Tournament Limits
We have a hard cap of 24 players. . You must register for the tournament and have purchased a convention pass at the Millenniuncon store. First come, first serve basis.
Force Structures
No army may exceed 1500 points but may be less than 1500. Armies may only be drawn from the North Africa and East Front books.
Printed Lists
All players must bring printed copies of their lists and make these available to opponents upon request. Lists must include the complete stats of the units, their costs, and any special rules that apply to units or to the force. This list must include any substitutions that are allowed prior to battle. This must be the same list that tournament organizers approved.
Visual Representations of Armaments
Teams with differing armaments must be visually distinguishable from one another. This means that, for example, Flamethrower Teams must be visually different from the Rifle/MG Teams in the same platoon. This may be achieved through figures or through markers on the bases.
Visual Representations of Platoon Organization
All the teams of a platoon must be marked in some way to indicate that they are members of that platoon. In the case of vehicles, this is only necessary if you have multiple platoons of the same type. For example, if you have a single platoon of StuGs and no other StuGs in your army, then you do not need to mark them. However, if you have two platoons of Shermans, then they must be marked to indicate platoon membership. This platoon marking must be visible without picking up the teams. Color indicators on the back of a stand, or small bits of label that extend out the back or side of the team are ideal. Kampfgruppen and cross attachments must also be marked in this manner, so bring labels if necessary for ad hoc labeling!
