The event will be using the rules in the 4th edition rules and any FAQ or errata published by Mantic Games prior to the event.

Chess clocks will be used to help the tournament run on schedule. Clocks should be used throughout deployment, scout moves, and player turns. Players will have 70 minutes each on their chess clocks.

If you and your opponent disagree on a rule, pause the clock whilst you check the rulebook. If that doesn’t resolve your issue, please ask the tournament organiser to adjudicate.

The clock should also be paused if either player needs to take a break for any reason.

If a player time then it is dice down. Any unresolved combats are assumed to have passed their nerve test. Your opponent may complete their remaining turns in the time that they have left on their clock, including rolling for turn 7.

If there are enough pauses during a game that you predict the round time will end before both players have finished, please inform the tournament organiser as soon as possible so that this can be resolved fairly for both players.
