The scoring will work the same way as our fantasy tournaments, which is to say:
First two round pairings based on judge assessed comp (these scores have no further effect), rest on battle points.
Battle Points:
20 possible per round, 1-14 from degree of victory and 0-6 from bonus objectives.
Total possible Battle Points 100.
Sportsmanship:
6 points per round, from a very specifically outlined checklist.
Maximum of 30 points here.
Composition:
Same as Sportsmanship.
Painting:
One judge (Carol Tiveron) will use a 40 point checklist to score everyone. This is a slightly modified version of the one Matt Lewedowski created for the GW GTs. I'll try and get a copy of it up, but its the same one we have used for every slaughter.
Votes for Favorite Opponent and Favorite Army will be used for tie breaking purposes on their relavant awards. Our awards will be:
Overall- Best combined score of the possible 200 points.
Best General- Best Battle Points. Composition is first tie breaker, Sports is the second tie breaker.
Best Sportsman- Best Sports Points. Favorite Opponent votes are the first tie breaker. Composition Score is the second tie breaker.
Best Painted- Painting score points. Favorite Army votes are the first tie breaker. Paint Judges choice is the second tie breaker.
Best Army- Composition Score. Favorite Army Votes are the first tie breaker. Painting Score is the second tie breaker.
Richard Marquez Award- Lowest Battle Points coupled with high soft scores. The tournament head judge is the final arbiter with this award.
The two Indy Finals passes will be awarded to the Best Overall and the 1st place Best General.
Also, to get the bonus reroll, you need to pay by March 16th. Army lists are due by April 9th. Anyone turning in an army late will be scored a zero in composition for pairing purposes. This has no effect on your overall, but you will get paired with another random latecommer or someone who brought a hard as nails army for the first two rounds as a result.
Scenarios will be posted for both the 40k main GT and Fantasy side events once Scott and I have a chance to complete the playtesting on them. Should be very soon. I strongly anticipate a standard spred of 1-2 KP related missions and the rest objective based.
Slaughter style KP will be used for the annihilation style scenarios, which means 1 KP per 100 points round up (down if troops or dedicated transports for troops), to a minimum of 1 KP. This is the same system used last Slaughter in Space and the one we use in our league, so we feel comfortable with it.
