The GROTS (Greater RedDeer Organisation for Tactical Silliness) gaming club and BB league are proud to present the third annual GROTS Kup being held at Comusoft-the Games Store at 2067A 50th (Gaetz) AVE in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada.
The format will be a four round league style, meaning that there will be no resetting of rosters after each game or automatic skills given. Players will earn SPPs and will increase skills as per normal league rules. Death and injuries will affect teams as normal and winnings after the match will be generated as normal league rules.
LRB 5.0 rules wil be used so inducements, journeymen, star players, and mercenaries are all available.
Rosters will be TV 110 to start, though you may save up to 100K of that to spend on inducements for the first match only, therefor a minimum of one million GPs have to be spent on the starting roster (though you may spend all 1100K on the roster, you do not HAVE to save any for inducements).
Bring your own boards, templates and dice if you have them along with your team and 2 copies of the roster. Teams should be painted to at least a 3 colour standard, based and clearly numbered. Points are awarded for painting so you won't get those points for showing up with an unpainted team.
You may use your own dice but must allow an apponant to use them if he wishes (don't bring any dice you don't want others to touch) 
Standard d6s only, none with a symbol one one side instead of a number.
Impact combp block/d6 dice can be used.
There will be prizes for the overall champion and runner-up. As well there will be prizes for most TDs (Greedy GROT award ) and most CAS caused (Killa GROT award).
Best Team (Artsy GROT) award will be not only for best painted but conversions, basing and any extra work done will be taken into account.
Best Defence ('Ard GROT) award will be given to the coach who has the lowest amount ot TDs scored against him.
The most sporting prize (Sporty GROT award) will go to the coach with the most sportmanship points (awarded by the other coaches).
Lastly there will be a consolation prize for the coach who suffered the most CAS against him, Da Weedy GROT award.
The schedule for the day will be as follows;
9:00-10:00am Registration
10:00-12:00 Game One
12;00-12:30 Lunch
12:30-2:30pm Game Two
2:30-3:00pm Break
3:00-5:00pm Game Three
5:30-5:30pm Break
5:30-7:30pm Game Four
7:30-8:00pm Awards presentations
Along with trohpies, there will be prizes supplied by Impact! Minatures, Heresy Minatures, Hasslefree Minatures, and possibly GW.

Another update;
Points are as follows;
5 points for a win
3 points for a tie
1 point for a loss
0 points for a forfiet or concession
Games must be finished in the 2hour time limit as the post game sequence must me done (roll for winnings, new skills, hire journeymen, etc). All rolls MUST be witnessed by your opponant or they won't count.
Any games that do not get finished in the time limit will suffer a -1 penalty.
Painting poings will be a maximum 6 points
1 point for minimum 3 colours
1 point for highlighting, shading, etc.
1 point for basing (flock is a minimum, painting bases green is not enough)
1 point for clear numbering (on base or model)
2 points for overall impression (includes conversions if any, any extra effort and quality workmanship in painting, basing, and/or converting)
Converted minis must look like the race intended and must have easily recognised positions (this can include base rings). Any star players used must be the offical models or an uniquely converted model of the SP's race. Negative points may be earned if there is an overall negative impression (using proxy figs, unpainted, un-numbered or not clearly numbered, etc) which will be up to the decression of the judges.
The Bwst Team award be voted on by all coaches by ballot. The top 3 best teams will be picked by judges (they will have to meet the requirements for the painting points) and it will be these that will be voted on for the prize.
Sportsmanship
After the 4 rounds are played, each coach will rate their opponants, giving the best sporting cooach 4 points and ranking the rest in order down to 1 for the lest sporting. |

| Those who may be attending please let me know what you think about having a starting team value of 110. I am thinking of doing this for the tourney. Teams would have to spend at least 1 milliion GP, and sould save the extra 100K but it would have to be used to buy inducements for the first game. Of course you could spend 1.050K on your team and use 50K for inducements, or spend all 1100K for the starting roster). |

| Though I have had no comments, I have decided that I will go with the TV 110 starting rosters and will edit the main tourney info. |

The tourney was played yesterday, with 10 people attending (down 2 from last year). Sean Conrad (Balbaroy) won the event and Dave Sutton (Da Scum) was runner-up. I'll post some pics and more info later on today.
BTW, though I got all the NAF member's NAF numbers, I forgot to get everyone's username (the only 2 I know are the ones mentioned above), so I can enter the results until I get them. So please, NAF members who attended please let me know what your username is so that I can get the results posted in the ranking system.
Thanks. |

Well I know Rick French goes under Wolfhowl if that helps, not sure about the others.
We all had a blast and look forward to bringing even more screaming and gooning fans down for the next one! 
Right now I'm having to deal with a player "Hack" who now insists that he gets his own "tray" inside the minatures case...sheesh he has ONE good tournament and now there's ego problems.  |

Thanks Dave, I remember that Rick told me his username yesterday, but I forgot it.
I do need Sheldon Towey's username, maybe you could ask him.
Anyway, instead of posting all the pics again here, just follow the link to TBB to view the pics. You can leave comments here or there, whatever you wish.

As far as using league style for tournaments, I probably won't do it agian, just to cut down on the time with the pre and psot match stuff. The inducements seemed to the job, didn't see anyone getting totally creamed becasuse they took alot of CAS. The guy with the most CAS against finished in the middle of the pack (5th), while the guy with the least CAS against (he played orc) finished one above him (4th).
If you have the extra time for the pre and post match stuff, there's no real reason against not using a league style tourney, comes down to personal taste, I guess. |
