taran.shannara Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 From their website update today. That is a lot of points for late-war toys. " The official points totals for the 2014 - 2015 North American tournament season have now been decided and are as follows: Period Points Early-war 1390 points Mid-war 1710 points Late-war 1900 points " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fingolfen Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Interesting - so will the EW tournament coming up next year be 1390? What about Tanksgiving - is it 1900 now or still 1650? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazarus Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 I think we already set the point for November and February. but if they change just give us enough notice to re point our lists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taran.shannara Posted October 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 I don't mind keeping the points for "Tanksgiving" and "WW2 Begins" as they are. New tournament posting though, like Enfilade 2015, will most likely have these new point levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZEKE Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 OOOOOOOOeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!! We gotta do tournaments with the points levels for Mid-war and especially Late-war. I'm all for Mid-War March and Late-War April!!!!! I can just see Fing drooling over the 1900 point levels for his Heavy Panzer companies.

generalripphook Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 What are the requirements to attend a tournament? Painted and based? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taran.shannara Posted October 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 It depends on the tournament and who is running it. For ones that are held at Guardian Games that I organize, I prefer painted armies but if it means one doesn't play I'd rather have the person at the tournament and playing than not. Without a painted army, the person isn't in the running for best painted and it also hurts the illusion of "being there" for the opponent. It used to hurt the overall general award but now we do a best axis and best allied general and paint score is not part of that award. Painting is a separate award and score. Proper sized bases are required regardless.For convention tournaments like Enfilade in Olympia, WA, painted armies are required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalripphook Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Okay well my Germans are almost ready so I'll try and get some people from Bellingham to come down and play once in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolo Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 WOW!! 1900 points for late war ... ye gads ... that will be all the toys and then some. I better start warming up my paint brush ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taran.shannara Posted October 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 I just looked at Remagen and the Jadgtiger list. Hmm 5 of the beasts with some points to spare. But then I thought, what could Soviets bring for 1900pts after seeing how many stands lazarus had for the mid-war tourney last week. One list not even trying to maximise stands.

ZEKE Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 Upgrading my US tank company from 1650 to 1900 is a matter of adding 5x veteran stuarts. Or. Upgrading a Desperate Measures Heavy tank company would mean adding 1x King Tiger. It seems like 1900 is a crap ton of points but it's more like adding just 1 more platoon. Though Heavy Tank companies always do better in the higher point ranges due to getting more support to keep the heavies alive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
