Tournament Pack Download here
To The Strongest will use the standard rule set as modified by the most recent set of Even Stronger. This is presently version 12a but any amendments up to the end of July 2024 will be used. https://bigredbatshop.co.uk/collections/all/products/to-the-strongest-even-stronger-updated-24-3-2017
Only cards and not chits will be used during the tournament. Cards will be gathered and shuffled for both players at the end of each players turn. Shuffling machines are allowed!
Stratagems to be used provided both players agree i.e. if one player doesn’t want to use them, then they are not used.
First-round opponents will be pre-decided with a random draw and published prior to the competition itself. No exemptions will apply.
Any rules queries to be handled in our usual gentlemanly fashion, but in the event of a dispute, the tournament referee’s decision will be final (unless the query involves the referee themselves, in which case the final decision will fall to a pre-first-game-nominated secondary referee or, to finish the chain, if the game is between the first two mentioned, someone else can decide!).
The Tables
All games will be played on a 6’ x 4’ table using 150mm (6”) squares. The organiser would appreciate it if players could bring a cloth and terrain: Britcon could supply hand-gridded cloths if absolutely necessary, but it would be much better if we had enough professionally produced mats.
Terrain will be preset ready to go with no decisions to be made other than the out-scouter choosing sides. The range of terrain layouts will be very similar to previous competitions i.e. with no extremes. Details to follow.
Points & Lists
The points values will be 140, using 25/28mm figures. All figures must be representative of the units they portray and painted to a minimum standard of three colours and a base of two colours including highlights.
The armies permitted will be from the most recent Ancient or Medieval lists up to the end of July 2024, all lists to be submitted by 01/08/2024 to Derek, who has kindly agreed to check them, at [email protected]. Please title your email BRITCON 2024 list.

Time will be called 15 minutes before the end of the round. When the present turn is finished the game ends, unless it is the round of the player who went first, in which case the player who went second will finish his round so everyone gets the same number of turns.
Results & Scoring
Results slips will be placed on each table, and it is the responsibility of the winning player (the player who took the most coins) to hand this to the Umpire (Robert).
Scoring will be the same as at Ewelme i.e. just cross-reference how many victory medals you took and lost to generate the points gained for the game. It’s all worked out for you in advance!
