Prince-Indus Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Is there some difference in how the first round is played? You called it the shotgun round, does that mean anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter.cosgrove Posted January 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 No. The term is from golf. Just means players start play without a pre-match table ladder. Although I do have to assign players that are under 21 to specific tables on the first floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter.cosgrove Posted January 31, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) It looks like, according to GW, the pre-orders are going to drop on or around Feb 8, and the codex will drop actual on or around Feb 16. As long as the GW product codex and datasheets are readily available and viewable on-site, either electronically or hardcopy, and the models are WYSIWYG with 3 paints and basing then yes. I don't see any reason to not allow them. Edited January 31, 2019 by peter.cosgrove Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter.cosgrove Posted February 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 Guardian Cup will have room for about 42 people if we have 3 under 21 players show up. For example. There will also be 1-2 tables overflow available in Critical Sip IF we have more than 36 players show up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikhailLenin Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 Are the Beta Rules for Custodes in play for the event? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter.cosgrove Posted February 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 I have reconducted a review of the following: The requirement to upload army lists is not feasible for Guardian Cup 2019. There will be WiFi available, however I will only have 1 device available for players to register if they have not registered and those players will have priority. Games will be standard games with 2:30 minute rounds and a 30 minute TO Discretion/break between each game There will be some Enclosed Ruins on the tables so review the Enclosed Ruins rules below. There will be pizza available on Sat during the lunch break, I have ordered pepperoni and Hawaiian, as well as some donuts on Sun.

Lyraeus Posted February 15, 2019 Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 @peter.cosgrove since we are not using beta rules does this beam we are not using the Tactical Reserves rule where you can't bri g in deep strike units till Turn 2? That's listed as a Beta Match Play rule in the Big FAQ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter.cosgrove Posted February 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 The rule set in question is contained here: https://whc-cdn.games-workshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/warhammer_40000_the_big_faq_2_en-2.pdf and is on the official Errata web page and will therefore be in play.

So, official product doesn't matter even if labeled as a Beta rule. It has to only be in official errata labeled as a beta rule. Ok. Makes the game easier for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironfrontalex Posted February 15, 2019 Report Share Posted February 15, 2019 Peter why are you not running the beta rules at this time? They've been available for some time and all local gaming groups have been playing with them for months so they're far from unfamiliar. Also the absence of communication about this ruleset outside of this exclusive forum means you'll be seeing many players ready to use tactics related to beta rules.

The only ones @peter.cosgrove is not using is Bolter Drill and the new Custodes Beta rules. Those were also not available for LVO due to being released after January 8th but my opinion is if the new Genestealer Cult is allowed then the new beta rules should be available since they are official rules. My opinion matters for little, I am not setting this up though. I just want an even playing field since other tournaments I will go to or events will use these 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikhailLenin Posted February 16, 2019 Report Share Posted February 16, 2019 Aye, thats 6 weeks since the release of those beta rules.

peter.cosgrove Posted February 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2019 I am more objectively concerned with the GW webpage statement: Specifically: "Looking for the latest updates to your codex or battletome? Got a question about how something in your army works? Each of these FAQs contains all of the most up-to-date errata and answers you’ll need to make sure that your games run as smoothly as possible, incorporating feedback from you guys and gals out there in the Warhammer community, the playtesters and of course, our studio design team." Since neither the Bolter Discipline nor the Adeptus Custodes proposed rulesets are contained on this page I am uncomfortable including them. I apologize if this causes confusion or consternation.

Would that include sisters of battle as they are a beta codex with no faq or errata? I ask because it's an official product with rules but don't fall under your guidelines so to avoid issues it's best to ask 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
