The Death or Glory tournament is a 5 round, 40K, singles event fought over two days at the

1st Ashtead Scout Hall in Ashtead, Surrey, UK. It’ll be an 1850 pts tournament with little in the way of

composition to try to stay true to the 40k rulebook.

Profits of the tournament will go to the 1st Ashtead Scout Group who have kindly allowed us to host

the tournament in their hall.

The weekend of 7/8 September 2013

1st Ashtead (Pelham) Scout Group

Woodfield

Ashtead,

Surrey

KT21 2RJ (just 5 minutes off J9 on the M25.)

Tickets are £15

Capacity: 40 players

As you can see from the map, the event is very close to Ashtead train station.

It’s also very easy to find being just off the M25 junction 9. The hall itself is opposite a church and a

pub called the woodman.

We’ve highlighted the areas where food is available, be it from local convenience stores, Tescos or

restaurants (Both the Mogul Dynasty and the Woodman both serve very good food!)

If you’re looking to stay overnight look for hotels in Leatherhead or Epsom.

Death or Glory Blog website and our face book page just after the list submission deadline. This will

also detail your table.

Subsequent draws will be based on the swiss system using the general ship score. This will ensure

the best player plays the second best and so on and makes sure people are playing other people of

their calibre

The terrain will be pre-determined by the tournament organiser before the event. If you get to a

table and the terrain looks strange call a Referee over to re-set it for you. At the beginning of the

game you and your opponent should discuss the terrain laid out on the table. The majority of terrain

will be ruins or wooded areas and area terrain. However, if there is something weird on the board,

and you both agree to play that terrain piece as something else, by all means go ahead.

1. Discuss terrain and decide types as per the terrain section of this rules pack.;

2. Each player rolls a D6, starting with the player who rolled highest place objectives using

The rules from the 6th edition rule book (page 121);

119 of the 6th edition rule book.;

4. Starting with the player who rolled highest place any Fortifications ;

5. Nominate warlord and determine traits (page 111);

6. Generate psychic powers if required.;

7. Roll for Night Fight;

8. Player should now roll a D6 again to determine who will deploy their force first. The highest roll

can choose to deploy first or second. Whoever deploys first will take first turn.;

9. Once both forces have deployed, along with any infiltrators and scout moves, the player

Going second can attempt to seize the initiative.; finally

10. Play game – have fun!

Everyone enjoys playing against nicely painted armies, especially if you have put the effort

in on your own army. During Saturday lunch time your Army will be assessed for painting.

There is a minimum standard of 3 colours, to be applied in a coherent format. Playing with

unpainted models is not allowed and you will be asked to remove these.

Please be aware every model in your army is judged – this includes Fortifications and newly

spawned/summoned models; if even only one model fails to meet a criteria you will score 0

for that section.

Painted and Based (10pts) –Your army has been painted with a minimum of 3 Colours. Bases (clear

flying bases excluded) have some form of texture + colour.

Detail (10pts) – Your Army has had some form of extra detail applied to it. Techniques

such as Inking, dry brushing and highlighting would be examples of this category.

Cohesive Scheme (10pts) – the models follow a theme and look like an army

Best Painting nomination (10pts) – it is clear you have put something extra into your army, be it well

executed conversions, advanced painting techniques or just makes the Judge go WOW! These in

effect will be the armies in the running for the best army award. There is no limit to how many

nominations will be given out.

You are required to submit your army list to: Deathorgloryblog@outlook.com

Deadline for Army list entries: 23:59hrs, 1 Sept 2013

Each player must give one player 6 points and another player 3 points. Sportsmanship results will

not affect the overall champion award just the Hobby Champion and the sportsmanship awards.

The person with the highest sportsmanship award wins Most Sporting opponent. Generalship scores

will be used as a tie breaker.
