Tournament Rules:
-5 games over the course of two days, which will include 5 rounds of Swiss pairing, Champion will be based on points only, so your record only goes so far.
-Weather will be rolled for by the top table at the beginning of each round. The weather result will apply to everyone’s games.
-Any official team in the CRP are welcome, as well as the three new races, Slann, Chaos Pact, and Underworld Creepers.
-Rosters are TV 1250k, (includes skills purchased see below)
-Tournament will be a resurrection style tournament. So any injuries your team suffers will not carry over to the next game, and any SPPs they earn will also be erased. The roster you start the tournament with will be the same for each round you play.

Illegal Procedure:
In the spirit of good sportsmanship, Illegal Procedures will not be called. The 4-minute turn rule will not be strictly enforced. But if the Tournament Referee feels the game may not finish in the 2-hour time allotted, he may insist you use a timer and begin enforcing the 4-minute rule.
Dice: Before each match you and your opponent should agree on one set of dice to share throughout the match. You both should also agree on cocked dice rulings before the match. Blocking dice should be either GW, or NAF dice only.

35 points for a Win
15 points for a Tie
5 points for a Loss
Bonus points:
+ 1 point per SPP
+ 1 for a non SPP casualty (this will include all casualties that your opponent receives during the match, meaning failed GFI's and dodges, crowd pushes, throw rocks, etc.)

20,000 New Skill
30,000 Skills that can only be taken on doubles
30,000 +MA or +AV
These are the only improvements you may choose.
Painting and Modeling requirements:
All teams are expected to meet the minimum painted guidelines. They must have 3 colors on them and no metal showing. Numbers should be painted on both the front and back of base. Non standard or converted minis are acceptable, but we must be able to easily tell the positions apart. You will not be allowed to proxy minis in any way that can confuse an opponent, such as “This woodelf lineman is actually my catcher.†If you need to borrow models or a team, there are several people that may be able help you out with that, don't be afraid to ask.
Sportsmanship:
We are here for the fun of the game. Sportsmanship is not encouraged from the coaches, it is required!
To make sure that everyone who attends will have fun the Tournament official will issue a warning to anyone who is taking away from the fun environment we are looking for. If the behavior continues you will be asked to leave the tournament. Arguing with the tournament organizer or in any way disrespecting them can also result in a warning. An important note on sportsmanship. Fouling 16 turns in a row and running up the score is not poor sportsmanship. But gloating and ridiculing your opponent while doing so is. Remember we are here to have a good time.
NAF:
This event will be NAF sanctioned
(If you don’t know what the NAF is go to http://thenaf.net for more info)

I am sorry to report that due to some personal circumstances I am going to need to reschedule the Iron Mike tournament.
I am looking at sometime early next year, maybe around St Patty's.
