Epic at the BHGS Challenge@UKGE 2018

Whilst not part of the 'historical' core of the BHGS - the ever popular Epic Armageddon is another intriguing part of the tabletop gaming community as is welcomed at The Challenge!
The BHGS Challenge@UKGE: Epic Armageddon 

The rules to be used are the Epic-UK tournament rules Version 2015.001

Figure Scale : 6mm.
Lists: Epic Armageddon First Edition along with the 2008 GW Rules Amendments and FAQ. You may only use army lists located in /on the Epic-UK website: www.epic-uk.co.uk/wp/army-lists/

Model Figures In Your Army 
  • Where at all possible all models in the army should be WYSIWYG - what you see is what you get.  At the judge's discretion non-WYSIWYG models must be removed from a players army.
  • Try to ensure you are using the correct miniatures to represent your units as far as you can. Using non Citadel miniatures is acceptable providing their design fits into the Epic Universe and you can tell what they are supposed to be. If a judge decides a miniature does not look appropriate then it many not be used, and must be removed from a players army.
  • If you are unsure that a proxy model will be acceptable, please email a picture to tournaments@epic-uk.co.uk prior to the list submission deadline and the TO will make the decision.

Painting and Basing
  • Armies must be fully painted and based.
  • To comply with this requirement all models in a player's army must be fully painted. This means at least two colours and bases must be painted in a single colour or flocked. Unpainted models will be removed from a player's army.
  • Models must be based according to section 1.1.2 of the Epic Armageddon rulebook.
  • Note that you do not have to base vehicles or warengines, although many players do. If you choose to base vehicles or warengines the base should not be excessively large. Models that a judge deem to have excessively large bases will be removed from a players army.

GENERAL ENTRY CONDITIONS

Admission to any BHGS tournament is at the sole discretion of the organisers and their decision on all matters is final. If any entrant breaches these rules, commits a criminal offence, causes disruption during the competition (including to public, traders or staff at the venue) or causes or threatens to cause damage to property at the venue the BHGS’s representative on the day will be entitled in his or her absolute discretion to require that player to leave the competition and the venue immediately, without any refund.  In such cases we are likely also to refuse entry to future events
