Brawler Bash has a long history of players actively cooperating to clean up after their final game is finished. Please, when you finish Game 5, place your table terrain in the appropriate location.
FORMAT
Brawler Bash XIII is an Open List 4500 point standard tournament. We will use the most recent version of The 9th Age Rulebook and standard army books including the Asklanders supplementary book, as of 2/11/2023.
Army lists can be submitted on New Recruit before March 3 2023.
Players should bring physical or virtual copies of their list to provide to their opponents and are advised to have access to a pen, a calculator, the 9th Age Rulebook, and their Army Book.
ROUNDS AND PAIRINGS
Round 1 pairings will be determined by random draw, with Grudge Matches between players of differing clubs allowed and encouraged. Pairings for Rounds 2-5 will be based on the Swiss System using your current Battle Points total (excluding any Bonus Battle Points or Penalties).
Efforts will be made to prevent pairing clubmates together during Round 1 and Round 4.
Should a player be over fifteen minutes late or miss a game for whatever reason, a reserve player may be appointed as a temporary stand-in. If no one is available to stand-in, a bye will be awarded to the player who is present. Absentee players who require a stand-in will have that games score set to zero. Players receiving a bye will be paired for their remaining games as if they earned full Battle Points.
Time remaining in the round will be prominently displayed and an announcement will be made when only 15 minutes remain. Players are strongly encouraged to remain aware of the time. When Time is called players will finish the current phase and may not begin another.
Additional Penalties may apply for failure to submit your list by the deadline or to meet minimum standards of painting or sportsmanship.
- Late List Submission: -5 Battle Point Penalty Toward Overall
