A small update:

1) there will be some slight changes in the 40k rulespack (regarding scoring) and mission objectives

2) there will be another category in the Black Queen Miniature Painting Competition. Category name: Flames of War (any platoon size entry for the game FOW will be elligable. Miniatures need not be Battlefront.)

as soon as the changes are finalized I'll post the newer version of rulespack here.

thanks for reading

Nice! Good to see Infamy Miniatures on the sponsors list once again. They've made some pretty new toys since last year.

[Evilbleachman]

I might have a problem convincing some of my players to join in. Seeing as they speak mostly German and only understand English enough to know the rules. >_<

[Demonn Agram]

ich kann ein bischen Deutsch. keine Sorge

[Evilbleachman]

Ich habe sicherlich keinen Zweifel daran, aber können das sämtliche andere Spieler des Turniers auch?

As said, I will try to get my ass down there. But I cannot promise it 100% on my behalf. :0

[Demonn Agram]

I get your point (wahrscheinlich nicht, oder nicht alle)

and that is all I can ask of you, thanks mate!

Dear friends,

due to the demand to harmonize our rulespack to the new edition of 40k rules, we updated that part of the rulespack. The new and improved rulespack can be found on the same links as the old one.

Link without background (printerfriendly version): http://www.ums-agram.hr/app/webroot/dokumenti/AAS_2013_print.pdf

the changes are written in red in the rulespack for easier viewing.

The changes are as follows:

Army Composition

 Allies may not be used in your army.

 Equipment detailed only in Forge World’s Imperial Armor publications may be used. Exception from this are :GRAIA PATTERN RAPIER LASER DESTROYER, LUCIUS PATERN DROP POD, LAND RAIDER ACHILLES, CESTUS ASSAULT RAM, any SUPER HEAVY UNIT, any GARGANTUAN UNIT, NIGHTWING INTERCEPTOR, IMPERIAL GUARD HEAVY ARTILLERY CARRIAGE BATTERY, NECRON CANOPTEK ACANTHRITES

 Fortifications: only Aegis defence line and Imperial bastion may be used.

Scenarios:

 ™Round 1: Crusade – Dawn of war

 ™Round 2: Purge the alien – Hammer and anvil

 ™Round 3: The relic – Vanguard strike

 ™Round 4: The scouring – Vanguard strike

 ™Round 5: Emperor's will – Dawn of war

Note: Mysterious objectives will not be used.

Generalship

System to be used at Agram Arena Summer 2013 40k tournament will be a 30:30 System. Meaning a player can earn between 0 and 60 points a game, while 30:30 is a draw! Of course, the Matrix to calculate this result is important too. Players start at 30:30, then for every Victory point difference, one side get's +3 , the other -3 (so that the total is always 60) and if all your units are destroyed you get 0 and your opponent 60.

Also, due to the popular demand, we decided to add another category to our Black Queen Miniature Painting Competition. The new category will be:

Flames of War - platoon sized entries are allowed.

During this time UMS "Agram" also approached various companies for sponsorship and here is the full list of our sponsors:

and in the end UMS "Agram" would like to thank Phlegyas Art for supplying these minis as prizes:
