The website has all the information.
This year is a big deal guys. We convinced them that if they went to a 2 day tournament and offered 5 games they would get more players.
So I'm hoping for a turnout large enough to prove that the Chaos Cup deserves GW's effort and that it can be a 2 day event.
http://www.thechaoscup.com has all the information on the tournament
Could someone please make this sticky and de-sticky the GenCon one ... thanks.

I'd love to, but no promises.
(I'll chat it up with my Niagara Clan/TBBF see if anyone will be attending...)

Will the Chaos cup be using the mutation rule that were used in the Death Cup and the Philly Phrakus which allows Chaos (and Nurgle) teams to take mutations as regular skills?
Please say yes!

That would rock! I would think that if GW put something in the US version of White Dwarf magazine and on the GW website that maybe the good word would spread faster..... but that would be too easy 
I already pre-registered and looking forward to the 2 day 5 game format. Not to get off topic, but I really hope that the feedback from Gencon as far as rating of sportsmanship will be used in this event (the 1 to 3 with only 1 high ranking).
Also, the Chaos Cup coin looks awesome! |

JayLazer and myself had our Tourney plugged in White Dwarf...I can't see why they wouldn't include a blurb about their own major. You just can't assume that they would do this on their own...Blood Bowl not being their top priority and all.
I'm not sure when the date of the Chaos Cup is taking place, but if you have 6 weeks to 2 months left, they would probably put something in.
Galak...OMM...Maybe this might be worth dropping a line to Jervis about.

Galak,
Good to see that you have included the rules for Chaos mutations as normal skills. If I make it then I will DEFINITELY be bringing my Rotters!
Just a note - Gken made mention that in the other tourneys, claw was not allowed to be given to Big Guys, you may want to make note of that in the rules.
Hope to see you there!

Hey Tom. Found a typo in the sportsmanship section that could be confusing.
Quote: You do not have to award any 3 rating if you do not feel any players desire it and likewise you may award more than one 3 rating if you had more than one poor sportsman
The first "3" should be "1". |

As for Claw and BGs. I'll just make it like Block for Big Guys for the tournament ... you can give it out but it takes a doubles to do so.

Fixed ... BGs need doubles to get Claw or RSC.

Change to make only blocking CAS count for CAS... and that's it for rules changes ... I'm done.
Final rules posted assuming GW doesn't make me change them.
AND PLEASE note this is an official GW tournament ... so GW only figs allowed just like the Blood Bowl.

They should make exceptions if they have any GW piece in them (i.e. Ard Boyz Shoulder Pad)  |
