Version 1.0
Regional Play-offs
1. Models must be WYSIWYG, though do not have to be painted. Absolutely no proxy models are allowed, though models that depict what they actually are from other companies is acceptable. Final discretion is given to the league representatives.
2. Special characters are legal as long as they are represented in an army book or other official publication (such as white Dwarf).
3. Armies must be drawn to a 2000 point game size. If a contender cannot meet those standards, then they are disqualified from the play-offs.
Each game will score a specific amount of game points per the standard set for league scoring for the term. Thus, if you score a draw, you would score 11 game points. To this, there will be modifiers. The scenarios for each round itself will have modifiers in addition to the modifiers on the list below. The player with the most game points at the end of the game is determined the winner.
+1 game point if your army has 1000 points or more of core.
+1 game point if your army is fully painted.
Overall League Championships
Each region will run its individual play-offs per the standards set above determining a winner for each league term. After three terms (a season), there will be a play-offs run to determine who is the overall champion of the WWHFB!!! For a full season, each player who wins or comes in second for their region will win the opportunity to represent their region in the league play-offs. The league representatives and organizer will hold league play-offs for the year in January of the following year at a location that will be determined. This will be announced at least a month ahead of time to give players the opportunity to plan for the day’s events.
For the Overall League Championships players will play in an invitational Rogue Trader Tournament using all approved WWHFB modifications for scoring. These will be available at the WWHFB website for preview so there are no surprises.
Format for the Tournament
3 rounds
Armies are 2000 points for each player
Special characters that are made official or are listed in the army books are legal.
Armies must be WYSIWYG and must be painted. Unpainted armies may compete, but will not be allowed to win. This is the most important event the WWHFB runs and should showcase the best of our hobby and gaming skills.
Scenarios will all be WWHFB original scenarios and will be available on the WWHFB website for preview. The scenarios will be randomly generated, though the same scenario cannot be used for two rounds. This should help keep it fair.
