LIST BUILDING

Each player will build a 1000 point army for a combined total of 2000 points per team.

Armies must be battle forged, following the rules set in the rulebook for matched play restrictions. Legends will not be allowed for army construction.

This event will be using list building guidelines from the Chapter Approved 2025/2026 mission pack.

The rules cut-off date for this event will be March 28th, 2026. No rules released after this date will be in effect at this event.

Army Lists must be submitted through the BCP app by 11:59 pm March 28th, 2026. Both players must submit their lists individually and clearly indicate their partner.

Failure to submit lists by the cut-off will result in a deduction of 10 VP in the first round. No exceptions. If you have an issue contact the TO prior to list submission.

DOUBLES FORMAT

Each team will generate one shared CP pool. CP is tracked and spent collectively.

Each team must nominate one Team Warlord before the event. Only that model counts as the army’s Warlord for rules and mission purposes.

Teammates function as a single army for scoring purposes. Secondary missions are selected as a team and Primary and Secondary scoring is shared.

Aura abilities, stratagems, and detachment rules do not cross between teammates unless explicitly stated otherwise.

Conversions and custom models are acceptable for this event. Proxied models are not. Models must use appropriate base sizes per the current GW Base Size Guide. Armies must be painted to a Battle Ready standard to receive the 10 VP painting bonus.
