Greetings All,
From your 2250 points you also need to select 1000 points to be used in the team game. Units and characters need to be selected from the army you have chosen, although characters and units may choose to remove magic items BUT not purchased new ones.
Yes there will be a team game, 3rd game on the 1st day. I know some people don't like them, don't like them played at that time etc etc
Also I'm not that poor at maths to realise that 1000 is not half of 2250. Team games can often take longer due to the nature of playing with 4 people not 2. Having it set at 2000 points makes life easier.
It is a tradition, and we have had a lot of good feedback in the past. It has NO influence on your battle scores, it is an excellent chance of meeting people in an even more friendly environment, and having a chance to see more armies, how they play.
Note: I understand some armies might struggle a little with "halving" their army if they have invested in high point generals (which are naturally high points, not just tooled up) like slann, greater demons, sorcerer lords and therefore have few heroes or none. If this is the case send me your lists, and we'll have a chat about your options of bringing in a low level character. Please do not however waste my time by sending in options that include ridiculously tooled up heroes that are only 100 points cheaper than your expensive lord, or have silly combinations of items etc. This option is me recognised the restrictions some books have on the concept of this team game, and me trying to accommodate you!
