RULES
(version 1.0, updated Nov. 7, 2006)


“Go forth and gather your friends, this war will be fought by all; it will not be won in a few giant battles of thousands, but of a thousand battles of few.”
-Lord Githmar on guerrilla warfare


Overview
Welcome to the Fighting Hellfish: Warhammer Little League.

Here's your chance to fight multiple battles on a smaller level, test out the newly released 7th Edition rules, get a taste of the game for new players and finally turn that pile of dust-gathering plastic and metal into a full-fledged, fighting army.

The games will start out small, and grow in minor increments every week. At the end, we will be playing 500 points—which is only 1/4 the size of a standard Warhammer army.

League Rules:

  • Warhammer Little League will use the Games Workshop Warhammer Fantasy 7th Edition Rules with a variation of the escalation league in the Warhammer Warbands Rules.
  • Official Warhammer Little League day is Thursdays, except for Thanksgiving week, when it will be Tuesday. You can also play makeup or extra league games on any day during the week.
  • League Schedule. Because of the holidays and player's unfamiliarity with the rules, there are multiple bonus weeks:
    • Week 1-Thu 11/16: 200 pts
    • Week 2-Tue 11/21: 200 pts (Thanksgiving Bonus)
    • Week 3-Thu 11/30: 300 pts
    • Week 4-Thu 12/7: 400 pts
    • Week 5-Thu 12/14: 500 pts
    • Week 5-Thu 12/21: 500 pts (Xmas Bonus)
    • Week 6-Thu 12/28: 500 pts (New Year's Bonus)
    • Week 7 (Thu 1/4): 500 pts (Playoffs)
    • Week 8 (Thu 1/11): 500 pts (Finals)
  • You and your opponent can opt to play a larger starting size army list for a league game.
  • You may change your list anytime between games. But you must have your list ready to show your opponent before seeing your opponent's list.
  • Amended Escalation Rules.
    • You will not be awarded extra army-list points for victories, draws or normal losses.
    • You can choose to take extra army-list points if you were massacred (the one who was on the receiving end of a massacre, not the one who dealt it).
    • You can choose to add 15 extra points to your army list for every massacre received in the last 5 games played.
    • If you choose to add extra points (because you were massacred) to your army list, the highest result that you can achieve for the game is a draw. Your opponent, however, can still achieve a victory.
  • All league games must be recorded on a league record sheet and placed in the league drop box. Home games may also be submitted by email.
  • League fees are $5.

Playoff Rules
  • All league players are eligible for the league tournament. Regardless, if you are in first or last place, you still get to go to the playoffs.
  • You must have two prepared, prewritten army lists for the start of the playoffs. These are your lists for the duration of the playoffs and finals. For each game, before seeing your opponent's list, you must declare to your opponent which army list you will be using.
  • Player's ranking in the league determines the pairings. Highest ranked will play the lowest ranked, second highest ranked will play the second lowest ranked, etc.
  • If there is an odd number of players, the highest ranked player will be awarded a “bye”.
