In light of the popularity of 1-day Bolt Action events this year we have tweaked the format for Britcon so that you can now play Bolt Action at Britcon as either a 1-day or 2-(and a bit) day event (with separate prizes on each day).
The "2 and a bit days" format of Britcon allows us to offer almost a 1939-45-esque fully extended event in which competitors will be able to play a wide variety of scenarios throughout the weekend, taking full advantage of the flexibility and scalability of the Bolt Action ruleset.
Both Saturday & Sunday can be entered and played as a stand-alone one day tournament, but players can also enter for the full weekend (including games on Friday evening). All players (both one day and full-weekend entries) will be matched against each other over the course of the event, and all entry fees include the £5 voucher to spend with any of our traders (ie Warlord Games!)
The event(s) will feature
750 point pick-up games on Friday evening (as many as you can fit in - arrive anytime from 6pm!)
Two 1,000, and one each of 1,250 and 750 point games on Saturday, starting at 8:30am and running through until 7pm
One each of a 1,000, 1,200 and 750 points game on Sunday starting at 8:30am, and running through until 4:30pm
Games will (generally) be 2 hours apart from the 1500 point games that will be 2 ½ hours, all games will be scored using the BHGS score sheet.
