totals are correct. Once Record Sheets are completed they are to be turned in at the counter so the scores can be entered into the computer.
