At last, the details have been sorted, prizes found and we are going to run our first Deadzone tournament in my home town of Ipswich. The Rules pack is below but to highlight the details in brief it will be 150 points, three games, £6 for a ticket, spot prizes in each round and we will need help with scenery and boards as this is only a start up tournament.

OVERVIEW

The tournament will be over three games each of 150 points, players are can only select a force from one faction to use throughout the day and can not be changed. We will be using the rules form the main book and the errata that can be found on the Mantic website. No Mercs or allies can be used. Your army list must be valid, as of the rulebook/errata. Recon effects will not be used and also secret missions will not. There will be a small prize pool for spot prizes during the games and overall results.

Players need to bring

1. All the dice and counters that are needed to play the game, these must include D8’s and command dice.
2. A painted (at least three colours) force that represents the chosen faction. Miniatures must be WYSIWYG.
3. Two copies of your force roster
4. The rulebook and any errata for your force.
5. The gaming mat and constructed terrain from any of the Deadzone boxsets is desirable as I only have a limited number at present. Please let me know if you are bringing any bits or not.
