Wednesday, July 26, 2000 - ClanWar at GenCon 2000

Pre-approving armies does not guarantee event registration - players must still register for the event through the normal convention registration process. However, players who do pre-approve armies are allowed an extra 50 koku for the army (When you submit your army to be pre-approved, it may be 2050 Koku). Armies that are approved on-site or that require modification for approval on-site must be 2000 Koku or less. Armies should be submitted by email or postal mail to Geoffrey Schaller at the address below. Entries must be received no later than the Saturday before the convention, to allow for time to approve them.

All Tournament Rules will be in effect. Please visit Clanwar.com and Kyuden Hida for more information:

GEN CON EVENTS:

You Kill It, You Keep It - Bring your 1000 pt army and take on AEG and the Bounty Hunters! Win figures for the destruction and havoc your forces cause.

Thunder's Challenge (Day of Thunder) - This is the opening tournament for the Thunder's Challenge storyline event which will be continued in stores in the Fall, as a multi-part climax to the Clan War saga. The Tournament will be in two separate 16-player sessions (Friday and Saturday), with the final round (1st place from Friday vs. 1st Place from Saturday) taking place in the AEG Booth on Sunday.

* Daimyo Edition Rules will NOT be used at Gen Con. *

NOTE REGARDING L5R CCG FINALS: Because the L5R CCG Finals Qualifiers will be conflicting with the Friday Events, we ask that all NON-CCG players try to get in on Friday, to allow for CCG Players who did not qualify to play on Saturday.

NOTE REGARDING WALK-INS: We do get a few drop-outs at each event, and can usually take walk-in players. Players who did not pre-register may sign up at the event on a first-come, first-serve basis, and may use generic tickets to enter if slots are available. (This is most likely to happen at Gen Con due to the CCG Qualifiers.)

NOTE REGARDING PICK-UP GAMES: As Players are eliminated from the Tourney, we will still have tables available to play on. Players who were eliminated or could not make it into the Tourney are welcome to play pick-up games on the AEG tables as they become available.

Date: Friday and Saturday

Time: 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM (4 rounds, 2.5 hours each) + Final Round on Sunday at 10:00am
Players: 16 Each Day
Cost: $5
Event #: TBA (Fri) and 2463 (Sat)

The Friday Round is a late addition - if you cannot pre-register for it, admittance will be on a First-Come, First-Serve basis using $5 in Generic Tickets.

Send Army submissions to:

Geoffrey Schaller
nezumi@darkedge.com
310 S. Easton Road, A206
Glenside, PA 19038-3940

You may submit armies as Text, Word, Excel, or Army Builder data files.

Email is preferred, but not required.

Please include your full name, email, postal address, and a telephone number so Geoff can contact you to notify you if your army has been approved or if it needs modification.

Remember, pre-approving armies does not guarantee event registration - players must still register for the event through the normal convention registration process. However, players who do pre-approve armies are allowed an extra 50 koku for the army (When you submit your army to be pre-approved, it may be 2050 Koku). Armies that are approved on-site or that require modification for approval on-site must be 2000 Koku or less.

USING ARMY BUILDER: The Clan War data files have a few minor bugs. To be completely safe, please double check your armies against published force profiles and errata on Kyuden Hida. With the release of AB v2, the Clan War data files will include all of the new Daimyo Edition force profiles and rules. Don't use the latest (v2) Clan War data files for Empire in Flames, which will use original Clan War forces and rules.

Email Entries must be received no later than the Saturday before the convention, to allow for time to approve them. Geoff will make every attempt to get in touch with you if there is a problem with your army (and will also confirm with you if it is approved), but the more time he has to do this, the more time you will have to make revisions if they are needed, and re-submit your army. Armies may also be submitted in writing at the AEG Booth up to the day before the tourney and still receive the 50 Koku Bonus. Armies submitted the day of the event are not eligible for this bonus.
