The Britcon Bolt Action Tournament has been designed to provide a range of challenges for players, with a mix of different scenarios and points sized games being fought across a 3-day weekend. The event is a competition, but the emphasis is very much on social gaming.
The Warlord Games team will be onsite throughout with a full trade presence and supporting the competition. Warlord Games will be providing special prizes for the competition, and this will include Britcon counting as one of the "qualifying" events in the national series of Bolt Action Tournaments, culminating in a very special Bolt Action event to be held at Warlord Games Towers later in the year
The East Manchester Wargames group will kindly be providing some terrain for the competition, but there is an option for players to provide their own terrain – see website for details.

Presentation
Friday's Pickup Games. Any games played on Friday night will not necessarily go towards your overall score for the competition but you will have the opportunity to drop your lowest score from the weekend and replace it with one of the scores from Fridays pickup games. This means players unable to make Friday night will not lose their chance of winning, but those that can arrive on Friday will get more games, and a slightly better chance of recording a higher score
