Holy Wars X: Reforged, an Age of Sigmar Narrative Team/Doubles Event consisting of 5 games of Ages of Sigmar. Each game will have 5 battle rounds with unique table battleplans and deployments designed around each battleplan. There are slots for 88 players, 44 teams. Teams comprised of a Grand Alliance are preferred but not required. If Tzeentch is aligned with Stormcast we want a narrative provided explaining how this uneasy alliance was formed.

Current General’s Handbook season, will be used.

Advance Intel

Here are things to consider when teams build their army list.

1. A variety of Warscroll types will be important to success.
2. Holy terrain will impact the game, all Holy terrain is Prime Terrain.

Rules

• Each team is considered to be two separate armies. Teams that bring the same army can only use army abilities and faction terrain on their specific army.
• Each player’s deployed army must meet all of the 1000-point requirements.
• Special/Unique Characters with a point value less than 400 are allowed.
• Artefacts and Spell Enhancements are chosen in advance and must be indicated in the army list.
• Teams may not duplicate faction-specific prayers, spells, artifacts, or manifestations.
• Each player has a pool of Command Points; these can only be used to issue commands to their army and not their partner. 
• Command Abilities, Battle Traits, Command Traits, and Faction Terrain only apply to a player’s army and cannot affect their partner’s army.
• Battle Tactics will NOT be used in the scoring matrix. We have our own unique Battle Plans that will use the Holy Wars scoring.
• Only Battalions from the current GHB and the Core Rule book will used. 
• Fighting the Battle: During set-up, each player on the team sets up a unit when it is their turn to do so. Instead of each player taking a turn during the game each team takes a turn. The team’s roll off against each other to see which team has priority. Where individual players would normally alternate taking actions, the teams alternate taking actions, with each player in the team being allowed to carry out their actions. For example, in the combat phase, each player on a team can attack with one of their units, then each player on the other team, and so on. Attempts to unbind or dispel a spell are limited to one attempt per team, rather than one attempt for each player on the team. There is only ever one chance to unbind or dispel a successfully cast spell. 
• All models must be fully painted a tabletop standard, 3 color minimum is not acceptable. Models primed with only 3 items painted are not considered fully painted are not allowed for this event. Any models not painted to this standard will not be allowed and judges will have them removed from the table if spotted. Offending players will lose a sports point.
• Display boards are optional. Display boards are limited to 24”x24” and will be allowed in the judging room for paint judging. All models must fit on this display board. Players are encouraged to bring other means of army transportation from table to table. If you do not have a display board, you must have a mat to display your army on to compete for a Hobby Award.
• All Summoned models, Terrain and Endless Spells do NOT have to be displayed. These models must be painted to the same level as the rest of the army. If these models are not painted to the same standard they will not be allowed to be used. Players are only required to display their deployed army. Malign Sorcery Endless Spells bases are allowed to have a unique basing schemes. Faction specific Endless Spells must match the basing of the army, even bases that are molded bases must have the same texture as the army bases.
• Players may NOT borrow models from other players for summoning or any special rules.
• There is no list deadline for our event players are on the honor system for lists.
• Any players caught deliberately cheating will be disqualified and banned from future Holy Wars events.
• Holy Wars Re-Roll dice: Each player will have the opportunity to purchase a Holy Wars Re-Roll dice for $20. Each player will have the opportunity to Re-Roll one dice roll during each game, including priority.

Rule Judges
Players are required to have their Warscrolls handy ready to resolve rule disputes between themselves in a fair and friendly manner. However, in the case of ambiguous rules or firm disagreements, players are encouraged to dice off to resolve the dispute. If after the dice off the issue is still not resolved there will be Rule Judges circulating on the floor. While we strive for accuracy, it is our main goal to keep games moving along. Decisions from a Rule Judge will be quick and considered final.
