Student Nationals - Round 1 Draw and Closed Lists

As some of you may be aware, I have become involved in running this year Warhammer event at the annual Student National Roleplaying and Wargaming Championships. It is being held in Leicester next weekend, and as it is so local I was happy to assist when the call went out.

A lot of the organizing has already been done, and the event will be 5 games, 2400 points and will be using the Tally Comp pack I am so enamored of. Details of this can be found in earlier posts. :-)

With one week to go, I have been sent all but three of the lists. The organisers for the Wargaming section are chasing the remaining three, but so as to try and get some build-up for the event going I am going to go ahead and release not only the (provisional) first round draw, but the Closed Lists for all the participants as well.

The draw for Round 1 has been made by the Tally Comp score that each list has, with high scoring armies playing high scoring armies in the first game, and vice-versa for the low scorers. The only change has been to keep team mates apart, something I can only promise for Day 1 of the event. I will say that if I do receive any of the three late lists, they will be added on to the bottom of the draw in the order they are received. If not, the person on the bottom of this list will play the spare player and his Comp 0 Dwarf list.


*EDIT* After I posted this, I was informed that one of the players had unfortunately had to drop out as she will be reffing a category at the Nationals instead of playing. I have also received another list, and this will be the final one as the last two potential players are also going to be referees as well. To change the published draw as little as possible, the spare player will be stepping in to replace Nicola on Table 5, and the new list will, as I had said, take on Matt on Table 13. Unless there are further drop outs, this should be the final amendment to the draw.

Closed Army Lists

Something else I like to see before an event is a release of the lists. With Tally Comp, I think it is even more interesting as the various positive choices available make for some unusual tournament lists!

For those not aware of the point of Closed Lists, I have included anything that your opponent can tell about your army just by looking at your models or anything you would tell them before the game. That includes all mundane options on characters, Magic Levels and Lores, all unit upgrades, command options and anything else similar. It will not include any Magic Items or equvalent items such as Daemonic Gifts, or anything hidden from your opponent at the start of the game. If the three late lists are sent in, I will adjust this post to include them. I will also have this information as a PDF on the day of the event.

They are arranged by race, and within the race by Comp score. I'd love to hear any feedback on these lists, it's the first outing of the updated Tally Comp since the End Times were included - I'll be looking to reassess the comp after the event.
